    Traveling with CPAP

    Unfortunately I have to use a CPAP machine. The home unit takes up half of one of the side compartments. I was hoping someone here has found a travel size unit that doesn't take up as much space.

    I don't use one but a Buddy does. He seems to travel ok with his. Maybe you could Google for CPAP or Compact CPAP and see what comes up. Good luck!

    I travel with mine on the bike. I don't sleep well without it.

    CPAP.com has a travel size that is extremely small. Your mask is probably bigger than the unit. I too have to travel with a CPAP but I just strap mine to my luggage rack on the back.

    Cool

    You should maybe be able to take yours in half and leave the water part at home.... Really a nonissue for travel...I put mine on a towel in the bag so it has a cushion and have never had an issue.

    I like that one, I've been on a CPAP for over 30 yrs and have 3 machines. My Remstars are all 110v/12v so that is what I take on the road. I have used it camping, my VTX1800 battery will run it for 4 hrs and still start the bike.

    Here is pic of Z1. That is one small machine for sure

    Thanks guys, I never travel alone and the wife loves to pack extra stuff. One of the smaller ones may be the ticket.
