Maynard, thanks for the data. I didn't see a similar plate on my machine.

Most machines sold nowadays include heated humidification -- even some
insurance companies now admit heated humidification improves compliance
and reduces side effects. It is the draw of the heated humidifier that
concerns me.

If I try dropping a hook. I will probably try using my humidifier as a
passover type (no heat) to save on the amps. But only if I have to.


Bob says he thinks he remembers that there's a free dock in Queenstown
that one can use for a couple of hours. We've never gotten in there
so I don't know for sure, and I also don't know if there is
electricity.

My wife's machine is a c-pap without heated humidification so I didn't
think of that. I was just thinking about the fan draw.

You might look in your machine's documentation or check out their
website if they have one. You should be able to find out how many 12
volt amps your equipment (fan and heated humidification) draws.
At least then you would know for sure if you are going to have a
problem.
