CPAP off grid setups ?

Here is how long the Golabs battery lasted with the humidifier turn off on my Resmed auto set 10 cpap machine.

Night / Hrs.slept. / Battery% used
1 - 8:17 - 21
2 - 8:13 - 22
3 - 9:01 - 23
4 - 8:51 - 23
. ........ 11 remains

Im pretty happy with the little unit that only weighs 8lbs. Also I had a note in the box when I first opened it and it said contact support for a gift. So I emailed them and there sending be a carrying case for the unit.

After I read about the battery technology for this unit compared to other brands this was the clear winner especially with the $100 off coupon.

Also you have to use the DC to Dc converter if your cpap is 24v like Resmed. It you use the AC inverter part of the power pack you will not get as many hrs. because the inverter itself uses power.

Also the units cig lighter socket is the incorrect size but they give you an adapter that makes everything work. I suspect it was a design flaw that was missed.

So there you have it hose heads.........Breathe on!

 

Seems to be a solid little unit for the price.

Now that I have this unit, I needed to find my roundtoit and get the solar panel installed on the truck.

Took one of the old 80 watt panels and made some brackets.





Late day charge test, panel was charging at 30watts average. Factory 120v brick was doing 44 watts.

 

We got to use the golabs powerpack on our recent trip.

The breathing machine used about 50% battery each night. The 80watt solar panel mounted flat on the roof was charging between 10 to 36watrs depending on solar exposure and one day with full sun charged from 53% to 100% in roughly 4 hours.

 

Where you using the converter part of the power pac or the 12volt socket?

 

We don't have a DC power supply for the machine. So it was the 120v to 24v supply.

 

Golabs just sent me this carrying case. When I bought the power supply there was a card in the box that said email for a free gift. So this is the free gift I assume. They now have a $80 off coupon on Amazon, it use to be a $100 off. Still a great deal.
