High voltage causing false readings
our house power has been too high for I don't know how long. It is supposed to be 120 and the power company said we were at 144. They changed the transformer and all is good now except for the appliances that blew out. Good news the cpap is ok (I think).

The question is, can the past data be off?
CPAP is a journey like “The Wizard of Oz”. It’s a long slow journey. You will face many problems and pick up many friends along the way. Just because you reach the poppies, it doesn’t mean you are in Kansas.

No. The power supply converts the AC voltage to regulated DC voltage to operate the electronics.

and, it doesn't care if it's 110vac, or 240vac.
