RE: New member introduction
@TomM - Welcome to the forum. For your machine (same as mine), the SD that comes with it is a 2GB, made by Lexar, part number 1063859. For less than replacement cost, I bought a 16GB high speed SDHC UHS-I Class 10, 30 MB/sec. It worked fine in our machine.

If I had to replace it at this point, I probably would buy a Wireless SD card (also UHS-I Class 10), though more expensive, to allow transfer to my computer without the frequent card ins and outs.

QAL

ps. my 16GB apparently has enough capacity for 750 years of CPAP data.

I can't tell you about the other stuff, but when I wash my brother's tube, I just hang it over a hanger in the bathroom. Unless a very humid day, it is usually dry pretty fast because there is no place for water to pool.

RE: New member introduction
Another thing you can do to dry the tube is to hook it up to the PAP and turn the machine on. Let it blow dry the tube.
