WINTER COMING....POWER OUTAGES???

[giftofsleep]

New CPAP user. Been looking for information about battery backup for winter power outages here in Maine. Seems like there is a lithium ion battery pack available for my machine but it costs hundreds of dollars!! Yikes! Did I miss a lower cost alternative? Any ideas?

I just went to search at the top of the page and entered battery as my search term; limited my search to titles and the main forum; plus requested it to display results as threads.
