Question CPAP Prepped

[DEWEY A]

I have a new Jayco Eagle 284BHOK. Specs say it is CPAP Bedroom Prepped. What does that mean? The outlets are not hot when running on battery.

I'm guessing: 1. There is an outlet inside the storage bin that is over your head when you're lying in bed. Nothing special about this outlet. And, (2), there is a hole cut into the floor of said bin to allow the hose to exit.

All of this lets the CPAP sit in the overhead bin instead of beside the bed.

SUGGESTION!! Deep 6 the CPAP machine and get yourself a INSPIRE device installed.
Supper easy to use and takes all the worries out about having power or location for a CPAP machine.
Only worry? Enough AA batteries to run the remote for a period of time.
The worries are over!!

Dewey,
It's just as Av8r said. And as you implied, the outlet is not hot while on battery power, so running your CPAP is a non-starter unless you're on shore power or generator.

You have the device? Can I ask how long you have? I've thought about it, I need to lose some weight to qualify but thinking ahead.

Yes, have had it going on 2 years. It is truly awesome and anyone with a CPAP machine and doesn't attempt to get Inspire is missing out on a HUGE quality of live improvement!
There are those that have sleep apnea and just blow it off. They DO NOT understand the health implications of not treating it. It is life threatening over time!!

Not everyone can quality. Weight, makeup of how your throat is put together etc.
It is beyond awesome! Click on go to sleep and wake up, click off!

Good Luck. Not sure a sleep specialist can/will help. My understanding is that a ENT has to be the one that does the exam to see if your throat and nasal passage is not deformed in some way that would prevent the Inspire to not work correctly. You will see a sleep specialist after it is installed.
After the ENT outpatient procedure to install the device, you have to wait for a month to heal. Then a trip into the sleep specialist to see an Inspire Specialist to activate it. Then 3 months later, a sleep study is done to insure that the device is in fact working properly. You will also have to have a current sleep study done before your ENT visit to see if you in fact have sleep apnea. I had to go into a sleep study location on premise for the sleep study.
It is a lot of hoops to jump thru but when done, you will be VERY happy.
Good luck and post your results!! Trust me, you will NOT be sorry!!!
