| "J. P. Gilliver (John)" <G6JPG@255soft.uk>: Jul 03 09:58PM +0100 What do you look for in a portable battery backup for medical devices (like CPAP)? My county is offering a discount/rebate on a Portable Battery Backup <https://energyservices.org/psps/> They offer the following portable battery backup units, where I want the most bang for the buck - but I don't even know what to look out for. Do you know anything about selecting portable battery backup devices?

But what is the MINIMUM spec of what you might want? I would want it to run CPAP (of course) overnight for a three day power outage (or so), and maybe charge a laptop and run a router and that kind of minimum emergency stuff. Great if it can run a refrigerator but that may be asking too much. |

You'll need a backup that supports the DC output voltage of your CPAP. Longevity depends on your CPAP pressure, humidifier settings and hours used. Both Amazon ads have charts estimating CPAP longevity for the backup. Maxoak CPAP backup/$298/Amazon - 297 watt-hours, cannot handle refrigerator power usage - https://is.gd/4ItXgy Anker PowerHouse 767 backup/$2000/Amazon - 2048 watt-hours, can handle refrigerator power usage for multiple days - https://is.gd/xr48KE |

If you want 3 days on your CPAP you should be considering a generator to charge the battery backup. First thing to do is determine the load you will have. |
