Rachel, I think this one's obsolete now, but I know there's an answer for you and am just hoping someone else who knows more than me can comment. I know of a lady who wanted to sell this machine, but can't get parts now.

Hi Rachel
Why don't you tell us what it is you want and what you want to use it for. I'm guessing a battery pack but the typr of battery will depend absolutely on what you want to use it for - there are batteries for wild camping or a bedroom back-up and everything between the two, with a few dual purpose options thrown in.
Here are a few expensive options that can be used at the wild camping end of the spectrum, through during flying to bedroom. http://www.eu-pap.co.uk/products/power-options/universal-batteries....

Rachael, I don't know much about any of the generic pap units. Here in the states all we ever really see are the Resmed and Respironics units. Every now and then maybe a Fischer Paykel.
Judy is pretty good with the different machines as she has used most:

You can also go to the sister site and seek out a man named jnk.

These are the two that I go to when I have machine questions that I can't answer. Tell em I sent ya.

CPAP Total Face Mask
