Hoseless, cordless, battery powered CPAP

This is currently getting ready for production, they are about to launch a crowd-funding site to raise money to start production, until they start to make a profit. It's a very interesting concept, worth looking into

Saw this before and think it is a terrific idea! Hope it actually makes it into production!

I'd get in line for that!!  I'd even send money if I had any.

Main thing that worries me is the size of the nose plugs.   Looks like they could really give you a head ache even after they were fitted properly.

Where I really see potential is for hospitals-it costs a lot to use a hospital CPAP and they could potentially save a lot of money
if patients used them during a hospital stay and then took 'em home since they are disposable.

It will be interesting to see what happens.

The thing is if they can make like 3 million a minute (I think that's what I remember seeing), they should be able to sell them real cheap, so I see insurance companies choosing them over regular cpap. Then for those buying without insurance, they should be a lot easier to afford, I'm just guessing but you should be able to buy one that last months for what one month payment cost.
