The C-100 Battery Pack is compatible with most makes and models of PAP
devices; however, some devices will require the use of a power converter
or power inverter in conjunction with the Battery Pack.
The components included with the Battery Pack kit may not be compatible
with your PAP device as some manufacturers require the use of a specific
DC cable with built-in fuses or other special connection types. When in
doubt, please contact the manufacturer of your device.
Compatibility
ResMed Device Warning
If you are using any device manufactured by ResMed you must use
either a power converter or power inverter to complete the connection
between the device and the C-100 Battery Pack as newer ResMed devices
operate from a 24V direct current and the input plugs on older ResMed
devices run opposite polarity from other manufacturer devices.
DO NOT connect the Battery Pack directly to any ResMed model
device as doing so will damage the ResMed device. See pages 15-16
for connection instructions.
Intended Use
The C-100 Battery Pack is intended to provide external battery power to
PAP (positive airway pressure) devices.
The Battery Pack may also be used to power other small electronic
devices such as smartphones, iPods, laptops, and iPads (use of a sine
wave power inverter may be required). See page 19 for more information.
Please note that use of the C-100 Battery Pack with a device that requires
higher amperage requirements (over 8A) may cause the internal circuitry
of the Battery Pack to shut off to protect from overrun.

5
Battery Pack Run Times
Multiple factors will affect how long the Battery Pack will power a PAP
device, including, but not limited to device type (CPAP, BiLevel, AutoPAP,
etc.), pressure setting, altitude, humidifier usage, and if a power inverter
or power converter is required in conjunction with the Battery Pack.
BiLevel and AutoPAP/APAP devices will generally have lower run times as
the pressure setting is not constant and changes throughout the night
requiring more power to operate the device.
IMPORTANT NOTES ON HUMIDIFIER USAGE
The use of heated humidification or heated tubing will significantly
reduce expected run times and could prevent the Battery Pack from
being able to power the PAP device. To obtain optimal Battery Pack
performance we recommend you forgo the use of heated humidification.
Using cool or “passover” humidification will not reduce expected run times.
AVERAGE RUN TIMES
Run times listed below are based on Respironics System One and ResMed
S9 Series CPAP devices with no heated humidification or heated tubing.
RESPIRONICS AND OTHER 12V DEVICES
Single Battery Configuration: 1-3 nights
Dual Battery Configuration: 3-5 nights
RESMED AND OTHER 24V DEVICES
Use of a power converter or power inverter in conjunction with the
Battery Pack is required for ResMed and other 24V devices.
Single Battery Configuration with Power Inverter: 1 night
Single Battery Configuration with Power Converter: 2 nights
Dual Battery Configuration with Power Inverter: 2 nights
Dual Battery Configuration with Power Converter: 4 nights

Getting Started
TURNING THE BATTERY PACK ON/OFF
The Battery Pack turns on or off automatically when a device is plugged
into or disconnected from it. If the Battery Pack stops functioning, plug
the AC power supply into a wall outlet and then into the Battery Pack to
reset the internal circuitry.
INITIAL BATTERY PACK USAGE
Before using your Battery Pack for the first time be sure to charge it fully
using AC power (a wall outlet). During the initial charge, the Battery Pack
may indicate that charging is complete after just 10 or 15 minutes as the
Battery Pack is already charged before it leaves the factory.
USING THE BATTERY PACK INSIDE THE CARRYING CASE
The Battery Pack carrying case is designed with a clear access window
which allows the Battery Pack(s) to be used and/or charged while still
inside of the carrying case.
Simply place the Battery Pack in the carrying case with the control board
facing toward the clear access window and pull open the flap to insert the
appropriate connection cord into the Battery Pack.
Power Backup Usage
Standard smart chargers keep the Battery Pack topped off and ready to go
as an emergency power backup during power outages. If a power outage
is immenint or probable, you may connect the PAP device to the Battery
Pack and plug the Battery Pack into a wall outlet. In the event power is
lost the Battery Pack will automatically begin powering the device.
Do not consistently use the Battery Pack as a power backup option as
this will reduce its overall life as the Battery Pack will continue to
charge and recharge (charge cycles). Only use the Battery Pack in this
manner when a power outage is probable or imminent.

Powering Your PAP Device: Introduction
The C-100 Battery Pack will work with most makes and models of PAP
devices; however, the DC capability, voltage requirements and plug polarity
of the device will determine how it connects to the Battery Pack.
Some PAP devices can be connected directly to the Battery Pack via the
DC power pigtail cord; while others will require the additional use of a
power converter or power inverter in order to complete the connection
between the Battery Pack and the PAP device.
The following pages provide specific instructions for how to connect
the Battery Pack to Philips Respironics, ResMed, Fisher & Paykel, and
DeVilbiss PAP devices.
DO NOT attempt to connect the Battery Pack to a PAP device until
you have read and understand these connection instructions. Failure
to do so may damage the PAP device.
Powering Your PAP Device: Connector Tips
The C-100 Battery Pack kit comes with several different connector tips.
These tips are designed to fit many types of devices that offer DC capability.
If the PAP device can be connected directly to the Battery Pack, as with
Respironics and DeVilbiss PAP devices, one of the connector tips will need
to be used in order to connect the PAP device to the Battery Pack.
DETERMINING THE APPROPRIATE CONNECTOR TIP
Begin by comparing the connector tips provided with the Battery Pack
kit to the tip of the AC power supply of the PAP device. Choose the
connector tip that most closely matches.
Locate the DC input port on the PAP device and try to insert the
chosen connector tip. The connector tip should insert easily and should
not be forced into place.

13
Make sure the connector tip sits securely in the DC input port of the
PAP device. If the connector tip is loose try another one as you want to
avoid using a loose connector tip if there is a better match.
Once you have determined the best fitting connector tip, insert it
into the DC power pigtail cord and follow the connection instructions
for your specific device.

IDENTIFYING CONNECTOR TIPS
Once you have determined the appropriate connector tip for your device,
use one of the following methods for identifying that tip for future use:
Each connector tip has a very small letter
embossed on the top of the black plastic
portion of the tip (this letter can be
difficult to read but it is present).
Keep the connector tip you have chosen inserted into
the DC power pigtail cord.
Store the connector tip in a separate place away from the other tips.
