Last updated September 14, 2026. Not a lab test. Hours below are arithmetic: published watt-hours ÷ a cited device watt figure. We did not run a CPAP overnight. This is not medical advice.
Size the battery from two numbers: the machine’s watts, and the battery’s watt-hours.
ResMed’s AirSense 11 user guide lists a 65 W power supply, typical consumption 56.1 W, and peak 73.2 W. Use your own machine’s manual if you do not have an AirSense 11.
Hours ≈ battery Wh ÷ device watts.
An 8-hour night at ResMed’s typical 56.1 W needs 449 Wh of usable energy before inverter losses. Humidifier and heated hose sit inside that typical/peak range. They are not extra mystery watts. A DC 24 V PAP battery skips the inverter. An AC power station does not, so real AC hours will be shorter than the raw divide.
Current shortlist (makers’ Wh only)
Medistrom Pilot-24 Lite — 95 Wh, DC 24 V
Medistrom’s product page lists 95 Wh, DC 24 V at 3.75 A. It is a dedicated 24 V PAP battery, not a wall-outlet station. Medistrom says 1–2 nights with humidifier and heated tubing disabled. That is their claim, not a test we ran. At ResMed’s typical 56.1 W the raw divide is 1.7 hours.
Jackery Explorer 300 Plus — 288 Wh
Amazon listing for this Jackery ASIN has been soft-unavailable in recent checks — prefer Jackery US below.
Jackery’s US page lists 288 Wh and 300 W AC (model JE-300B). At 56.1 W the raw divide is 5.1 hours. That is short of an 8-hour humidifier night on the AC path.
Check Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 (Jackery US)
Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 — 1070 Wh
Jackery US publishes 1070 Wh, 1500 W rated AC (3000 W surge), two USB-C ports rated 100 W Max and 30 W Max, an 18 W Max USB-A port, and a 12 V⎓10 A car port. It uses LiFePO₄ chemistry and is rated for 4000 cycles to 70%+ capacity. At ResMed’s typical 56.1 W, the arithmetic is 1070 ÷ 56.1 ≈ 19.1 hours. That clears 449 Wh on paper on the AC path; real AC hours will be shorter than the raw divide. The official Jackery store showed the basic 1000 v2 kit Sold Out when checked September 14, 2026. Jackery’s FAQ says its portable power stations are not recommended for medical or life-support devices, so confirm suitability with your equipment maker.
BLUETTI AC70 — 768 Wh
Amazon listing is a station + 100 W panel kit.
BLUETTI’s US page lists 768 Wh and 1,000 W AC. At 56.1 W the raw divide is 13.7 hours. That clears 449 Wh on paper. The official store showed the unit out of stock when we checked August 21, 2026.
| Product | Path | Maker Wh | Hours at 56.1 W (arithmetic) | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Medistrom Pilot-24 Lite | DC 24 V | 95 | 1.7 | Medistrom |
| Jackery Explorer 300 Plus | AC | 288 | 5.1 | Jackery |
| Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 | AC | 1070 | 19.1 | Jackery |
| BLUETTI AC70 | AC | 768 | 13.7 | BLUETTI |
Confirm cable kits and machine voltage with the battery maker before you buy. See also our guides hub and portable power stations.
At ResMed AirSense 11 typical 56.1 W, 8 × 56.1 = 449 Wh before inverter losses. Use your machine’s own manual.
