Aircurve 10 vs 11

Aircurve 10 vs 11
I noticed that my AC 11 has a max pres setting of 21 versus 25 on my old AC 10? Anyone know why Resmed reduced the max pres?

I believe they use a smaller air pump in the 11.

ResMed literature shows a pressure max for the Vauto of 25 cmH2O. 

What are your current settings?

My current setting is for max of 21... When you open up in clinical mode it only allows 21 for max setting, (my AC 10 allowed up to 25). Check it out for yourself...  IDK?

OK, I went back and looked again and the menu scrolled down to show the max is in fact 25, (same as my old AC 11) I guess my finger touch was not picked up last time and it didn't scroll? Anyway all is good here thanks! Here is a useful link I found on the AC 11...

I noticed that the 'cool down' pressure coming out is only about half that came out on my AC 10 when turned off...
