Unplugging the machine
This seems a dumb question, but I'll ask to make sure I'm not overlooking something. Are there any bad effects if I plug and unplug my resmed 11 everyday? Space is tight and it would be nice to have it out of the way after I'm up.

I'm sure the machine would be fine, but I'm wondering in terms of the sd card, the data on it, time synching, Oscar, or anything I can't imagine.

RE: Unplugging the machine
It may hinder writing to the SD card if you unplug soon after waking. If you use humidifier then it may not cool itself enough. I'm not sure about the clock on the 11s.
