Does S9 ADAPT do all that an S9 VPAP does ...and used prices
After getting and reading good advice here on AB, I have been looking for an Air Curve vauto or an S9 VPAP, but have opportunity to get an ADAPT for under $400. I await word on RUN Hours and smoke free usage. If the ADAPT does all the VPAP can do and, therefore, can do more, what would an adviser here say the maximum number of hours might be to pay a private party up to $400?
As far a I know, I don't need an ASV with my AHI of 0.1 and below. Typically scored events are now down to a single OA, CA or HA, but I have lots of FL and Snore, maybe PLM, and think sleep could be much more restful. Breathing (not yet sleep) test results will be reviewed with a sleep specialized pulmonologist on 4/4.
I have been checking Secondwind, too.
Thank you for considering this and for AB.

I have no particular qualifications or expertise with respect to the apnea/cpap/sleep related content of my posts beyond my own user experiences and what I've learned from others on this site. Each of us bears the burden of evaluating the validity and applicability of what we read here before acting on it.
Of my 3 once-needed, helpful, and adjunctive devices I have listed, only the accelerometer remains operative (but now idle). My second CMS50I died, too, of old age and the so-so Dreem 2 needs head-positioning band repair--if, indeed, Dreem even supports use of it now.

Adapt is the ASV version and different. I'd wait till after your sleep study and may need a vauto or vpap. Your pressures aren't that high and they may think a cpap is better.

There is a wide range of S9 VPAP machines and they all do something different. For this reason it's important to have the test results and know which particular machine you need. The list of machines sold in the US includes:
