[Equipment] Recommended compatible sd cards & sd card reader for Resmed AirSense 10 AutoSet

[UncollapseMeThroat]

Hi All,

I'm new to CPAP; as the title says, I'm wanting recommendations for compatible sd cards and an sd card reader for my Resmed AirSense 10 AutoSet.

Hi UncollapseMeThroat -  

Any SD card 2Gb to 32Gb will work.  SD card readers are a "Dime-a-Dozen" and are sold almost everywhere that sells other computer related items.  About the only difference that I've found between them is some of the lesser expensive models don't have the Write Protect switch installed.  That isn't a deal breaker for your model CPAP.  

I hope I've answered your questions.

OK, thanks!  I was going to pick up a reader today at Walmart, but then saw bad reviews and comments that the reader fried their SD cards.  I think I'll still go with a better reader, though.  I installed the SleepyHead software today, so I'm eager to see more sleep data from what the cpap machine provides each morning.

I bought one from Amazon that has been working fine to let my Easy Compliance software read the data my Apex ICH Auto puts on my 4GB card. I don't think I'm allowed to pose the link but Amazon has a good review system so you should be able to find one you like.

[UncollapseMeThroat]

Thanks, groggygirl. I bought a reader yesterday at Amazon that had good reviews. The price was good, too, so I actually paid shipping (gasp, LOL) to have it arrive today.

[groggygirl]

LOL, Uncollapse! I think I paid the extra for 1-day delivery for both the mask and the eventual nasal pillows I ordered there. From what I'm reading here, I think it's time to order new cushions for the pillows, too, although they are still reasonably comfortable.

I have a FlashAir 32 GB card and use FlashPap to wirelessly transmit CPAP data to my computer. It's really convenient, and highly recommend considering this card! There are some steps to setup the card and making it work with FlashPap, but once it's up and running it's great! You can search the board for more information about FlashPap.

[UncollapseMeThroat]

Wow, yeah, thanks for the wireless info, Coffee Man.  I'll check it out.

Yeah, groggy girl, only our cpap crap would cause us to actually pay shipping, when needed, LOL.

[UncollapseMeThroat]

OK, so I did a bit of poking around for the FlashAir SD card and FlashPap - for sure I'll look more into this.  

Is there a fee (monthly or annually) for the wireless data transmission?

Just send all your money to the Apnea Board, we'll make sure it gets to the correct place.  

Seriously No, the FlashAir and FlashPAP are allowing a wireless device (FlashAir) to connect to your network and allow for the downloading of sleep data.
