I forgot to mention that Supplier #28 can replace the blower motor, reset the run hours and recalibrate your CPAP for around $220. That's a pretty good price for basically a new CPAP.

I found that I can buy a replacement motor for my 10 for $80, but I don’t think that just anyone can reset the motor hour warning. My 10 is my travel/backup machine now, I’ll run it till it dies a day or so a month.
I did get a 64gb SD card today and I just plugged it in. I’ll be interested to see what data gets collected.

Major progress last night, maybe someone can explain.
I replaced the smaller diameter heated hose with my larger diameter non-heated hose, I slept like a baby!
This is the first time since I’ve owned the 11 that I had a good night sleep. The pressure was comfortable, my chest doesn’t hurt, and leakage was almost non existent! I would say that my experience was 99% of my 10 unit that was so comfortable.
I also used my Phillips comfort gel mask last night. I’ve tried it with my 11 in the past and it didn’t resolve the issue, therefore the hose is the problem. Tonight I’m going to try the old hose with the new N20 mask and see what happens.
Obviously I lost heat in the hose and I didn’t alter the humidifier settings. Instead of going through an entire tank of water, I went through 1/3 of a tank. I’ll have to see if it defaulted to manual humidifier without the heated tube.
