... I'm a bit suspicious of this. Could it be a slick way to part people from their money? Because I know what folks I know go through to get the power to run their CPAPs at Boy Scout Camp, etc where there is no electricity. It doesn't run on AA/AAA type batteries. They are using boat sized batteries. And having to figure out how to recharge (Ie that battery doesn't last all week) And I am having problems seeing the miniaturization that would make the power fit in that tiny package.

I read about this a few weeks ago. I'm sure my DH would be thrilled if this is legit, but I am somewhat suspicious. If it is a legitimate medical device, especially one that would no doubt be snapped up by tons of people if effective, they shouldn't need to use crowdsourcing to get it produced.
