Description
Quick answer: This is the Sunset Portable Outlet CPAP battery (CAP1600X9) — a universal backup battery that works with any CPAP or BiPAP machine (any brand) without special adapters or cables. You simply plug the unit into the wall and plug your device’s normal power cord into the battery; if the power goes out, it instantly keeps your therapy running (like a UPS). It has a standard 3-prong AC outlet, USB-A + USB-C ports, and a color display, powers a CPAP for about 8–10 hours (BiPAP 7–9; travel CPAPs 14+), and is TSA/FAA approved for air travel. ~3 lbs, recharges in under 4 hours. No prescription required.

About this battery
Most CPAP batteries need device-specific DC cables and adapters. The Portable Outlet takes a simpler, universal approach:
- Universal — any CPAP/BiPAP — a standard 3-prong AC outlet means you plug in your machine’s existing power cord, no proprietary adapters. Works with ResMed, Philips Respironics, Fisher & Paykel, DeVilbiss, 3B/React Health, and more.
- UPS / AutoSwitch — keep it plugged into the wall with your CPAP plugged into it; if the power fails, it switches over instantly and your therapy continues uninterrupted.
- Runtime — about 8–10 hours for a CPAP, 7–9 hours for a BiPAP (average pressure, standard tube, low humidity). Travel CPAPs get 50% more (14+ hours). Add a second battery for longer runtime or to support a heated tube / high humidity overnight.
- Pure sine wave — safe, clean power across devices.
- USB-A + USB-C (3.0A) — charge a phone and tablet at the same time as running your CPAP.
- Portable — ~3 lbs, ~6″ × 9″ × 1.5″, with a color display for charge status and a travel bag; recharges in under 4 hours; rated for 500+ charge cycles.
- Travel-ready — TSA/FAA approved for carry-on air travel.
- Multi-purpose — can also power a laptop, radio, or TV as an emergency power source. Optional solar panel or car charger (CAPDC2AC) for off-grid/extended outages.

Frequently asked questions
Which machines does it work with?
Any CPAP or BiPAP, any brand — you plug in your machine’s existing AC power cord (no special adapters). That includes ResMed, Philips Respironics, Fisher & Paykel, DeVilbiss, 3B/React Health, and more.
How does the UPS feature work?
Keep the battery plugged into the wall with your CPAP plugged into it. If the power goes out, it switches over instantly (AutoSwitch) and your therapy continues without interruption.
How long does it run?
About 8–10 hours for a CPAP and 7–9 for a BiPAP at average settings; travel CPAPs get 14+ hours. A heated tube and high humidity use more power — add a second battery for those.
Can I fly with it?
Yes — it meets TSA/FAA guidelines for air travel. (Being a lithium battery, carry it in your carry-on.)
Can it charge my phone too?
Yes — USB-A and USB-C (3.0A) can charge devices while it runs your CPAP.
