An upgraded version of the P4 4-Cell battery System, the Transcend P8 Multi-Night 8-Cell Battery is an ultimate solution to CPAP Machine users. The P8 has more power and charging capacity than its predecessor and counts on more features. It weighs 1.1 pounds, which is slightly more than the P4, however, the performance is tuned to be better. The Transcend 8-Cell battery is designed for use with the Transcend II Sleep Apnea System (not with any other CPAP machine) and delivers over 14-16 hours of battery power on a full charge at a pressure level of 14 cm. Surprisingly it recharges very soon – within just 8 hours for a completely depleted battery.
Transcend P8 8-Cell Battery by Somnetics is the lightest, smallest, and easiest FAA approved CPAP batteries. These batteries resemble those of laptops/computers and do not have a humidifier heating element. You can use the Multi-Night Battery while you are away from home or just in case a power outage occurs. The Somnetics Transcend P8 Multi-Night 8-Cell Battery pack comes with an integrated charger that can be connected to the Transcend Solar Charger, the Transcend Universal AC Power Supply, or the Transcend DC Mobile Power Adapter. It is recommended to use the Transcend P8 Battery, 8-Cell System for patients who have been prescribed for pressures up to 19CM and lasts for 14-16 hours that serves more than a night of CPAP therapy to the users.
The intelligent battery system has a light that indicates the charging progress. While charging is on, the light shows orange and it turns to green when the battery is fully charged. The battery run time depends on the device’s pressure settings, altitude, atmospheric pressure, temperature, and many other factors. The manufacturer has checked the battery performance at a pressure of 14 cm H2O and discovered that the battery gives a run time of 14-16 hours which may vary for different pressure settings.
