    Where & how do you put your CPAP in the hammock. I have a Warbonnet Blackbird… would it be too heavy to put in the storage area?-about 7 lbs. with battery. Or type of bag to attach above the head.

    Modified WBBB

    I had Brandon install a triple zipper in mine so I could hang it on RL and pass the power cord through the zipper. If your batter is small enough, I guess you could hang both on the RL. I use Velcro double sided tape from REI and small S binners to secure to RL.

    I have two power sources, small 12 hr batter from CPAP.COM and a multiple night external batter. That I use for car camping. Can also recharge the small pack with it using DC to AC converter.

    Not sure if you tried this but I just did a search on here for CPAP and came up with these threads which may be of interest to you, that is unless you already read these, then sorry-

    It is mentioned in one of the other threads perhaps, but the short version is this;

    Small staff sack of net material used as a peak bag at the head end holds the cpap.
    (I have also just put the cpap in the shelf of the wbbb but prefer the peak bag)

    Small stuff sack containing battery is clipped to ridgeline with mini biners.

    Have used this setup approx 200 times.

    Cpap is Respironics w/ dehumidifier detached.
    Battery is 220 from cpapbattery.com
