Do Forest River trailers come with a pure sine wave inverter.

My Respironics CPAP works without any issues in our Cedar Creek. Unless there is a CG power outage and that will wake you up very quickly trying to breath.

I use my CPAP in my Wildcat with 50 amp service and no problems. If I was boon docking I'm not sure how long I could run an inverter off the battery. But I could run the Honda genny to charge the battery before night fall and plug the inverter into the 12 volt system for the CPAP.

inverters are usually only standard in some motorhomes.
some 5th wheels may have them as an option.

but generally, no trailers come with an inverter nor have them as an option.

they are usually an aftermarket install.

X2. I suspect the posters above are simply running on campground 110VAC.

So the good news is that you can purchase exactly the inverter you want!

I run my cpap machine off the 12 volt in my trailer when boondocking.

I have a 150 watt plug in invertor just in case. The Respironics one I have has a external power supply birck. I checked it and it works.

I have been running my cpap in all of our campers for years now with zero issues. Our Viking pop up was well, a pop up and our Mallard TT did have the inverter actually start going out and never damaged my cpap. I have a res med S9. It's actually set up as a bi-pap now. Yeah, no more leaking mask!

I use a Phillips as you for a few years, have been camping longer than years using CPAP and have never had an issue on shore power or genny power(Cumins/Onan).
