    I can go to bed at 3, up at 5.

    After all of the years, getting up at 5, I cannot sleep past it. I cannot sleep during the day or before 11 at night.

    I'm sorry...what was the question, and where did I leave my sandwich???

    OH...since I've been using CPAP, I find between 6 1/2 and 8 is ideal. Can't even stay in bed any longer than that anymore, though I used to be quite proficient at it in my teen years.

    Do you have to idle to use your CPAP?

    I don't use the humidifier on the truck, only the air pump, so no, I don't have to idle while using it. Also just use the 12v outlet. I've done it this way for almost two years, but I just got a new truck and may have the sine wave inverter put in anyway,

    I use the humidifier at home, though.
