    I have sleep apnea as well, I use a plug in inverter though to run mine, with the letter they will hardwire I think a 250 watt inverter for you, I just never bothered going back to get the letter telling them I need the machine on the road even though they got the paperwork showing I needed to use the machine....

    as for the hometime yeah just be stern with it, there were times when I was supposed to be home in 3 days and sitting in Oregon and they would try sending me to Montana, I would decline the load and tell them nope get me to CA for my hometime and it would happen. OTR I went home once a month, I recommend watching for dedicated accounts every chance you get, it took me 7 months to finally get on the Target account im on since last December but I make a lot more than I did OTR plus I get 2 days off a week and most other nights I go home if I do not decide to stay out for the night in my sleeper since I have to drive 2 hours round trip for home.
