My CPAP's onboard humidifier failed.
I ended up swapping it out to a generic in-line CPAP humidifier, but at the same time, realized I could partially automate the process of refilling the chamber (and not have to keep unhooking hoses) by adding an in-line oxygen tee, some aquarium plumbing, a check valve, and a 12 volt pump and switch.
In the morning I just hold a button and the tank magically refills itself ;)

(Also: The Dreamstation, while recalled, was personally de-foamed and repaired myself -- I don't trust Philips any further than I can throw them now. I now self-service my gear.)
