I have my BiPAP plugged into this. Not sure how long it will power the CPAP/BiPAP. Since I have had mine plugged in we've only lost power for a total of 10 minutes while using my BiPAP.

No. Run time won't go 6-8 hours.

Thank you for your inquiry. Our devices are designed to be ran with electronics like a computer, modem, and/or router. If the CPAP machine is motorized then it would not work with our small BackUPS products since the load would fluctuate so much. This unit would only support 255 watts so even if the equipment is under that amount it would not provide that much runtime. At full capacity you would get around 2 minutes of runtime and at half it would provide around 10 minutes.
