HERE'S WHAT I USE:
DBPOWER Portable Power Station, 250Wh 67200mAh Backup Lithium Battery 110V/250W (Peak 350W): https://amzn.to/3l5wqZF
If you use an AirSense 10, you'll need a cigarette lighter adapter: https://amzn.to/3hgN33f
And a DC converter. I use the KFD, since it's less than half the price of the official ResMed converter: https://amzn.to/3neVyzR
If you're on a DreamStation or DreamStation 2, this is the direct DC cable. No cigarette lighter adapter needed: https://amzn.to/2YFQx99

If you want to extend your battery life and run your CPAP without the humidifier, you might also want to pick up some Heat Moisture Exchangers, which will capture and return the moisture in your exhaled breath: https://amzn.to/3laONwf
**********************
If you want to go the deep-cycle battery route, a popular solution is the Universal Power Group 12V 100Ah Solar Wind AGM SLA DEEP Cycle VRLA Battery: https://amzn.to/3DZflcp
To use that with a DC converter or adapter, you'll need something like the CUZEC 12V/ 24V Extension Cord Plug Socket with Battery Clamp: https://amzn.to/3zVH0sr
Then you'll need a DC cable or converter.
For ResMed AirSense S9: https://amzn.to/3E2f6gu
For ResMed AirSense 10: https://amzn.to/3nbHebj
For Philips DreamStation or DreamStation 2: https://amzn.to/3nttSr9 (this one has the 90-degree elbow)
**********************
If you'd rather have a full-time battery backup solution, the Portable Outlet is popular and reasonably affordable: https://amzn.to/3nehAm9
For something with more backup power, the Zopec EXPLORE 8000 is a good but pricey choice. It should give you up to 12 hours of operation if you use humidity but not a heated hose. With a heated hose, too, it drops to more like 6 hours: https://amzn.to/2VqZOk5
