While a $10 120 vac fan from WallyWorld may circulate the air just fine chances are if you try to run it using a MSW (modified sine wave) inverter it will either not work at all or if it does will squeal annoyingly, the reason being that fan motor was designed to run on a sine wave signal. The solution is easy, but costly - a pure sine wave inverter. Considering this, you'd be better off with a fan such as the Endless Breeze which is designed to run directly on 12 vdc and ignore the inverter entirely. I've never used a CPAP machine but it seems to me your best choice would to also use one that will run directly on 12 vdc and again, ignore using an inverter.
