What is a portable oxygen concentrator (POC)?

A portable oxygen concentrator (POC) works like your home oxygen concentrator by extracting oxygen from room air, but it fits in a space about the size of a small suitcase.

POCs make long-term travel easy and convenient and are approved for use onboard many commercial aircraft. POCs come with rechargeable batteries and two different power cords, so they can be plugged into a regular electrical outlet or a car's auxiliary outlet.
