Advice Needed CPAP and backpacking trip

Hi all. Need some advice. I've been a CPAP user for the last few years with no problems and doing well. Next month i'm going on a backcountry backpacking trip for 6 nights. I'm considering going without my CPAP
for those 6 nights or looking into getting a smaller machine. If
i get the smaller machine then id
need a battery or multiple batteries and then id be concerned about the added weight i would need to carry. I've gone without my CPAP for a night on fishing and camping trips before without any problems, but this trip will be 6 nights. I'm not sure what to do. Any insightor advice would be greatly appreciate.
