QUESTION - HARDWARE
#1
QUESTION - HARDWARE
I have over five years of usage on my S10 Autoset and am eligible for a new machine.

I was wondering if anyone has voluntarily turned down an S11 Autoset and replaced their old machine with another S10? And why?

I am thinking about replacing my S10 with another S10 to preserve the use of my attached $800 pulse-oximeter.

Thanks,

Steve

>>> preserve the use of my attached $800 pulse-oximeter.

I think that's an excellent reason to stick with an AS10 !!!

Plus, you'll get a brand new 4G modem in a new one Big Grin

Steve, I also have the $800 pulse oximeter. It is so much easier than using some other units that is so small you cant even see the writing and then you have to manually import the data into Oscar.

I am not in need if a machine but you bring up a valid point. I have COPD so this is a very usable feature. I recently had a knee replacement and am on narcotics and I am using it it to make make my 02 is good.

I did a search on the Airsense 11 to see if it even has this function and nothing came up. Maybe you can answer that question.
If it does not have that capability I personally would request a Airsense 10.

Steve, you have one of the best reasons to get another A10 AutoSet instead of the newer A11. Go for it.
