Thank you.  I just ordered it.  34.00 bucks.

If you're up to it, review it after a bit of use. It may be useful for other AB members. I plan on getting one sometime soon, just not this month. Budget already spent out more or less for this month.

I don’t think I’ll be wearing it again.   Earlier I did testing on it.   I tried loose.  Tight.  Medium tight. Lowered it on my nose.  Raised it higher on the nose. Tilted the top diff angles.  No matter what I did it leaked if I looked in any direction even a little. 
 I ordered the chinstrap.  My other mask should be here  tomorrow.  Till then I’ll use the simplicity.  Very comfortable.  Called bout my ResMed cpap.  It was waiting shipping address confirmation.  So supposedly it’s packed and ready but was waiting for me to confirm the address.  So still hopeful by Friday.  It’s shipping from 80 miles from here.

That was meant to mention you should review the Knightsbridge chin strap after use.


no snoring - Dugy40 - 07-08-2020

i made me a homemade chin strap. i notice no snoring for the first time. but rera and vb is up it seems. i zoomed in on some vb and rera so you could see if theyre real. i also wore my respironics simplicity nose mask which is comfortable. seems leaks are better? 
 will a resemed machine fix reras and variable breathing.i dont understand what those are. ive read bout them but dont really understand. is this sleep session decent considering the machine i have?i feel much better this morning than yesterday. i took 3 screen shots, a full one, one of rera's and one of vb's. thanks
Doug

Glad you feeling better, and I suspect that the Rera's will settle down with the new ReMed.

I know you've heard this before, but how you feel in the morning is more important. Smile


leak rate - Dugy40 - 07-09-2020

[attachment=24379] I suspect the spike in leak rate is when i first put mask on and getting it situated. then sometimes i lift it to scratch me nose. haha. pretty proud of the ahi. 
 AbleTech called yesterday. said theyre mailing the resmed tomorrow. pretty excited. Hope its a  decent one. comments on last night?

Just make sure it is not the CPAP model. You want the Autoset. Elite is a fixed pressure CPAP, but the Airsense 10 CPAP is a brick with no data.

So it just needs to be auto? Meaning I can set it? 
 If it’s cpap only or elite or airsense 10 that is bad? My luck it going to be one of those.  Prob why it was donated.


RE: Hypopnea? - Gideon - 07-09-2020

Airsense 10 is a series a model LINE.
It contains
CPAP (don't want)
Elite: CPAP but with data
AutoSet
AutoSet for Her

These words will be on the front of the unit.
