Re: New Swift LT mask expierence so far

Goolac (and other's), Can you explain how the O ring helps??? What is it doing mechanically? I use the small pillows (LT for Her), but the left one tends to leak a bit (the right nostril seems OK with any size--weird!). Because of the leaks on the left, I have the headgear probably a bit tighter th...

Re: New Mask- Sort of.... Swift LT/Breeze hybrid

Well it has been over a half year and still going strong. I have yet needed to replace any parts and make any other modifications.
Just though you would like to know.

Re: New Mask- Sort of.... Swift LT/Breeze hybrid

I don't know the Breeze at all. I see that dilators are slightly longer than the pillows. Is that for longer noses or just for more insertion? What pillow/dilator would be comparable to the Swift LT small pillows? I agree with Gal. The comparison for my experience is this...for pillows go one size ...

Re: New Mask- Sort of.... Swift LT/Breeze hybrid

All you need to do now is replace the shorter Swift mask hose with the longer Breeze hose and you be all set ... Hey thanks for the tip...I did swap my hose last night and I have to admit I enjoy the extra length. (there is some sort of dirty joke in there but I am not going anywhere near it!)

New Mask- Sort of.... Swift LT/Breeze hybrid

I purchased a Breeze but after 4 months of nightly use the cheap plastic broke and NO WARRANTY SUPPORT!!! So I tried several other masks and chose the Swift LT but a few nights ago It started leaking, I have high preasures (I:20, E:16) and this seems to be a common problem. So fed up with spending 3...
