I just purchased this blackout hose from Amazon and used it last night. It had this wired smell to it. I also did take my mask off tonight. What was this smell?

A plastic-like smell?
Not uncommon, even with OEM equipment.
Maybe worse with third party stuff.
Blowing it out or airing it out should help.
I find aromatherapy upwind of the intake helps too.
If it is too unpleasant/will not go away/ etc, send it back.

Probably new hose plastic smell.
Did you wash it before you used it?
Let it air out in the room before you used it?

I may have to RISE but I refuse to SHINE.
If you want to try the Eclipse mask and want a special promo code to get a little off the price...send me a private message.

Oh, yes! WASH it really good!
If it is not a heated hose, soaking in a baking soda solution might help.
Thanks, Pugsy.

Never had a problem like that. Sill using the original hose I got with my S9 in mid 2014.
