Great advice all around. I'll post info from the hybrid I'm using once it arrives, and let everyone know how it turns out. In the meantime, on the advice of a couple of posters here, I ordered a power-out alarm just in case =) The LAST thing I thought I'd have to worry about was LESS air, now that I...

Thanks! adding them to Reader.

I'll look into the alarm, thanks for the tip.

I can breathe through the circuit relatively well enough to survive, I just wasn't sure if there was a CO2 buildup danger or something like that.

Hi Folks:

Thanks! I kind of figured that it would as the tech said "any standard mask is fine" but I wasn't sure if a hybrid counted as a "standard mask."

Ah well, I'm a techie and gadget guy, so I'm going to look at this as just another piece of gear =)

Hi everyone: I'm a new CPAP'er (literally started with my machine last night). Diagnosed with moderate-severe OSA, though I'm still trying to get my doc to give me the specifics, all I know for sure is my pressure is 12 =) I'm so glad this forum is here, I've gotten a TON of information so far.
