Re: CVS Distilled Water Smelly?
So that's what it is. I've been smelling something funny lately and I kept changing masks, then washed all the hoses and still the smell. Must be the new gallon of distilled water. I never would've guessed

Re: Airfit F10 Review
Isn't the mask supposed to be designed to enable wearing glasses? I'm planning to order the mask in the next few weeks and this is what I was expecting. France The Airfit F10 uses the same cushion as the Quattro Air. So, even tho it doesn't have the forehead piece, the mask still comes up close to ...

Re: Leaks?
You might want to try wearing a mouth guard with your FFM. It works for me, totally eliminating leaks. When I don't wear it, leaks start to wake me up 3-4 hours into my sleep. Here's a link to a video on this.

Re: Help! Newbie trapped in a wind storm!
I use the Airfit F10 and alternate with the Quattro Air. I was having a lot of leaking that kept waking me up and sometimes I would just give up and take the mask off and go back to sleep. I saw a video on fixing the leaking on FFM. They suggest using a mouth guard to keep your lower jaw from droppi...

Re: Returned masks
My DME told me I didn't have to return the mask. He said he just fills out paperwork and they send him a new one. I had only used it 3 nights, so I traded with another forum member who had a new mask I wanted.

Leaks with FFM
I now use the Airfit F10 and alternate with the Quattro Air. Even though I’m very claustrophobic, I love these masks. I no longer get that suffocating feeling and breathing is so much easier. Only problem was that leaks would wake me up at around 3:30 am and they were relentless, to the point of tak...

Re: Sleep Cycle App
It's one of the better smart watches available right now. https://getpebble.com/ . I really like mine. *edit: I should mention that Sleep as Android works with the pebble watch to monitor sleep. There is an option in the sleep as android setting to enable the pebble. I wasn't clear on my first post...

Re: AirFit F10 vs Mirage Quattro FFM
I've been using the Airfit F10 for two weeks and it is so comfortable. True this is my first FFM so I don't have anything to compare it with except the nasal masks (Wisp & Mirage FX), I'll take the Airfit F10 hands down. Last night was an exception, leaks kept waking me up and I eventually took it o...

Re: Nasal pillows to nasal mask to FFM
I went back and closed Sleepyhead and opened it up again and the 13th was back to the first screenshot showing just 75 on the graph. I don't have Encore but if it'll help me understand this better, I'll take it. Just let me know where I can download or buy it. In the meantime, if you tell me how to ...

Re: Nasal pillows to nasal mask to FFM
I will post some screen shots when I get home tonight. I noticed in one it was 134 L/min. I am using the Airfit F10 which I like but as I mentioned before, I woke up on two separate occasions to find my bottom lip below the edge of the mask so that might have been when the large leak started.

Nasal pillows to nasal mask to FFM
I started out last October with the Swift FX which I love but my AHI’s stay 5>. I tried other nasal pillows and still can’t get my AHI’s <5, even tried the Airfit P10 and my AHI’s went to 7> with 3% large leak. So, I moved on to the Wisp and alternated with the Mirage FX. I did very well with these ...
