Re: Wisp on the Way
Pugsy and ChunkyFrog, Greatly appreciate your helpful comments. Have added additional insulation (fleece wrap) to the main hose and the "vanity" hose on the Wisp mask. Ran the machine for 25 minutes; the air is no longer freezing cold, but not warm. Yes, I did have Ice Nose with the Wisp one night. ...
