Re: Condensation - Temp Fix...

I used old socks and zip ties. Still didn't help with rainout. But I run my humidity pretty high. Setting of 4-5.

Re: After 2 weeks, finally a long nights sleep!

It took me almost a year before I slept longer than 4 hours using my cpap.

Re: Resmed making noise with exhale

If you have a humidifier and take the machine apart a lot like I do check the deal between the humidifier and the actual machine. There is a rubber seal that the tube fits through and mine for folded over once and was making a awful noise until I finally found it.

Re: SD card problems

Would you recommend a micro sd card adapter style or just the regular larger sd card?

SD card problems

My card has done the "invalid sd card" error twice in the last month. The card is probably 3-5 years old. I'm thinking I need to replace it. Resmed only suggests their cards obviously. So my question is what card do I need to get since I'm not gonna call teamed for their overpriced ones when I'm sur...

Re: Is this right?? (S9 autoset)

I use epr of 3. Makes exhaling a lot easier and more natural especially since I use nasal pillows.

Re: Successful Transition from Full to Nasal?

I switched from a mirage Quattro face mask to the swift xl nasal pillows and love it. I could never get the mask to seal correctly and I slept terrible with it. Since switching to the pillows I sleep great and my Numbers are more consistent.

Re: 90 Days & Still Exhausted

It took me about a year before my body accepted cpap. I fought it every single night. I slept maybe 2 hours a night and that was interrupted. I threw my mask across the room numerous times. When I switched to nasal pillows I noticed I accepted it a lot faster and easier. Now I use it every single ni...

Re: Playing With Pressure

I normally go up maybe .5 or 1 and use it for a week to give my body time to adjust while I check my numbers and see how thru go. Small adjustment can make a huge difference. I've also learned to adjust only one setting at a time. Like only adjust your pressure and nothing else. I was doing my press...

Re: Pugsy's Pointers...SleepyHead Tutorial and TX Hints

I would love to be able to see my data. I have the s9 resmed and I am currently just going by the machine readouts. The last day, last week, 3 months, and year readings to adjust my pressures and what not. Will sleepyheads do what I want? I've been on cpap for like 5 years but don't go to a doctor o...

Re: Resmed S9 Software - Where can I get it?

So I take it we can't get our s9 flashed to a newer firmware then. What a crock. We pay how much for the machines then have to buy a whole new machine just to get a new firmware? That would be like buying a brand new computer every time windows does a update.
