Maybe a can of spray flex seal? fixodent keeps my lips from parting. my friend dog slobber has an old pick of me that he keeps amusing himself (and me) with. that was back when I used...

Re: New mask: increased AHI but lower leaks?

I am wondering: - could it be that if I'm on my back, I just need more pressure to keep the airway open? maybe the min pressure needs to rise a little more? - I know that AHI of 1.5 is still fairly low, maybe just ignore all of this? yes and yes. if you are sleeping well and with your ahi at 1.5, I...

Re: Sleep tape for facial hair and beard

Anyone with facial hair using sleep tape and any recommendations for the best kind to use (that doesn't rip your face off) with a nasal mask like ResMed airtouch N30i or Dreamwear? Thanks!

we'd love to, but your image didn't "take".
You can still see the image if you put your mouse cursor over "image" and select "open in new tab" or it worked for me.
didn't work for me, but i'm on Chromebook, so who knows? but at least you got to see it and offer advice.

Re: Seeing ads for discounted Resmed Airsense 11 + mask bundle

These bundles appear to be going for less than the machine alone. Is there a new model coming out or something and they're trying to get rid of their stock of the 11s? https://www.cpap.com/collections/upgrade-as11-bundles-699 resmed doesn't announce when a new model comes out, so there is no way to...

The first thing you should be questioning is the accuracy of your Garmin for measuring REM.

Re: Help with selling a zero hour CPAP machine

user LSAT has sold many machines here. he'll be along shortly to give you some tips. the main tip that *I* can give you is take a photo of the display that shows zero run hours because interested buyers will want proof of that.

good luck!

Re: Old Resmed 10 stated make loud noise

I'm not sure if he's referring to the tank gasket or the gasket inside the machine on the outlet adapter. If he has a new water chamber he could try using that. If the noise doesn't go away with the new chamber then the gasket on the outlet adapter would be suspect. perhaps he'll enlighten us. just...
