Re: Bleep/DreamPort nasal mask review thread

Well the P10 tube attached to the bleep mask was a great success the added flexibility of the hose reduces the ‘pull’ on my nose when moving arround, it was not a big issue but I thought it could be improved with a more flexible hose, the P10 hose improves that need easily and a zero cost if you ha...

Hair tie huh??? I wear my hair extremely short so you can imagine why I didn't recognize it. I did find a bread tie kind of thing that was long enough to use though. It will do until I remember to get a hair tie thing.
No rubber bands in the house?

Re: Bleep/DreamPort nasal mask review thread

Good job Ed. What are you using to tie up that filter in place? I am actually good with the length of the Bleep hose and would/could stand for it to be even shorter but I do understand that some of you all prefer longer. How did you get that swivel off? I can't make it budge but then I have a bum t...

Re: Bleep/DreamPort nasal mask review thread

Ok, so I did a thing. That stiffer hose (not stiff, but not nearly as pliable/floppy as it needs to be) got me last night, pulled a leak in one of the ports that I couldn't get re-stuck(at least not while groggy), so I dug out a dead P10, lopped off the hose, and put it on the Dreamport. It was very...

Re: Switch from FFM to nasal pillows? How did you do it?

You guys ever get "chipmunk cheeks" using tape? I do just about every time I try it. I have used a cervical collar successfully for awhile, but began to "overpower" it and breath through my mouth anyway. I've been using the F30 successfully, no leaks, etc., but wake up with the dreaded markings from...

Re: Sticky about recent spam bot attacks

I know you will claim that the spam wasn't what shortened your sleep time. And I will believe you. But please make sure that is 100% true, if you don't mind. I have been battling some insomnia issues. Both sleep onset and maintenance. Secondary to pain...the joint injections I had last year that he...

Re: Obviously he/she/it came back

Probably was a targeted attack, however it may have been targeting the out-of-date software the site was using since it was likely vulnerable (aka - the door was wide open). With the update, there's more tools to use to prevent the attacks from disrupting the forum if they're set up properly. Here's...

Re: Obviously he/she/it came back

Pugsy, Are they using a different email address for verification every time or does it change every time like the IP address? I honestly don't know because I don't have access to that information. I would assume new/different email addresses are needed but those are easy to get. I can see when some...

Re: Bug Discussion - Upgraded PHPbb Forum Software

I've caught up to this thread, and heard your many posts loud and clear. I've pushed a change to that behavior to make it stop. My fault, I misunderstood earlier requests, and took it to mean all thread links, including the threads themselves, should open new tabs. Thank you! Works like a champ!

Re: Bug Discussion - Upgraded PHPbb Forum Software

When I click on a thread, my tablet opens a new tab--EVERY TIME except this thread. Is this a "feature", now? I hate it. On the bug list already. A twist to this is when I click on the symbol by the thread title to go to the first unread post of any thread, it stays in the same window. If I click o...

Re: Bug Discussion - Upgraded PHPbb Forum Software

The "open link in new tab" setting has changed for the forum, probably an obscure setting buried within the admin control panel. Not a fan of having a new tab for every thread opened, and this is the only one I read that is behaving that way, though I did find a way to override the site/forum's sett...

Is Tapatalk functionality going to be restored? Tapatalk is now working. Whoops . . . I can now log in, but there is no forum (ie - the thread listing) showing. I've unfollowed and re-followed the forum, both with and without killing Tapatalk in between and no dice. Anybody else use Tapatalk and ha...

Re: Pilairo adjustable headgear with Brevida mask?

2nd night using the Pilairo headgear/straps with the Brevida and am very pleased with the combination. The clips slide out when being put together but stay attached just fine when on my head and are under tension. I really like that it is so adjustable and comfortable. I've got this dialed in reall...
