Airfit N30 headgear

I need to replace the headgear for my Airfit N30 mask (I use it with my Z2 travel CPAP). I’m confused because I keep seeing these marketed as fitting both the N30 and the P10, except in some places the description states that these headgear straps are NOT interchangeable. Can anyone verify that they...

Re: Need Help with CPAP Travel Plans

Does an adapter exist to allow an Airsense Mini tube to be connected to my Z2 machine? I don't understand your problem exactly, but this adapter may work - https://www.cpap.com/productpage/z1-z2-tube-adapter I have that. It allows a regular hose to be plugged into the z2 Auto. It won't work with th...

Need Help with CPAP Travel Plans

I have a Z2 Auto, which I've been pretty happy with overall, but lately I've been finding that I really need some humidification when I sleep with my CPAP (Airset 10). The problem is that the HME device I bought for travel doesn't work with my mask (Airfit N30i), likely because the HME has to be ins...

Re: Rings

Oura rungs and smart watches give you more information than a pulse oximeter. They can help you track the quality of your sleep. They track stages of sleep, time in sleep, arousals, movement, blood oxygen levels, pulse, respiration rate, heart rhythms, ambient noise. That said, whether they are acc...

The guys over at SleepHQ are a bit enthusiastic about their gadgets.
Are they selling gadgets?
"Magic Uploader" and "O2 Ring."

Re: Rings

Is there a good reason to supplement my sleep info (from my CPAP) with an O2 ring, like the one sold by SleepHQ? If you don't have any lung or heart pathologies, a pulse oximeter will not add any information of value. Concentrate on AHI, leak level, and sleep hygiene. Thanks. That's what I was gues...

1) Is there a good reason to supplement my sleep info (from my CPAP) with an O2 ring, like the one sold by SleepHQ?
2) Does anyone know how the Oura ring compares?

Re: A couple of questions after reading "Hints from Forum Veterans" sticky

You can ignore the occasional dry mouth, but be sure to maintain oral care. Extractions are NO FUN--just been there today. The bridge is going to break the bank. Knock wood, but my teeth are one place I've had no trouble at all, before or since starting CPAP therapy 7 years ago. I'm sorry you had t...

A couple of questions after reading "Hints from Forum Veterans" sticky

I just read through the "Hints from Forum Veterans" sticky. I have a couple of simple (I hope!) questions: 1) If I wake up with a mouth that feels glued closed or otherwise just dry, but my nose isn't bothered by dryness, can I assume that the dryness is due to mouth breathing and not humidifier iss...

Any suggestions for humidity with Z2 Auto?

I thought I really liked my z2 auto at first, but now I'm having a lot of trouble with the humidity factor. I replaced the humidity exchanger (or whatever it's called), but I'm still waking up after a few hours with an uncomfortably dry mouth and throat. This doesn't happen nearly as badly at home w...

Re: BREAS Z2 very noisy at mask

What's the difference between the "travel hose" and the hose the Z2 comes with, aside from length?

When I first got my Z2, I was impressed by how quiet it was. But recently it's become too loud for me to sleep with, so I'm wondering what to do about that.

Click on "Attachments" and you should be able to attach your photo. Sorry but the forum attachment feature seems to be full and until people remove old past attachments people can't attach new files.

I would be glad to send a picture. Can you please let me know how to attach the picture after I take it using an iPhone? Not great with those things.

Re: More Eclipse Questions

First I put on the halos. Then twist the magnets off the frame of the eclipse, and attach them to the p10 cushion be pushing the plastic opening of the eclipse (the lower portion)through the p10 cushion. Now you have a p10 cushion and the magnet of the eclipse on both sides of the p10 cushion. Like...

More Eclipse Questions

What do you do if you have to blow your nose? I know that sounds ridiculous, but when I wake up to use the bathroom in the early morning hours, I often am a bit congested and need to blow my nose. Which seems impossible with the Eclipse halos on... I have almost given up on the Eclipse, sadly. I con...
