Re: Covid mask out of Airfit 20 + 3M bayonet cartridge?

Alternately, I thought about trying to fit 3m 1900 filter material to a flatter CPAP cushion?

Covid mask out of Airfit 20 + 3M bayonet cartridge?

I have a used Airfit 20 full face mask that my dad doesn't use anymore. I see the bayonet fitting on a 3M N100 cartridge is about the same size as the nozzle port on the F20 mask. So I'm thinking "how can I most effectively connect these together?" You can't buy real N95 masks anywhere. While I know...

Re: Burning smell after taking mask off???

My bad, I thought you were here to learn something, I see now you're just here to show us how clever you are with 'insults'. If I wanted to be "clever" with "insults" I could "show" people in a "way" that was more "obvious" and creatively "clever". I've learned from you in your quizzically generous...

Re: Burning smell after taking mask off???

"Wow". What a place... You, or your pillow smells. You're used to the smells in the air at a distance, that's being piped to you by your cpap, and when you take it off, you're smelling the smells in the air right next to your nose. You don't know that definitively. And nobody else does, either, from...

Re: Burning smell after taking mask off???

New CPAP user here of 3 days. Take the nasal mask off after having it on for a long time, and instantly smell "burning dust" for a few seconds... Kinda like the smell of a portable heater turned on after it's been sitting somewhere for a while unused. Dust *inside* a machine that has been sitting so...
