Grrrrrrrr... Aura not going to work either.

/sigh, this sucks. Even on the first slot, I can't get the pillow holder horizontally close enough to get the pillows in. It's like 1/2 a mm away. If I just push it the rest of the way there's tension and I'm sure they'll pop out eventually.

This is getting very, very expensive...

Men don't usually like to think about this but.....

A homemade strap made from one leg cut off a pair of pantyhose tights, placed over the nasal pillows and tied behind the head works wonders....

...sometimes.

Or, if you're talking about getting the nasal pillows themselves closer to each other, a short strip of velcro placed up as high as possible around the two little tubes to squeeze the tubes closer together will do the trick.

I did notice when I pushed that part in where you have the green hose with my hand, it sealed but I can't hold it all night Also if I put my head into the pillow, the pillow pushing it in a way that it seals.

How can I go to the store to buy panty hose??? I already ordered a replacement for my laat mask since it seemed to work ok as long as I had my face buried in the pillow

So, anyway, I attempted to use the Aura anyway, bent the wires back quite far to get the pillows in. It wasn't too bad at first, though I could never get it totally leak-free (and the wire-bending caused the tubes to make a lot of noise). But around 1/3 - 2/3 though the night one of the pillows just decided to stop sealing at all and I couldn't do anything to get it to reseal and stay that way so I gave up and put on my HC405. I guess I'll mess with it more tonight but it doesn't seem like it will work out.
