Has anyone here ever plugged their hose and mask into a SoClean and used it as a backup when they had a problem with their CPAP?
Some potential problems I'm thinking of:
- Apparently it's pretty loud when it's running
- Not capable of high pressures
- No way to import data into SleepyHead
- It will definitely kill you

Sounds like Superball has been using it that way! Jim
For quite a while!

At least your AHI will be zero!

But... would it?

At least it would kill germs, they wouldn't have Superball to eat on. Jim

Well, see, if you look up the effects of ozone dangers, it talks about lung damage... which,
technically can
eventually kill you... but it doesn't indicate that ozone is toxic, per se.
Perhaps superball would be more accurate to have said "it will definitely make you wish you were dead".

I have completely replaced my CPAP with SoClean, My AHI is perfect because there is no way to read it and I can no longer catch a cold because all the bugs are dead
