After years of using the Activa exclusively, I wanted to try something else. I was very happy with the Optilite except, IT NEEDS A 360 DEGREE SWIVEL! What do you suggest I try that is similar to the Optilite but has a 360 degree swivel?
Thanx in advance.

I'm with you on this feature The Opus is similar and has a 360 connector. It leaked for me and I never got around to modifying it. May try again except my modified Opti works so well. I've tried the Opus, Opti, and Bravo. Modified the Opti and Bravo and they both work well. I switch back and forth when one or the other happens to make a sore spot. I would like to get the Opti to work as it is the lightest and has that swivel. It did work when the pillows were taped to my nose, but that is a bit irritating to the skin.
