How much does it weigh?

What is its decibel level?

What is the name of the mask shown in the pictures on the BreatheX.com website?

If that is a mask made by Hoffman Lab, is the mask included in the purchase price of the machine?

Only CPAP?

Is the company going to make a bi-level machine too, or is it just going to be the same level of air pressure?

Breathex Question

Post by birdshell » Wed May 10, 2006 11:55 am

Anyone interested should go to see the Hoffman Labs site. It has photos and FAQs. This is the most innovative thing I have seen in a long time , and I'm a newbie to CPAP!

While this looks interesting on the Hoffman Labs site, it seems to beg the question:

If the motor is so advanced over the standard flow generator, could it not be used in a standard flow generator for home use and then transferred to the pillow assembly for travel?

And exactly how large is the charger and cord for this machine?

Also, as a sweaty sleeper, I would like to know how warm this pillow CPAP is to 'wear'?

If I am sweating, will the flow generator be damaged by moisture?

If I am boating and it accidentally goes overboard, will it be damaged?

I know the FAQs say that it can be set on the bed, but then the hose seems way too short for a side sleeper to switch sides. Is this possible without a longer hose?

Thank you!
