CL2 or Twilight NP??????

Post by fishmaycraft » Wed Feb 07, 2007 2:11 pm

Well I've decided to try a different mask that will allow me to sleep on my stomach. I can either exchange my current mask for a CL2 through my provider, or I see that so many of you like the Twilight, I could just buy it myself.

Opinions and experiences please!!!!

Thanks for the help,

FMC

I own and have used both masks. My own opinion is that the NP is more comfortable but the CL2 is a little quieter. My NP has a louder noise when I inhale. I don't know if other NP users have the same impression. Because I am easily disturbed by noise I most often opt for the CL2. Both are very stable for me with few leaks. I think they are both great products. There are also "fixes" for both masks (described in various posts on here) that can make them perform better for you.

Hiya FMC. You already know my vote for the TwilightNP. I haven't had the same experience with it being loud - the only time it's ever loud is if a pillow or something gets in front of the exhaust vent (which, given the placement of the vent, is not common). Different people are sensitive to noise at different levels, though, so perhaps I'm just not as sensitive in that way as sleepyWI. I actually find it to be one of the quieter masks I've owned - I can actually hear my machine more clearly than I could with my UMFF mask - I don't know if that's a good thing or not!

Whatever you decide, good luck.

I talked to my provider this afternoon and they are going to let me use the CL2 for a while and see if I like it before I swap them out.

I'm hoping for the best!
Man I've been on here a lot the last couple of days!!
