New S8 Elite Tuesday

Post by snowloft » Sat Oct 15, 2005 7:24 pm

I'll be replacing my S7 Lightweight with an S8 Elite so that I can monitor my progress. I think I'm under titrated, but I'll post some numbers then and hopefully someone can help me make sense of the numbers.

Does that model give you a reading on screen of your info without having to buy the softwear? I Will be interested to hear how quiet you think it is, with and without the humidifier.
WillS says if you install the humidier, even when not using it, it muffles the sound on the P.B. 420. thanks.

Yes, you can get at the data from the screen. I'll probably still buy the software though just because I'm a computer geek.

Well the DME people will be stopping by in the next couple hours to deliver my new machine. I took a vacation day so that I can kick back and relax, and also to more fully recover from me being sick the past week. I feel like a foster parent waiting for a new child to be "delivered" to me, it's kind of funny and sad both at the same time.

According to the DME, we technically rented the S7 Lightweight but purchased the Humidaire 2i Humidifier. So when they come today, they will be leaving the humidifier. So that means that I have a Humidaire 2i Humidifier for sale in case anyone is interested. In the past 8 weeks it has been used approximately 4 weeks, and when it was used the tank was emptied and dried every morning.
