Zeo and strap interference

Post by Always tired » Fri Dec 14, 2012 12:14 pm

I know there is a ton of info on the Zeo, but I've been all over the forum since early this morning and can't find a specific answer--so thought I would just post two questions.

Looking at the Zeo site and the first thing that I see is the head strap. Then I see it possibly conflicting with with my mask headgear especially the forehead support. I rotate around 3 masks True Blue Nasal, Mirage Quattro and the FitLife Total FF. Anybody out there use a Zeo with one of those masks, especially with the True Blue which is currently my primary mask, but am working on the Mirage to be number one.

The ultimate question--has anybody had a success story with a zeo? Or an epiphany regarding their sleep.
Thanks
A T

I could NOT wear the Zeo with my Comfortgel FFM.
I considered modding the forehead rest to work with the Zeo, but they did not match.
They just interfered with one another. I just can't use both together.
It's OK, I'm not likely to wear that mask unless I'm VERY sick.
With two CGFF's I might revisit the problem with one, some day, but it's not on my short list.

I wore mine with the Mirage Quattro FFM and just placed the zeo sensor above the forehead brace. Then again I have short hair and a receding hairline so maybe that is why I had success with it.
