Activa-LT headgear

Post by SleepingUgly » Sat Jan 08, 2011 9:57 pm

The headgear that came with my Activa-LT size Medium is too big for my head in the back (the distance from the top and bottom strap is too long). Does anyone know if there is a smaller headgear that would still fit it?

The PAPCap Plus 4 does work with the Activa LT frame, if you don't mind something that covers your head. You wouldn't have to use the chin strap part. Or, one of these may work: http://shop.ebay.com/premierautotint/m.html. I don't see any size small there, but maybe the medium would fit okay? The price is good.

Resmed makes a small headger for their masks. It is the same cut but just smaller. You should be able to get one from any DME. If they do not stock them they can order you one. If you have trouble finding one I can help you. Feel free to email me.

I have to cinch up the top strap in the back by pinching it together and wrapping a rubber band or ponytail band around the part that is cinched up. Does that make sense?

I use this mask on occasion. Not my main one but I also use the pap-cap with it. No headgear problems with it. EVER!
