Got my AirFit P10! I’m actually excited to go to bed for once, lol. Even just testing it out for a few minutes, I’m much more comfortable than my N20. It’s so soft on my face!! No hard plastic!

Edit: just took a nap with it and O.M.G!!! No leaks into my (already dry) eyes, no aerophagia, very little noise! It’s a dream come true!! Now to find someone to swap my medium and small pillows with for extra small...

They have a long standing thread called the great pillow exchange were they do exactly that all the time... so happy a new mask has solved so many issues....

As to adjusting the time on your pap... if you're trying to get the numbers to line up all in one day and not be split... i wouldn't worry about it... you're going to make yourself crazy trying to make time adjustments all the time. As long as your daily aggregate rounds out to the required time you should be absolutely fine. I forget how to adjust it but if you're using sleepyhead or oscar there is a setting you can tweak to fix viewing split times as one.

If you're getting 6+, 7, 8 hours of sleep a day overall your machine will register as such and you should have no problems. If you use your pap anytime you sleep always no matter what... then if you still haven't registered enough hours on your machine to make the insurance company happy you have a bigger problem like chronic insomnia.

Best of luck!

Restwell,
