SlimLine tubing
One of the slimmest and most flexible tubes on the market, SlimLine™ is 40% lighter, 20% thinner and takes up 35% less space than traditional tubing
Streamlined design makes it easier for patients to move around in bed without pulling on the mask or endangering stability
Travel friendly, with a handy smart-fit cuff design that makes it simpler to attach and remove
Compatible with AirSense 11, Air10 and S9 devices

I added the bold attribute.
But I have no comment on ResMed's statement on "endangering stability." Not my strong suit.

Heated. That’s what I use.
I was saying I could not find one without heat.
Am I sleepy and missing something?

Scroll down. The SlimLine tubing is NOT heated. That is why it works with 9, 10, AND 11.

Well waddayano. Def sleepy and missed it.
Thanks.
Didn’t see it listed on cpap.com either but I was sleepy then too. Past my bedtime.
It’s a sign that I woke up with massive moisture in my hose this morning.

Thank you, Lazarus! It's worth trying, especially for $9 with free shipping. I appreciate the recommendation. This way, the hose itself won't be cold, nor will it wake me up anymore with its unpleasant noise as it moves across my dresser when I toss and turn. Excellent!
Any time. And you are very welcome.
I use something similar, myself.
To me, heated hoses feel heavy.
Curious now how much heavier a heated hose is compared to unheated and a cozy.
Not sure I would change tho because I need the humidity.
Heated hose is a lot heavier than the slimline hose. Made myself a flannel cozy with very nice (not to thick fabric). I also have the heated hose with a cozy I crochet but that one I haven't used in like two years its not gotten really cold here and I don't like the weight of it.

I actually thought I might look into it but then last night it mustve been cold in the room (colder than usual cool temp we keep it at) because I woke with the hose soaked on the inside.
I think I will hold off.
Thanks for the insights though. Perhaps if I move to a different climate or maybe over the summer I might switch it up but to be honest the weight doesn't bother me much with my holder.
