I've just switched from an Activa to a SleepWeaver mask. Any insight on what mask I should select in the settings on my S8 Autoset II,since obviously SleepWeaver is not an option?
Thanks.

So for how many nights did you try SleepWeaver ?

3 nights so far.

I still have the machine set for the Activa mask, but wonder if there's a better choice. As I understand it, masks vary as to how much air escapes through the exhalation vent, so the expected pressure at the end of each breath would vary also. If the SleepWeaver allows significantly more (or less) air to escape through the vent, the reported leak rate could be affected. Am I correct in my thinking?

what's the mask literature say is the expected leak rate for your pressure on the sleep weaver? Is it close to that of the Activa?

Sleep Weaver lit says 25, Activa says 31. Does that seem close enough? I haven't had much luck finding listings of leak rate data for other masks... maybe restedgal has a link?
