Well, I ordered mine. Just too good a deal to pass up.
Thanks, Lazer.
Jay

I've noticed that all of my deep sleep occurs during the first half of my sleep - is this common?

Yes, the most deep usually occurs in the first cycle and decreases in each subsequent cycle.

i wonder if this is why I've found that i don't really feel any different on 4/5 hours of sleep vs 8/9 hours? but less than 4 I feel really bad

That seems to be fairly common; under 4 hours, and you might awake from deep sleep--and that is miserable.

Thanks for the heads-up, lazer.

Well, I ordered a 3-pack for my wife's Zeo bedside unit and another 3-pack for my Zeo mobile unit as described in this excerpt taken from my order:

Zeo Mobile Headband & Sensor Replacement Kit x 3 ZeoMBLhbX3 1 $49.95
Zeo Bedside Headband & Sensor Replacement Kit x 3 ZEOHBX3 1 $49.95

I just opened my packages, only to discover that all six packages are missing the hard sensors. In other words, they sent me six soft headbands only. I have an email out to Zeo customer service. $49 for a pile of soft headbands isn't such a good deal.

My suggestion is that everyone check the contents of their foil packages to make sure there are hard sensor units inside.

I think you are only suppose to get the soft bands with sensors. The hard shell is to be reused.

Exactly. I got my 3pk Bedside unit and it only came with the snap-on soft sensors w/ headband. They snap right on & off the back (see instructions). The [Hard] sensor/transmitter part is re-used each and every time. You are only replacing the backs (where the 3 sensors are, along with the headband).

Hope that makes sense?

Lazer - thanks for this info. I passed all the details on to Santa so he could order these to go with the Zeo he has on my wish list LOL.

Cheers,
xena

I misplaced my manual: Now I need help in resetting the sensor reminder.
I tried yesterday and accidentally wiped all my old data. (it's online; so no biggie,
but I need to lie to the machine until the mail arrives with the new pads/bands.)

Chunky, it should still work even with the reminder on, but...
1. Press the settings button
2. Press the right arrow 4 times until the sensor pad life screen appears
3. Press the down arrow twice to confirm a new pad has been installed
