Re: Dreamwear Full Face Mask (No prescription required) $97

For what it is worth I have purchased two masks through Bonanza and had no problems. Fast delivery and exactly as shown. Unless I hear bad things about them I will buy again. The only thing to note is that Bonanza is like ebay and has many sellers, you are not buying from Bonanza.

Re: New pressure adjustment - still feeling bad

Pugsy I understand and agree with raising the min. pressure especially since the dreamstation is slower to respond to OA and increase pressure. What I don't understand is that the dreamstation is showing 8/20 but the pressure is showing at slightly above 6 not the min. of 8. Why is this? Thanks i ad...

Re: Resmed S9 turns itself off

I had a respironics 60 bipap that started shutting off several times a night, I had to turn auto start on so it would kick back on. Two causes were mentioned. A very large leak that made the machine think I had taken the mask off or a machine failure, I used sleepyhead and ruled out the large leak b...

Re: Got a machine....Water-boarding comes to mind<LOL>

I took that eradicator was referring to feeling like suffocation not water. Eradicator are you referring to suffocation or water spray in the nose/face?
Please let us know.

Re: Respironics screen is blank

I would make sure everything is plugged in. The wires can come loose. If they are plugged in tray another wall outlet.
the plug on the back of the respironics can be partially dislodged.
Let us know..

Re: Help with leak with Total Face mask

I used the fitlife for 7 years. When it leaks it leaks -- a lot. All I can say is to tighten it snugly at first then increase the tightness as it ages, It was always a pleasure to receive a new mask so I can wear it looser. Overall it was not that bad about leaking. I cleaned my with dawn and a wash...

Re: Aaaaand again: newbie struggles topic

nova4e Your minimum pressure is very low, It is possible that you are feeling like you aren't getting enough air. My suggestion would be to raise your minimum pressure to 6. I noticed that when your pressure drops down to 4-5 you start having hypopneas. I am sure more knowledgeable people will be al...

Re: Cleaning a mask before selling?

Just post the price you are asking. I think anyone buying a used mask will disinfect it before use, regardless of what the seller says.
