#Bleep dreamport review thelankylefty27 series#

Wasn’t dwelling on the strangeness of it not binding my face up. Way better the second go round, when I knew what to expect.

Got to sleep night two in less than thirty minutes. But I settled down and the second night was even better than the first. It’s true and that can also be unnerving at first. It really feels like not wearing anything after a couple minutes of laying there, just like others have mentioned on their reviews. Plenty of air gets in and gets out without restriction on breathing. I could pull on it and wiggle it around and there was nothing. That’s when I knew it was going to be different. All the parts feel a bit alien to try doing it without looking, but then the whole thing feels strange initially.until you lay down and put pressure to it. Can’t say it would be easy not to do that. Ripped off the QR Socket thingy on the right side only one time on the first night (those could use a bit more engineering), but got it back on easy enough with the taco technique (see lefty’s video on that). I used alcohol out of a bottle on the corner of a wash cloth to clean around my nose (didn’t get the wipes). Matter of fact, I cut the tape all at once for one sheet straight across. I don’t have a giant nose and didn’t want the tape up under my eyes. I watched the Lefty Lanky video and cut the tape both nights. Will try for 8 tonight on the third night. I think the lower pressure had a lot to do with that. Got all the air I needed and kept my AHI as stable as before and I didn’t drool all over my pillow like I normally do. Actually felt more normal, because the bleep gives you plenty of pressure. Looking at djams SleepyHead data and what he’s posted, I turned my pressure down from 11 to 9 to experiment and it made no difference on performance. I can attest it was true efficiency of sleep. Super low AHI on my ResMed machine (under 1), green smiley face for a leak, and noticeably less arousals during the night sleeping.

Then last night was full bang for the buck perfect. But overall really good first night, but a little less sleep than normal. Strange how that becomes a common place kinda thing you grow used to. There is a weird sensation not having headgear snagging your hair and pinching your face OR NOT GOING UP YOUR NOSE AND BURNING (a big complaint of mine). Probably took an hour or more to get to sleep the first night. It took some time to get to sleep with it because it does feel super strange on your face not having headgear wrapped around your head. Without a doubt I felt like Emmet singing “Everything is awesome” after the second night. I have a little boy and he’s a big fan of the LEGO movies.

It is absurd from a physics/engineering perspective unless you are just sticking the end of the hose in your mouth. X0 makes total sense from a product liability perspective. As flow increases, so does the pressure difference between the sensor and the mask.

When air is flowing, the pressure drops in series stack up: bacterial filter (if present), hose, HME (if present), and mask. The flow is never zero though due to the vent holes and of course breathing. At zero flow, that doesn’t matter the pressure at the sensor will be the pressure in the mask. Try both, and use whichever feels more natural when breathing.Īll masks have a pressure drop that is proportional to the airflow (just like the hose). Either way, it is introducing a mismatch between the targeted and actual pressure.

If it is too high, it will feel like the machine is overcompensating: as you begin to inhale, you may feel slammed by a whoosh of extra air. If it is too low, you may feel air-starved, like breathing through a straw. The X setting compensates for the pressure drop in the mask. It also stacks the deck in favor of their masks. X0 is just Philips CYA setting for masks that they aren’t responsible for. I know that’s what is in the manual, but I disagree.
