Completed. A couple of questions could have used an answer other than yes/no, but this survey should be VERY helpful.

Here is cost effective option for a regulator: Amazon to the rescue. As @jon019 said, you'll need a GOOD mask from here: Cluster O2 Kit As for the number of tanks, I have 8 E tanks sitting in my basement right now...waiting. So, the answer is you will need more than one tank. Even if you obtained the largest tank available, you'd still another to switch to when you ran the first one empty. Never get caught without something that works.

Not exactly sure what the question is...... This is sound advice. @jrc give us a little more information as to what you are trying to achieve.

For our uses, I like the low cost of the Amazon units. If anyone asks, this is what I recommend. Now if I were an EMT, would I want to carry one on the truck? Probably not, but for our use I think they are fine. The low price gets someone with limited resources a 25LPM regulator for minimal outlay. I have a WT Farley too. Great, well-made unit with a 40LPM option but they cost a bit more. The only regulator I've had trouble with was a one I purchased on eBay.....the yoke bent after a few years of use and wouldn't stay sealed to the tank outlet. I robbed a couple parts off it and in the trash it went. I figure I got more than 20 bucks worth of use out of it. With any regulator, keep spare seals around. You'll need them eventually.

I still think we are more prone to hedonistic behavior than average as a way to balance pain we experience with pleasure. No....I'm not admitting to a damn thing..... It's merely a theory.

I think it's kept up and running mostly for archived information now. Sad to look back over the posts and see names lost to the years.....

There are those that would argue that Chicago is on another planet.

I figured as much DD. I stay as far away from Facebook as much as humanly possible, so my knowledge of goings on there is very limited.

While I'm not 100% sure, I believe the Cluster Buddy has participants that are not members here.

Contact anna@clusterbusters.org for Cluster Buddy questions.

I'm sure some of the TX locals will chime in with suggestions as they see this. Right now, we plan on just driving around between Dallas and west TX. This isn't our first trip to TX so we are just picking a section we haven't been to before.

I too have heard of people trying low flow O2 while sleeping with mixed results. I recall one person stating that just a plain CPAP seems to help with night attacks. Combining the 2 is an interesting idea but I can offer no personal experience, nor can I recall anyone trying such a setup. It would seem that using a concentrator AND combining the room air flow from the CPAP wouldn't give the user anywhere close to the pure O2 we recommend for an abort but as a preventative....I guess it could help? The setup would definitely increase the level of O2 per breath verses room air. Perhaps that might make a difference for some? Please update us as to its long-term effectiveness. This is worth watching.

Probably the best way to find out is to email: conference@clusterbusters.org I'm sure the help will be appreciated.

I was just planning the trip, hotel reservations made and watching flights. We will take the opportunity to explore more of Texas beforehand.
