Not sure if this will work for me.
Been a member on here for a while but I’m an ant social lol. I have had COPD for about 7yrs. I am on 2 inhalers plus tablets, get out of breathe very easily. Drives me mad but it is what it is.
It helped me. it made my billfold lighter.
I can do much more with a O2 cylinder then i can at home with my concentrator. With bottles I can go for walks and even shopping, but at home with the concentrator my O2 drops to 80's just walking to kitchen. My bottle I set on 5 liters and concentrator is set on 7 liters. The only time my concentrator seems to work for me is when it is hooked up to my Trilogy, amd of course I am always resting then. Anyone else notice a difference. They tested the machine and said it was fine??😵😵
Can you not get oxy on the go.its only about eight inches tall. It helps when you want t go out it recharged by your cigarette lighter in the car
I use 2liters pretty much 24 hrs a day. If I am exerting myself I kick it up to 3liters
Is number 3 setting on an oxygen concentrator high?
the numbers usually correspond to litres per minute so setting 3 is 3 LPM

It's always better to be informed and this has been very useful information. Thank you.
I'll keep this simple and ask anyone has the g5 how long their battery last on the setting you use? I get about 4 hours from the 16-cell battery on setting 4 and even though I haven't used it very much, my battery is 2 years old. There is a huge difference how long I get from setting #3 and #4, and I'm wondering if my battery needs to be replaced and might give me more time.
Thanks
Hi, @A MyCOPDTeam Member - absolutely not talking myself out of using supplemental oxygen, but I am not willing to buy or use a piece of junk.

oh i'm sorry @A MyCOPDTeam Member I was replying to someone else. i'm on 2 liters in case of emergency ie exacerbation. Otherwise I rarely use it and never go out with it. Although I am sure that is… read more
