O2PTIMASK™ I Got Mine - With Pix
Aug 15^th, 2008 at 8:50pm

The O₂PTIMASK™ kits started shipping from the Linde LifeGas Call Center for $25 and I just received mine.

Those of you who attended the OUCH conference in Dallas and made the Linde LifeGas brief will recall the O₂PTIMASK™ kits were soon to be available for shipping. They're now available. I placed the order on Monday and received the kit Wednesday morning via DHL.

The present process requires a credit card authorization you'll need to sign and fax back or scan to pdf and email back, but once that's on file, all you need to do is call in another order to the LifeGas Call center. The phone number is listed in the Linde LifeGas advertisement here on CH.com in the Oxygen Info tab at the left. There are several configurations to choose from as well as replacement parts. I ordered the configuration with the mouthpiece and facemask.

On Thursday, the folks at LifeGas informed me they were ready to accept orders from Europe and the Scandinavian countries. They can take credit card orders from Europe in the same way they do here in the USA. Sufferers can call them between 8:00 am - 6 PM (18:00) EST which is 14:00 to 24:00 central European time. They can also send an email to sales@lifegas.com and the Call Center folks at LifeGas will respond as soon as possible. It looks like USPS will be far less expensive way to ship the O₂PTIMASK™ kits to Europe as DHL gets pricey even for a 1 lb/0.5 Kg package.

THANK YOU, Batch!

My decrepit clustermask is in deperate need of replacement. Would order another and another, as it is one of my prized posessions. Ben has a place in my nightly prayers. The pain and anguish it has saved me is priceless. I've never truly understood what happened there.

Will surely be ordering an O2ptimask!!!

Best,

Jon

The size of the tubing coming off the regulator is standard. It's the tubing that connects the mask to the regulator. In short, yes -Dennis-
