What are your recommendations for travel nebulizer?

I'm in a terrible way because I can't find a hand held portable Nebulizer. Right now I use the Salter AIRE Elite, but it's not portable, Can anyone recommend a portable nebulizer so I can breathe again? I'm sorry if my post sounds desperate, it's because I am. I need something that's portable and handheld. I use albuterol now in the Salter AIRE Elite. Please any recommendations will be appreciated immensely. Thank you very much for recommending a small handheld portable machine.

If you are speaking about the handheld nebulizers that use an impeller and mesh to produce droplets instead of a compressor with tubing, the reliable hand-held ones meant for every day use are pricy. The cheaper ones on Amazon are extremely variable as to how they hold up to daily use, how long they last before they leak, and how they can be sterilized.

Can you tell us more about how you use your nebulizer? Is it possible to neb at home and carry an inhaler for use while you are out and about? Are you dealing with Bronchiectasis or a different lung problem?
