@crystalena I agree. I find the tank O2 is so much better than even my in home not portable concentrator. What do the numbers on the portable, mine is an Imogene, mean? I have to go to 6 and even then I’m gasping. 4L on tank i’m ok SOB but not gasping. Interesting and yes i also agree those commercials show healthy people and for the meds as well. Are you using the 2 wheel tank cart or a different one? I experience same as you dropping when getting dressed and showering as well.

@mkj7 Mine also was an Imogene. They are just numbers on a dial. Same with me . If you turned it up to 6 it delivers less oxygen , It draws more air from room or outside seems to be ramping up . But it cannot produce more than 3 liters. At 6 you get more outside air sucked in to it . It thins the 3 liters it does produce . These things are a joke . I have a two wheel cart. Actually 2 of those . I set the spare up in my car so easy swap . I also have a two wheel cart that holds 2 tanks . Nice for flea markets if I am going to be shopping for over 2 hours , and it’s a ways from my car . Those people selling the Pom should be curbed and regulated . Scammers !!! Blessed Be , Crystalina
