What are your recommendations for travel nebulizer?

@tinaesims Hi. I am disappointed with my travel Pari Sport S. The plug that goes into the cigarette lighter died after one single use and Pari would not replace it. I bought one online through Amazon for $10.00. Pari wanted $30.00 to replace it. The Pari nebulizer just fizzled on me. It still runs, but I'd be sitting here for hours waiting for a vial to nebulize. Thankfully, my friend in Va (I am away from home right now) had a spare nebulizer she wasn't using. So, I borrowed it. The travel Nebulizer will get you through some trips though.

I'm so glad I asked. If anybody has a recommendation, please let us know! I plan on traveling since the last trip went well. I didn't use a nebulizer but only the aerobic. It was fine but in my head I feel better after nebulizing with saline. I'm actually delighted. I didn't think I'd be traveling while on the Big 3. My doctor just looked at me and asked why not?

@tinaesims Absolutely "Why not?" I just finished a year and a half or the Big 3, 6 months of it daily! We traveled and traveled, as well as wintering in our Texas home. I had to make some adjustments due to fatigue and some gastric issues, but otherwise we really enjoyed ourselves. I come from a long line of people on-the-go - my grandparents continued to travel in the '70s with serious heart disease and Parkinson disease, my parents with multiple health issues, my uncle with emphysema... We now live winters in a senior-ish community where nearly everyone has serious health challenges, but keeps on going anyway. Far better than sitting on the sidelines and feeling sorry for oneself! And portable nebs are definitely the way to go - my InnoSpire Mini was under $100 with battery (you have to search for a good price) and lasted about 3 years. If nobody comes up with an affordable alternative, I may just order another.
I forgot to say, when we travel, we carry a "cleaning kit" - a small storage container with dish soap, clean paper towels, and a bottle of peroxide for cleaning and sanitizing the neb parts, Aerobika, and husband's Acapela. The cleaning routine is part of our evening in the hotel.

I never thought about peroxide. I just bought vinegar and bottled water at the store when I got there. Peroxide is certainly light enough to take along.

Interested to know exact process for cleaning with peroxide. I was diagnosed early last year and joined this group in July. This is the first I have heard of using peroxide. Still learning. Thanks much.

Duh! That was a lapse. I use alcohol. I don't know if it keeps NTM away, but it does handle the other bugs likely to hide in the crevices. Daily 15 min soak in soapy water then rinse and air dry on clean paper towel covered by another. Every 5 days to a week soak 30 min in alcohol after cleaning. I change my neb cup and tubing about every 3 months. I use distilled water if I have it, otherwise bottled spring water. At home I boil water in a tea kettle

Oh... alcohol makes more sense. Do you use alcohol at home to or vinegar?
