I recently read about the Pari travel nebulizer on this site and bought it. I really like it! Can use it in the car or plug in outlet when traveling. It is also pretty quiet so I was able to nebulize in another room and the sound would not even be noticeable.
Thank you!
I use arobika while nebbing and no coughing using 7% twice daily. I was not finishing all the Sod. Chl. in 15-20 mins and not understanding why. I sterilize everything after each use. Can something happen to the arobika that keeps the medicine from going into the lungs? I tried using regular and other type neb kits without the aerobika and I would cough and actually coughed up mostly light yellow sputum. I'm on my third aerobika in 2 years but I thought they would last longer as I do soap/water cleaning and sterilizing in microwave bags. I am asymptomatic and want to stay that way. Any thoughts?
Thank you Sue, good information 👍🏻

And if you use the search box at the top and type in "travel nebulizer" you will find others.
As you now know, there is a vast difference between nebulizers, like you I dumped one because it was too slow, and another because the battery heated up when used (I was afraid to have it in my luggage)
