The money you will save on oxygen refills using the EDS will pay for the unit.
Ditto on leaving the unit on automatic and use it from take-off to landing.
It was very impressive to experience how much more alert I felt at the end of a long day of flying when I used the EDS as compared to the old manual systems.
Consider the EDS to be an airbag system for your brain.


Thanks everybody for the feedback. Looks like I'll be going with the MH system. I appreciate your opinions and advice.

There is a good presentation on types of O2 systems at
http://aviation.derosaweb.net/presentations/#oxygen.

About the fingertip O2 saturation monitors.
Being in a glider we need one that is sunlight readable.
The cheap OLED ones don't seem to be sunlight
readable. Anyone found one that is?
Also, anyone have good experiences with the
wris****ch type O2 monitors?

Thanks, John (OHM)
