WTB a portable O2 system

[Niko182]

I'm looking for a portable O2 system.
Thanks Nik

I bought an oxygen tank, regulator and cannula on Amazon a few months ago pretty cheap. What kind of system are you looking for?

Something to start with. Never flown in the flight levels

I like the all-in one 2 person kit that Sporty's sells.  https://www.sportys.com/pilotshop/6-cubic-feet-aluminum-cylinder-2-place-cannula-oxygen-system-2-nasal-cannulas-1-mask.html .  They will sell it dry or filled.  They also have a 4 person kit if you anticipate needing that many outputs.  

You just need to select size / capacity of the tank based on your usual trip at altitude and how many ports you think you will need.  SkyOX has a nice instruction on size/ duration at http://www.skyox.com/files/1965694/uploaded/OxygenCannulaInstructions1.pdf (keep in mind those figures are in man hours...divide by the number of active ports).

Need a mask above 18k’. Deluxe system would be O2D2 with masks and a nice precise flight or skyox system. I can send you the amazon stuff I got if you send me a PM. A lot cheaper. Hopefully you already have a pulse ox because they’re getting harder to find.

Buy the O2D2 and don’t waste your money on anything else. It is that much better. A 24 cu-ft tank will last 24 person hours at 15,000 feet. You will have to refill you tank much much less frequently.

I agree with this. I run a 5 station with the two adults on the 02D2 and the riff-raff on the canulas if they will keep them on. Otherwise, its sleepy time. AL647 lasts a long time.

PM me your phone number and I'll send you a photo of one I have.

I agree completely with the O2D2 (I also have an O2D1), but the gentleman still needs a tank and regulator.

ive got a large portable cylinder I'm not using any more and some very small cylinders.  I still have a couple of regulators and some nose cannulas.  I would assume my tanks all need a hydrostatic test, but I can fill them at my hanger.  I suggest you purchase a pulse oxymeter FIRST before you buy any oxygen gear.  If your oxygen level is below 90 then you MUST start using oxygen.  If you need oxygen, then you can figure out your typical flight time plus number of persons and then you can size your bottle.  If you will be going on longer trips you should be an oxygen pulse delivery system such as what mountain high sells so you get MUCH long service life from a bottle.  Im located in Half Moon Bay khaf and your welcome to contact me.  because my tanks are out of hydro, I would assume they are worth only $25 or so?  It's too much hassle to ship as they have to be empty with the valve removed, then you will need to get them tested, then filled.
