Thanks for reading, I sure appreciate it!!
I have two Invacare Mobilaire units that I have tied together with a "T" in order to power up a Nortel Minor. My entire set up is BRAND new and today was the first day I have tried to use it.
I have my propane set to about 3 or 4, and the both OxyCons running.
However, when I use the flame, it is very "unstable." Sometimes it holds a nice long flame, and then will shorten up and almost go out. Then there is a "whoosh" sound, and the flame jumps up again.
I left everything ON to troubleshoot - and the output on the Oxycons seems to hold around 4 or 5.
I've spent all day trying to get this to work. I've only made two beads, and it was a challenge since the flame wasn't consistent. I wanted to do this ALL day while the kids were in school and things were quiet. Now I can't work on this again until tomorrow which is Thanksgiving. Boo Hoo!!
IF you have any ideas for me to try, PLEASE post them -- these concentrators have a one year warranty... but I'm sure it is just me and how I have things hooked up. I think that the oxygen is leaking from one of the hoses too..... ARGH --- where it is attached to the "T."
I've tried each one seperately, and neither of them gives a steady stream of oxygen. I had it going for a short time where it was good and consistent, then it fails again.
The studio is in the garage, but I have a heater and a thermometer, and the temp was around sixty degrees all day in there.
THANKS in advance, this is KILLING me, I have wanted to do this for two months, ever since I took a class.......
