Default Airsep Elite O2 concentrator question....

Hi--
I'm sick of spending money on oxygen tanks, so I've decided to get my self an oxycon....I have found one, it's an Airsep Elite 5lpm, with approx 3000 hours on it for $150.....this sounds like a good deal to me, but I really know nothing about these things!! Any help you could give me would be much appreciated! I'm using tanked propane on a Cricket

The GTT site says the cricket can run comfortably on a 5 LPM concentrator.

I use an Airsep Elite with my minor and I am happy. It runs it comfortably.

Beyond that, hopefully someone else will chime in about pricce and hours. Concentrators are so much cheaper in the the US than they are in Australia.

I have been running my Lynx on 2 Elite for over 2 years. I think I paid about $250 for each. They each had 7-9k hours on them when I got them. So you have a great deal there.

I have an Airsep Elite with my Cricket. Grab it, it works great, and $150 is a great deal.
