I don't know if anyone here sells them or if you have to buy direct from the company but I love my OGSI OG-15. With it hooked to a holding tank to even out the pressure and flow I can actually run both a lynx and a national 3B at the same time no problem. The OGSI people were very helpful when I had questions and needed parts. And I found out that there is an optional switch (which I have) that will shut off the concentrator if it gets back pressure (so it doesn't get damaged if you accidentally leave the torch valve closed too long), which is also nice with the holding tank cause I can turn it on, leave for a while, and come back when the tank is full, without worry of filling it up and hurting the concentrator.

I bought mine at ioffer from a seller named backyard corporation. It was only $159 including shipping but now I'm wondering if I got taken. I just had mine tested by the local oxygen company and it's only putting out 65% oxygen at 5L. At 2L it's at 92%. Will this even work? I have a Minor.

No, I'm afraid 2 lpm is not enough for any torch.

Thanks Squid.... I'm so pissed at that seller right now I can't even tell you. I had asked him for the details and when he didn't answer I shouldn't have bought it....I guess I should be just as mad at myself.

It depends what you're trying to power. I got a pair of 5lpm medicals from Jay at HobbiesForUs.com - the price was right and the machines do their job. Jay also sent replacements for parts that were damaged in shipping the same day I called about the problem.

avoid extreme oxygen...they dont honor there warranties... my ex2000 has a three year warranty and the compressor died after 2 and there trying to make me pay $600. the funny thing is they told me its not broken just worn out so it doesnt qualify for warranty repairs? isnt that what a warranty is, a statement that says if it wears out or stops working within a certain time frame itll get repaired.. either way ive gotten nothing but the shaft so far from extreme oxygen. a really expensive shaft at that. avoid getting the same it sux lemme tell ya.

If you want a machine that will last you many years (like 20 or more) and if you are willing to spend about two grand at least, then one of these is your best choice:

http://www.airsepcpd.com/airsepcpd/index.html

I've had mine for almost 10 years now, and running full time in one of the most humid areas of the USA. It hasn't needed any repairs yet. But if you can't afford this, then all of the other vendors are good for the less expensive machines. I would go with kbinkster from Pyronamix.

I got mine on craigs list. Then I bought two more from Donna at The Mandrel. She doesn't normally sell oxy cons but had a few extra that I got at a good price.

Hey Billy, give me a call. Maybe I can help you. I have another EX pump that don't work. Maybe I can put the 2 together and come up with something for you. jack

unlimitedoxygen.com Lowest price I found and great service. Paypal gave them my wrong address, they fixed it. Then I needed them to hold it for when I went away and they did. When I called to say I was back, they confirmed my address and sent it right away. I think I talked to the same guy each time; he remembered me once and was as polite as could be.

I'd recommend Kimberly/Pyronamix highly and without hesitation.

I would not deal Unlimited Oxygen again. None of the phone numbers work, the emails do not get answered, and the customer service I got was dreadful.
