Red face Looking for oxygen concentrators.

I'm looking for sites that sale oxygen concentrators. New and reconditioned would be great. I was planning on using tanked oxygen until I heard of oxygen concentrators. I'm just looking at my options.

Default Oxygen Concentrator Sales

In The sales rack there are some specials currently being run that may be of interest to you.

You'll want to do a little bit of reading about them to decide what you want. There are a couple of concentrator vendors who are LE vendors. (Forgive me if I'm forgetting someone.) Look in the "Sale Rack" section of "The Mall" section for posts by Justin L of Oxygen Plus and Kimberly (kbinkster) of Pyronamix. They'll have links to websites in their signatures of their posts.

There are vendors who sell concentrators on eBay. People have had different experiences with getting concentrators on eBay -- some good, some not. Before you go that route, check out the vendor carefully. You might want to post a question here. You should check out the vendor's feedback using www.toolhaus.org, which is a site that lets you see all the negatives and neutrals that a vendor has gotten including feedback that they've talked people into withdrawing. (There was a thread about this recently, and someone mentioned the toolhaus site.)

Here's a link to a thread about problems with buying a concentrator on eBay -- but there are people who have bought on eBay and been happy, too.

You can check out my site - www.pyronamix.com. I am an experienced lampworker who was using concentrators for torch work before taking over an established concentrator sales business - SunCoast Beads (the owner, Paulette, recently retired). Paulette introduced the on-line lampworking community to using oxygen concentrators over six years ago. Her (and now my) supplier has been selling to lampworkers much longer than that.

I sell the new 10 LPM Regalia as well as reconditioned 5 LPM units.
