Good oximeter for Oscar
I have thought to buy an oximeter. Can you recommend an oximeter to me who uses Linux (Kubuntu) and Oscar? Is there better oximeters and worse oximeters? I think that fine, if it costs just a few tens of euros.

RE: Good oximeter for Oscar
The least expensive oscar-compatible oximeter that I know of is the Contec CMS50D+. It is also the most uncomfortable to wear overnight. I slides over one finger, and is like a big blob there. It can also slide off easily. Next up is the Contec CMS50F, which is worn on the wrist and has a rubber-like probe that fits over a finger and won't slide off. I think there is a new firmware version that may not be OSCAR-compatible just yet ... but I will be working on that, as I have a Torontec B400 that looks and acts just like the Contec.

Tried it once with OSCAR as well, and it worked fine. Not sure about Linux, as I use it on Mac, and sometimes on Win 10. As for the oximeter price, I've got mine from eBay. Forgot what the price was, but it wasn't too bad.

[Commercial Link Removed] Search for Contec CMS50F It is quite expensive if someone tries it a week or two. So I have thought that if it is possible to borrow such somewhere, it may be a cheap idea. Or if I buy it, I can use it so long how much I want. I think that an year is same kind than one or two weeks. Is it? -----
