Oh, sorry...I didn't see it there. I was going to suggest the P30i if you were using the P10. I use the P10, but occasionally it slips up close to my eyes and that wakes me.

I can't think of anything else now that I figured out the mask thing. If I decide to take my mask off after too long of not getting back to sleep I will fall back to sleep and not wake up for hours straight (until my alarm goes off)
I was hopefully after only waking up 3 times in 4.5 hours a couple nights ago (that slowly it'd adjust) but I woke up 5 times in 4 hours last night. Not planning on giving up completely or anything but man is it frustrating.

hello!
Starting mid January I have been able to consistently get 7-8 hours of sleep without frequently waking up since changing to the 7.0 min. I've left the max open but is it worth dialing that down? If so how would I do that. I have about 4 weeks worth of solid sleeps data but i'm not sure what to post since it's so many days. Most days my 95% pressure days is between 8-9 but I have two days total over the course of these four weeks that it went up higher then that.

I would leave your pressure settings where they are. It's wonderful that you are getting good solid sleep now!

RE: New User - Advice greatly appreciated.
Is there a reason for wanting to leave it wide open at 20 versus dialing it in to something more customized? I generally find when I do wake up from it it's from when it's jacked way up from either an RERA event specifically. When going through my data comparing it to my sleep journal nights I seem to get RERA are the days I'm still exhausted all day. Attached below are two examples of nights I feel absolutely crappy the next day. (And on the next post below I will add examples of nights I feel good. And the only thing in common I can figure out is RERA's and the pressure going way higher then any other nights) - I've only had two really crappy nights recently.
Here's some examples of recently good sleeps / not exhausted. edit: they got mixed up when I added them. -- the second one is the bad sleep and the other 3 were good.
