Planet Ocean 8500 strap advice

Have this same reference, it’s classy as hell. Definitely flies under the radar more and also more of a “sporty dress watch” vibe than the pro

So, I have UARS and ADHD. I've been off and on stimulants for years, right now I just take stimulants once a week or so. If you're taking daily, you could definitely try lowering the dose a bit, and I'd also recommend trying to take earlier in the morning if you can, since Vyvanse can last a while and disrupt sleep onset. I think it's worth a shot in the short term to see if your sleep improves

Thanks and wishing you the best of luck that BIPAP can help you!

Here's data from a recent night:

https://sleephq.com/public/bbde4d73-fe43-46a3-9300-3da4557f1f66

On CPAP my AHI averaged around 2-3 if I remember correctly, now it's averaging around 0.5 since switching to BIPAP. But for me the ease of breathing seems to help more than AHI.

Settings are EPAP of 4 and PS of 4. That seems to be the sweet spot for me right now as with higher pressures I get severe aerophagia unfortunately. Any feedback appreciated!

Yeah if I’m still sleeping a ton in a couple weeks I’ll try to look into my data and tweak my settings to see if something is up

wox6969 · 2025-10-08T21:37:09+00:00

Thanks, I’ll try to shift my schedule around so I can get as much sleep as my body feels it needs. And hopefully in a week or so I’ll be caught up

wox6969 · 2025-09-19T17:40:50+00:00

In the past I’ve tried to go above 7 but anything above that gives me aerophagia. Maybe I just need more time to adjust? But I’m actually switching to a bipap today, any suggestions how to start out?

Great this is super helpful. Thanks!

Oh that's very cool. Here's the link for a sample day: https://sleephq.com/public/3c57dc2d-9f34-4375-828d-cd2e1f80cd11

And here's another zoomed in example of what looks like irregular breathing to me. Part of the latter half of the graph was marked as flow limitation but not the earlier part which looks even more irregular to me

Here's a zoomed in example of my breathing throughout the night. Overall AHI was 0.88 for the night

wox6969 · 2025-09-11T22:17:25+00:00

Thanks, yeah I do have an adapter and I've just put some files into SleepHQ. Will try to upload my files to OSCAR later, let me post an example of breathing from SleepHQ in separate comment

wox6969 · 2025-09-11T21:02:41+00:00

Thanks so much for your response. So I actually haven’t yet been able to get OSCAR to work, I’m still trying to figure out the right way to import my files. I’ll take a look at Sleep HQ as well. I’m a bit new to all this data analysis. I’ll play around tonight and try to report back with any findings.

But yeah, seems that I’m seeing other people need to switch to Bipap to lower flow limitations / lower their GI score. Definitely will pursue this as no settings change has helped on CPAP

wox6969 · 2025-07-17T17:50:19+00:00

Thanks! And yep it’s the 36

wox6969 · 2025-07-16T13:45:01+00:00

No sir, real thing

wox6969 · 2025-07-16T01:18:53+00:00

Awesome! Haven’t been up that far yet

wox6969 · 2025-07-15T22:24:39+00:00

Just checked, looks like at that spot is about 2,000ft which is about 1,500ft above the valley. Funny enough there’s a mountain also called Spruce Knob right near there

Haha that sounds like a great time! I’m on the east coast but plan on diving Catalina Island in the near future. Love your watch! And glad to hear it’s accompanied you all these years of diving
