A few questions to ask LiveO2 imitators...

A few things imitators may say about LiveO2 to mislead you...

LiveO2 Doesn't have Outflow Pressure. Misleading - LiveO2 is cleanly designed not to long hoses that connect to a pond valve. See About Positive Pressure.
LiveO2 doesn't have Adjustable Flow. Misleading - LiveO2 doesn't need positive pressure to push air through long hoses that connect to a pond valve. See Neutral Airflow
LiveO2 oxygen delivery tubes are compromised. Misleading - Imitators have claimed for the last year they use silicone but shipped systems using PVC knowing that most customers won't know the difference. Before you buy - be sure their descriptions are accurate. LiveO2 has exclusively used silicone for the past 8 years. See LiveO2 Clean Experience
LiveO2 is not upgradeable. False - our exchange policy enables our LiveO2 standard customers to upgrade to a properly engineered LiveO2 Adaptive Contrast system in the first 90 days without having to tolerate a poorly engineered product. See Upgradeable Reservoirs
LiveO2 lacks Adjustable Air Purity. False - LiveO2 low oxygen air is adjustable. LiveO2 adheres to established safe oxygen levels. See Adjustable Outflow Purity
LiveO2 reservoirs leak oxygen because they are sewn . Misleading - Sewn construction prevents overinflation but does not affect fill times. Ask the imitator how much faster the imitation reservoir fills than a LiveO2 reservoir? About LiveO2 Reservoirs
Imitation reservoirs are cleaner than LiveO2. Misleading - All plastics release gasses from chemicals used for manufacture. Contradicted statement should be viewed with scrutiny - or subjected to the sniff test. See About LiveO2 Reservoirs
LiveO2 will be damaged by overinflation because it does not have a relief valve. Misleading - LiveO2 does not need a relief valve because the construction prevents over-inflation. See Reservoir Design
LiveO2 fails to provide desirable colors. Misleading - LiveO2 is white to enable users to see cleanness. Dark colors hide mold, mildew and dirt. See Reservoir Design
Pulse Oximeters. Not misleading.
LiveO2 Adaptive Contrast does not have adjustable low-oxygen mixtures. False - Our low oxygen mixtures adjust from ambient to 14% oxygen. See Variable Low Oxygen Air
LiveO2 has fewer mask options. False - LiveO2 has a superior premium mask options than imitators with less airflow obstruction. LiveO2 users usually prefer the LiveO2 Standard mask because it is easy to put on and works best for multiple users. See About Masks
LiveO2 has fewer mask sizes. Misleading - LiveO2 has four premium mask sizes and two regular mask sizes available, small child mask available on request. See About Masks
LiveO2 does not include a Mask Cleaning System. Misleading - imitators assert that ozone will remove dried saliva. We urge LiveO2 users to allocate an affordable mask to each user for hygiene. See About Cleaning Masks
LiveO2 lacks an oxygen hose strap. Misleading - LiveO2 uses a single hose so it doesn't need a hose suspension system. Imitators need straps because their product uses multiple hoses that are usually in the way. See About Upgradeable Reservoirs
LiveO2 lacks a suspension system. Misleading - LiveO2 customers often choose to hang their reservoir from the ceiling so we include hanger system choices. See Hanger Options
LiveO2 Lacks Connectivity for Multiple Generators. False - LiveO2 systems have a fill rate option that determines how many connected air separators are included. Select Fill rate single user and dual user systems
Warranty - not misleading except LiveO2 accepts returns with restocking fee. See Return Policy
Imitators would like you to believe support and training are unimportant. Misleading - The physiology of LiveO2 is profound. LiveO2 invented Adaptive Contrast and high capacity reservoirs over the last decade. The experience we gained in our decade of effort has taught us many things that newbie imitators simply do not know. If you are serious about either performance or health - there is no substitute for LiveO2 experience. See LiveO2 Professional Training

About Masks

Our masks are superior quality and provide the highest airflow options. Imitators often misrepresent LiveO2 mask systems to confuse shoppers.

LiveO2 Masks in a Nutshell...

	Standard	Premium	Note
Multi-user Environments	Yes	Expensive	Personal Item for each person
Demo Environments	Yes	No - Difficult to sterilize between users in demo. Expensive to have enough masks.	Standard mask preferable
Weak Breathers	Beneficial	Ideal - Zero to high resistance to increase strength	Airflow resistance strengthens respiratory muscles
Users with injured lungs	Beneficial	Neutral	Partial pressure swing in lungs improves CO2 and O2 transfer during inhalation and exhalation.
Large & Small Faces	Acceptable	Ideal - 4 sizes securely fit all users	Standard is usable 95% of the time
Aggressive Athletes	Acceptable	Ideal with optional airflow resistance inserts

Outflow / Positive Pressure

Imitations assert that positive pressure is intended to make breathing easier. This misrepresents the science of breathing - see below.

Positive pressure is a performance reducing gimmick to compensate for high airflow resistance from lengthy hoses and repurposed valves.

Confirm that imitations will mount safely and securely on your exercise equipment before purchase.

Chest cavity expands to create a vacuum during inhale, and compresses to create pressure for exhale.

LiveO2 adopted a neutral airflow pressure design because airflow resistance is part of effective breathing...

Adjustable Outflow Purity

Our imitators represent their products as capable simulating an altitude of 25,000 feet, or 8.1% oxygen levels.

They apparently don't know that most humans will pass out when exercising with air with less than about 10% oxygen.

About Oxygen Reduced Breathing Mixtures

Breathing oxygen deficient air can be harmful

Do you really want an imitation?

Why LiveO2?

Safe Minimum Oxygen Level - LiveO2 low oxygen mixture is proven safe for over 60 years in the aviation and with thousands of LiveO2 users over the last decade.
Variable Low Oxygen Air - Users can ramp their hypoxic level from 21% (room air) down to 14% (minimum safe oxygen level) as they gain confidence.
Easy Switching - LiveO2 snaps between air mixtures in a fraction of a second with no air-flow shut off.
Easy Mounting - LiveO2 easily attaches to any exercise equipment or you can hold the control. Compatible with assault bikes and rebounders.

Oxygen Only vs
Adaptive Contrast
Performance

LiveO2 invented Oxygen-only Reservoir...

LiveO2 Standard is the standard oxygen training reservoir. It is competitively priced and sold as a reservoir only system.

We urge customers to explore Adaptive Contrast because it is very superior to oxygen-only training. We know the biggest investment our users make is the time they spend exercising.

This is why we strongly promote Adaptive Contrast over LiveO2 Standard.

LiveO2 Standard System

LiveO2 original oxygen reservoir system.

EWOT is outdated. Don't buy an oxygen-only or EWOT system before you understand why Adaptive Contrast is better...

Imitators hide the LiveO2 secret. Oxygen-only systems perform less because oxygen is a vasoconstrictor...

BACK TO TOPICS

Why is Adaptive Contrast Better?

Adaptive Contrast uses low-oxygen air to prime your body for oxygen. This effect prevents the oxygen-vasoconstrictor effect from restricting blood flow to tissue.

Adaptive Contrast outperforms oxygen-only systems several-fold. Don't take our word for it. Dr. Lou Trovato is a long-time LiveO2 Adaptive Contrast user who decided to install LiveO2 Standard in his office. Here is his story...

Adaptive Contrast vs Oxygen Training

Adaptive Contrast outperforms oxygen-only systems because...

Every customer who trains for performance needs Adaptive Contrast
Every customer who is physically challenged needs Adaptive Contrast

Reservoir Construction

LiveO2 delivers a pure and clean experience...

Fill Time is determined by the air separator. The 900 liter reservoir fills completely in about 90 minutes from a 10 LPM generator.

The white reservoir assures cleanness inside and out. A zippered port enables cleaning, inspection and prevents over-inflation.

LiveO2 reservoirs hold oxygen for hours with an ultra-thin membrane.

No other brand in the world has gone to the lengths we have to ensure you are getting the safest, most effective and highest quality products and materials in the world.

About Upgradeable Reservoirs

LiveO2 does not offer upgradeable reservoirs because we are committed to a safe, diverse and uncluttered workout experience.

LiveO2 Standard customers who decide to upgrade to Adaptive Contrast in the first 90 days can exchange their reservoir for full purchase credit.

Our policy protects LiveO2 customers dangling excess hoses and clunky valves - and assures they discover the upside of Adaptive Contrast before it's too late.

LiveO2 with Adaptive Contrast uses a single hose design. No clutter ever. Maximum freedom with workout equipment

Compare the LiveO2 switch to an imitation valve.

13 seconds with LiveO2 switch. US Patent 2019010126096 A1 prohibits imitators from duplication for 17 years.

1:56 min. Assembly and attachment difficulty.

Things to consider before you purchase an imitation...

Don't be misled by upgradeable reservoirs that are cumbersome and incompatible with most workout equipment...
