Re: Portable Oxygen Systems
I bought the Inogen system as I did not want the hassle of getting refills... just plug it in and re-charge. I did not want to feel constrained in when to use o2 with a tank system because of the refill hassle/inconvenience. I did a series of very long XC's a week or so ago and had it on all the tim...
