why can't you use it when administering oxygen?

Maybe because it is electrical and oxygen tanks are sensitive to spark and extremely flammable, but I am only guessing.

This is battery operated, so probably not ideal for an "always on" solution. I use mine for temporary oxygenation of a bucket while fishing/crabbing.

The liquid "fuel" burns itself out in 2-4 hours, tops, so we have never had to worry about 'how to turn it off.' I guess if you had to do so, simply cutting off the oxygen supply with a non-flammable object--a ceramic plate or metallic sheet???--would do the trick.

Yes, it is my understanding that this is how to use it. That is what I do. I bought one a couple of years ago and like it, but truthfully cannot say it has helped in anyway. I also bought one for my son, and he has asthma, I don't think he ever used it. Hope this was helpful.

A bike pump is normally used, or any air mattress can be used as well, but in an emergency you can also blow it up by breathing into it...it may take longer but it works fine.Great product and we still use if a lot.

Don't really know other than some sources say that is what it is for. I use it on my filters and am still breathing.

Have used it to inflate t0 80psi but difficult to use at that pressure, maybe that Im a weakling

I also don't see why not, but I'd assume some water could leak through the holes on the caps while you inhale. Maybe put some kind of cover over the caps that wouldn't restrict your breathing.

Your question is hard . You may read articles on Wiki to get some help . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_saturation_in_medicine

Co2 has proven to fail itself by getting to freezing temperature. This marker can use both but because Co2 fails and makes any marker inaccurate I would always use air.

Since the bottle is turned upside down, the LPG flows to the bottom, so air can not enter the bottle. Just a guess.

It doesn't mix with air because that would dilute it. It allows you to control how fast the helium is coming out so it doesn't pour out in one huge blast.

I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to that question. You might want to ask someone in the medical field before using it for that purpose. Maybe product manufacturer or seller could help.

Because I was in a hurry to use it, I just did it by mouth and quickly capped it so I didn't have this problem. Maybe it is more difficult if you inflate it with a needle?! I'm over 70 so it was a little difficult for me to get on initially but once I found out how it works for me I no longer have that problem.

It has too high of a pressure drop to pass enough low pressure vapor to be useful. You need to either put it upstream of the pressure regulator or use one of the quick disconnects made for low pressure gas.

I am sorry that I can't answer your question. I purchased this oximeter for, and sent it to my daughter. I have no experience with it.

It has to be specifically a medical regulater. I believe you can buy it from Amazon as well. Search for, "Medical Emergency O2 Regulators"
