Anyone have ideas on where/how to get a medical bottle filled?
I took to a couple supply houses and they wouldn't fill without a script. They did tell me there is no difference in the quality of oxygen,however, aviation grade is tested for purity and water content and industrial O2 is not tested (and Av O2 ridiculous expenaive). Both places told me the medical bottle get the same O2 as industrial bottle. I called a couple doctors to get a script and they acted like I was a criminal (told them I needed for aviation). Apparently oxygen is in the drug category and people abuse it?!?
I typically use it above 10k and use to prevent headaches on long trips when wearing sunglasses with a headset.
