I’m about to purchase a Mountain High oxygen system for the mosquito.
Does anyone have any advice on purchase or configuration of the system?

I've has one of these in Alice now for about 4 years. The MG EDS system
has a setting that will start distributing oxygen at 5,000ft - which I
generally what I use. This means that I get less fatigued by low oxygen
levels (and this effect starts well before 10,000ft). The system is FAA
certified to 18,000ft using a cannula (and above that when using a mask
- but MH have flown a cannula based system well above 20,000ft whilst
maintaining 90% blood/oxygen saturation).
If you have an aircraft fuselage mount for an oxygen bottle, then buy a
largish bottle rather than one on the smaller "personal" ones.
For filling, I have an E sized cylinder from BOC along with a
transfilling kit. Works well for me.
