Ha ha ha, Sorry Dan, you can stop slapping your forehead now...LOL. OK, I get it now, I just couldn't understand how the danged thing worked.
I put water in the 'unit', then put the medication 'cup' in, (with that rubber ring), and when I turned it on, I could see the 'medication' jumping all over the place. I couldn't see how the danged thing worked. Now I get it, that little cup sits *on top* of that little 'tower' in the unit, where the water is, and 'bumps' against the bottom of the medication cup, hence the medication jumps all over the place and causes mist. The heat they are talking about must the temperature of water I figure, DON'T put hot water in it <g>. LOL, I did say I was a numpty...LOL. Thanks mate. OK, I'm ready to go, bring it on, gimme your best shot Corona "90210" thing, <g>. I got the old big one, now I have one for her who must be obeyed...LOL, if needed or backup. It certainly pushes out some mist doesn't it, and I noticed it has an auto shut off as well, so you can re-start it again if you want. What a great little gizmo. Me and modern technology never were friends.

Ultrasonic nebulizers do not heat or boil the liquid to be nebulized. Ultrasonic nebulizers work by vibrating at a frequency that is somewhat above the normal sound range for hearing, hence "ultra-sonic." The ultrasonic vibrations must travel through a liquid for this to work, so you have to fill distilled water in the nebulizer up to the level where the clear plastic starts. Then you fill your CS in the bottom half of the little cup and insert that into the unit. There is a sealing ring that you install on top to keep it sealed properly. The point of the little cup is to keep the liquid to be nebulized away from the vibrating part of the nebulizer so it doesn't gum it up. Also, it lets you use less of the CS or whatever you are using. This vibrating causes tiny particles on the surface of the liquid to "jump" into the air, so to speak, and float in the air as a mist. Be careful installing the top of the nebulizer because it is somewhat fussy... Hope that helps. Dan
