==Recommendations==
I believe that the [[DIY Altitude Training]] (or similar [[AltoLab]] system ) is the most cost effective solution. For those wanting a sleep based system, Higher Peak offers the best value.
==Rebreathers==
Chemical generators use a chemical reaction to either remove oxygen from the air, or to remove the carbon dioxide from the air that you exhale, which is then breathed again. These systems are cheaper to purchase, but require the ongoing purchase of the chemical cartridges. These systems are only used for intermittent Exposure, not for sleeping.
==Semi-Permeable Membrane==
===GO2Altitude===
GO2Altitude focuses on systems for [[Intermittent Hypoxic Training]] rather than sleep systems and appear to use a semi-permeable membrane technique. The cheapest system is their One Person / Portable.Their focus seems to have changed to aviation usage and their web site is now http://www.hypoxic-training.com/* One Person / Portable 2010, $5,990 ($6,500 delivered). Provides 21,000 ft and comes with [[Pulse Oximeter]], PC software and hoses/masks
