There are various hypoxia (altitude) systems on the market that vary widely in price. Here are some notes I've made while looking at the market place.
==Mechanical Hypoxic Generators==
Mechanical generators use a compressor
===Hypoxico===
Hypoxico systems is an established manufacturer. The prices I was quoted in 2009 were
* Everest Summit, $4,900. Provides 12,500 ft, or 21,000 ft with a $200 adapter.
* HYP123, $5,500. Provides 12,500 ft, or 21,000 ft with a $200 adapter. Upgrade to HYP100.
* HYP100, $4,900. Provides 9,000 ft, or 21,000 ft with a $200 adapter. Upgrade to HYP100.
* Conversion for use in exercise - $700
* Tents - $350+
===Go2Altitude===
Go2Altitude focuses on systems for intermittent hypoxic training rather than sleep systems. The cheapest system is their One Person / Portable.
* One Person / Portable 2010, $5,990 (6,500 delivered). Provides 21,000 ft and comes with pulse oximeter, PC software and hoses/masks
