Hey Craig,
With the exception of the occasional wave day, we don't have much use for O2 here in the SE USA but a lot of our glider customers who fly in the mountains out west like the Mountain High O2 systems. This is probably the most common O2 system we see in gliders that come through our shop. The MH system uses a pulsed, on-demand regulator and that, I'm told, saves a lot of O2. Fairly important when you are flying out on the middle of nowhere when refills are scarce. These folks also sell the finger type pulse oximeters that monitor your O2 saturation.

Hope it helps!
