How should these hmes be stored after each use? is a ziploc bag sufficient?

They're only good for 7 days after the first use. I keep mine installed the full 7 days then discard. Since your breath is full of moisture, so is the sponge and I would recommend a paper box or bag so the sponge won't mildew like it can fully enclosed in plastic.

Can I moisten this for more moisture?

Hello, This is a single use device and no you should not "moisten" the device for more moisture.

Has anyone compared these against the ones sold by HDM (maker of the z1 and z2 travel cpap)? These look identical, but are quite a bit cheaper.

Worked fine for me, and are much cheaper.

Description

The MaxMed Heat Moisture Exchange filter (HME) for CPAP machines is designed to provide passive humidification during CPAP therapy. The HME filter is attached to a mask elbow in order to take in heat and moisture from the user’s exhaled breath. The moisture is then returned into the air stream for inhalation to help prevent dryness at the lungs. MASK: When selecting a mask, the MaxMed HME filter for CPAP machines will not work with masks that have a short tube extended from the mask frame. The HME filter must be very close to the moisture of exhale air to function properly. It must be connected to a mask with a simple elbow in order to give optimal results. CLEANING: The MaxMed HME cannot be cleaned. Originally, the manufacturer found the HME to be suitable only for one night’s use. After further research and testing, the device has been approved for up to seven (7) night’s usage. The MaxMed HME filter is manufactured in the USA and compatible with all CPAP, APAP, or BiPAP machines.
