Unfortunately, most of them have not been DEILD re-entries, the main reason being that the volume's been too low until a couple days ago. I was only raising it 10% each night it failed, which means it took ~5 days to get to the current volume. (I probably should have increased it by 20% each time)
Before/during that, there were other issues such as bugs, and not being able to increase the volume loud enough to keep from disturbing family members. Both of those are now resolved, I believe (I fixed the bugs and got a bluetooth earbud), but it has delayed the testing process.
I now have it at 100% volume, and it's woken me up the few times I've tried it since then. (with the last one being a partial wake-up, I believe, which then dropped me back into a false awakening) (If it's still too quiet, not to worry; I'll just need to have the prompts recorded, then edit the audio file to increase the volume there)
Last night was supposed to be the first "settled" night with the new setup (not just the volume, but some long-standing bugs were finally fixed), however my bluetooth earbud fell out. :mad: (Oh well. I'll retry tonight.)
In other words, so far it's mostly been just DILDs. Many of them have been induced by voice prompts, making their way into the dream and triggering greater awareness; but the DEILD goal has been mostly delayed until about now. Starting tonight onward (or a couple days from now, depending on if this volume is truly high enough), I should start regularly either getting DEILDs as intended, or cases where it wakes me but I (/my disloyal sleepy self) take it out and then fall back asleep without it enabled.
Hopefully I can keep the resolve to leave the earbuds in in those cases.
No, I sleep by myself. The website says it should work in bed with a partner, as long as you have the device aligned properly. I know in my case, the device is at bed-level, directly to the side, so if I were sleeping with someone else, I'd expect it to work anyway since my body would mostly (if on back) or completely (if on side) block the line-of-sight to the other person.
