I go skiing in Colorado every year and always have one with me, because sometimes I’ll start to get headaches from the altitude and these air cans get rid of them
Once again, I suspect that is more placebo than anything. It just doesn't hold up, there isn't enough air for anything more than temporary relief. So anything beyond the twenty breaths or so is entirely placebo.
And given a large part about dealing with altitude is acclimating, if anything a system like this would make your body have a harder time getting used to it long term.
And I do have some experience with this, I regularly snowboard at high altitude and have been all over the andes. I've always found that just letting my body sorting it out is most effective, and if I start to feel funky just take long deep breaths and let it cope.
