Now for the important part: I would not recommend the model featured here. Once you compare close up photos for the promoted model to the variant I link to below, you can understand better. The model below has a slightly raised control pad. What you don't see well-- if at all-- is that there is a USB Type C port on the ridge that raises the control pad over the cloth eye mask.It's built in.

The older masks use a connector that's part of a very thin, brittle wire with a very thin insulation outer coat that you have to fish out and tuck in to the mask. The wire tends to die in 12-18 months of nightly use. Regular bending every night and morning. Ultimately wearing out. (And even worse: the models I used to use have an obsolete Micro USB connector. Maybe they now use USB-C. I cannot say.)
The built in exterior USB-C connector of the newer model eliminates the wear and tear that are inevitably going to kill the wire in the older design.
I tried the code on the superior model and it does not apply. So I suspect they're exhausting the old supply. I would rather pay full price for the superior, more durable design. Or you can just wait for a promo. (You can use the Amazon comparison site or a Slickdeals alert if you want to hold out for a future sale price or promo.) This isn't a pricey product at the full price so you might want one right away and then buy a backup if/when the price drops.
