RE: ASV Machine
Here is last night with the Simplus. I think I've finally got it! I just have to make it a little tighter!

RE: ASV Machine
 Not bad at that. Comfort was good I guess. Looks like you may have a lottery winning combo there Larry. Congrats.

Yes, thank you Dave. Tonight I'll tighten it a bit and this might be it. Sheesh, it's been a fight!

RE: ASV Machine
Larry,
Try laying in your normal sleep position and turn on the machine. Using hand pressure, adjust the mask until the leaks stop. then while holding the mask in this position, tighten the straps to take up the slack. One last thought; the Simplus seems to position a little lower on the face than other FFM's. Good Luck!

RE: ASV Machine
Crimson,
Thank you! Actually, when I go to sleep there are no leaks. They appear out of nowhere! I think it may be because the elastic is new. ResMed has a test. I have never gotten it to work! Sitting, lying down, it doesn't matter - I always get the frowny face! I try it with all my masks. It may be because I have a beard. SleepRider had me set the link differently and that seems to work - at least with masks that I have worn more than once.

FWIW I study for sleep studies every night and all noon-ish naps I take now. Soon I may even be able to pass the sleep study and I will have a degree in eyelid diagnostics.
