Evora FFM Phantom Leaks
#21
RE: Evora FFM Phantom Leaks
Yes! It works!
Lately I'm using the blue silicone tape I found on Amazon. Much less messy.
I've done this on 2 Evora masks and it works on both.

Note.... The swivel won't swivel any more but I can tolerate that. Just can't tolerate the leak!
I haven't replaced my mask for 6 months, so I don't know if F&P has fixed the design flaw.

I don’t think they have. The swivel still spins and seems like it would leak. I went to Home Depot today and got clear silicone tape to seal it with

My swivel failed too.  I disassembled the swivel, wrapped one revolution of plumbers tape, and reassembled.  It held last night.  If that fails, I'll try two revolutions.

RE: Evora FFM Phantom Leaks
Great info on the leak issue. That's probably where my leaks were in the recent attempt to use VAuto. Great mask except for that stinger swivel.

Attach OSCAR, etc.

Everyone with this issue please make sure to contact Fisher & Paykel to complain about it.

Hopefully the "Leaky" wheel gets a fix. This mask is great for me except for that swivel connector.
