RE: Bleep Eclipse + Mouth taped = Leaks ? - Daiseki - 09-25-2023
Kathy, I used the Bleep Eclipse successfully for a coupled of nights. Then I noticed that the base of the nose connector separated from the plastic housing and a very small filter was being tenuously held in place by a very small piece of velcro. It seems that this mask/nosepiece is not of solid construction so I picked up a N20 nose mask which works very well for me. The Cover-Roll tape is very solid but quite sticky so perhaps not good for soft skin. I would try to first attach the tape to some object and then remove it so it is not so strongly adhesive and then put over the mouth. Once the leaks are gone don't forget to ignore OSCAR events which occur immediately after movements or arousals which often precede events and are normal/usual occurrences during sleep.
