Started using my chinstrap with my regular taping routine several weeks ago. I thought I 'd give it a go without any tape and to my surprise, leak rate has remained constant and well within parameters. Yes, no tape for me!!
Regards,
Rick

Re: Chinstrap = No tape!
Great, Rick. Glad to hear that works for you!
Wish that were the case for me. I've tried just a chin strap and have tried just tape.
My leak data shows that I have to use both... tape over my mouth and a chin strap.

Re: Chinstrap = No tape!
I tried the boomerang shaped tape and on the third night I ripped skin off my cheek. Owee! I don't think I'll do the tape thing again. I just ordered a "papcap".
