RE: Full Face Mask, light and no forehead bar?
Thanks for everyone's advice on trying a chinstrap.
I have done, and it has made a world of difference to my leaks. I should have put one on ages ago. I just didn't want to. I don't like wearing it but realise it has now become part of the package. Without it, it is a waste of time wearing the mask. All was going well for a week or so and next thing leaks started again, so I changed my pillow and now between the new pillow and the chinstrap I mostly have a respectable number for my leaks every night. Thanks for the advice about not rushing out and buying a FF mask. I really don't think I could handle one of them after the P10. Surferdude, I downloaded an app with some white noise and it is very relaxing. On this board we learn something new every day.
Sleep Tight...

I have used 2 FF masks since starting in Jan 2014 - the ResMed Mirage Quattro, and presently the F&P Simplus. I try very hard not to sleep on my back, as that raises my AHI substantially. As a side-sleeper, I have successfully used both masks. The Mirage was somewhat finicky, but I have no trouble with the Simplus. On occasion, I have found myself with my face buried in my pillow, and not caused significant leak. I'm sorry your experience with a FFM was less than pleasant, but many of us do not have that trouble.

Under my avatar, there is a "Warning Level: 0%" - what is that and what does it mean?

If you were not a good girl, it would say something like "Warning Level: 10%" The only one that can see that is you. I can see mine. Mine does not indicate I have been a good boy.

RE: Full Face Mask, light and no forehead bar?
Becker, you are so right. I too have the Simplus and I LOVE IT. However, From my experience with 1st nasal pillows and now a ffmask, if I had a choice I would work very hard to make the nasal pillows work. I guess I got spoiled with the nasal pillows. Hope this makes my statement a little clearer.
