Leak rate issue while taping lisp shut tight.

[Phil7]

Below is a fairly normal night for me, where some nights look much worse.    This is with an AirFit P10 mask, and my lips firmly pressed together by BSN Medical Cover Roll  tape.
If I uses a Bleep nasal mask, I can get near a perfect 0% leak rate all night.   However, Bleep masks have a high cost and need constant supply re-orders.

I'm left with assuming the bad leak rate results I'm seeing are from moving around in my sleep, or possibly touching the mack while asleep (etc).    What I can't figure out is how to fix this?   How to keep a Nasal Pillow (in this case a P10) sealed through a night?   

Also, I have tested 6 other types of Nasal, and Nasal Pillow masks with all having the same result.   I'm really confused by exactly what is going on, or how to fix it (other than a Bleep).   Any thoughts?   Thanks

PS:  No I have absolutely no fear of vomiting in the middle of the night while fully mouth taped.   I'm over 50 and even and have never once thrown up while I was asleep.   All corporate run medical suppliers and diagnostics centers will act like you're going to die if you do it.  I've been doing it for 2 years now, every night.

If your tape and its application are not detaching and leaking, then the problem lies in the hose, or in the seal between the humidifier and the machine.

Or could be a mask leak. Not to get ahead of myself, but some mask leaks are caused by the straps being too tight. That sonlds counter-intuitive. But think about it this way -- if straps are overly tight, that can distort the silicone seal and cause a mask leak.
