Chin Strap for Full Mask? - Heaviside - 12-07-2022

Any recommendations for a chin strap for use with a full face mask? Thanks.

Knightsbridge Dual Band cap. Buying in the US should be OK. Buying in Canada from US---wasn't.

I don't use it this way. I'm now getting good results using my F&P Evora Full with a soft cervical collar. I have to be really really careful with the bottom two straps. They were popping off; fine now when tightened a very little bit.

Thanks for the recommendation, Dave. Do you put the cap on over or under ther cpap mask?

On their site they now show both ways. Whatever works for you.

When I bought 2 some time ago i put the KDB on first. Then my mask didn't fit. So I got to buy a new mask....Way back that was Canada price $175 for 2 caps; $300CDN plus sales tax for the mask.

Now Larry shows that you can put the mask on first, then put on the cap.

I bought another one===maybe 3 months ago. Buying it direct was a bad experience. The Canadian suppliers no longer carried them. US price is really good in comparison.

One downside--I tried going to the washroom with my nasal mask on and then the KDB cap. Scarred the heck out of my new puppy. And he and I didn't sleep the rest of the night.
