I've been using my new chin strap and getting outstanding results.  
This morning I woke up early and was able to roll over and snuggle back to sleep with my comfort gel mask and chin strap in place.  No problems, no leaks.  

I think I've finally made it!!!!  I wish this success on every apnea sufferer.

Check out these usage numbers...Yeah!!!!!

Yep!!! Me too.  I have had the chin strap for 2 weeks tommorrow.   And it works great.  I finally figured out if put the strap outside of mask straps, I get a good solid fit with the mask and no leaks.  I tried the other way and I could not get a solid un-movable fit.   I have been sleeping rock solid and feeling much better.   I have Opus nasal pillows and I love them.

what kind of chin strap are you using? because i wear a chin strap and i believe i can still open my mouth at night, i do also use nasal swift pillows.

I went online and bought a Tiara Chin Strap for about $16.  They are lightweight neoprene and work pretty good for me.  

Looks like this...but in a sexy red color... j/k  The only drawback I can find is similar to a diver or surfer's wet suit it makes my chin sweat just a little due to it's insulating qualities.  So i just have to wash the chin strap out every few days.  I love it.

Mine was just given to me by my provider.  No name on it.  It is a single thread strap with a chin holder a little wide on the bottom.  Velcro adjustable.  It does not have a second lower head wrap, just one around the top.   Seems to work well for me.

So many people give up without ever knowing how many suggestions their are to try. These are great posts and pics, and hope that you will keep posting with updates.

I first got the single strap chin strap and it did not stay in place.  Then I got the Tiara Topaz adjustable and I still had to tape it past the velcro to make it fit properly.  I have since found out the Tiara Ruby comes in S, M, L.  with a measuring guide in the website, though it is not adjustable.  This is the one that is red.  I finally got a good fit.
