I don't imagine +ve testing is a problem, I think the diaphragm presses against the cover but on a -ve there is nothing to support it but the needle.

Tha manual suggests only doing short -ve tests. I don't think it says anything about +ve durations.

I haven't yet had to soap test mine but it will hold a fairly decent positive pressure. I think you can also elongate the spring in the OPV to increase the +ve resistance. Is it in the video or the manual ?
