So to me, condensation from the relative humidity in the air alone doesn't make sense. It wouldn't just be on the TQ and it wouldn't be focused around the warmer areas of the TQ. Unless the air has 100%RH, a surface has to be colder than the ambient temp for condensation to occur. I still think it's breath, personally, but OneClick doesn't seem to agree.
OneClick, you could prove it to yourself once and for all that it's not breath related - wear a CPAP mask for a night!
