What is it you mean by porous adhesive tape? Can you kindly give a bit more insight; brand name or a link to the product please?
I use Opsite (for those leisurely soaks in the tub). works like a charm.

HOWEVER, it sticks to the sensor so well, that removing the Opsite tape will likely pull the sensor off.
The answer is to cut a circle of paper and place it between the sensor and the tape, so that the tape goo only attaches to your arm and the paper, not the sensor.
It is a lot less phaff than it sounds.
