Bath mate vs air pump question

So I have a bathmate hydromax 9 (sizes for 7inches or more) and an air pump that just came as part of an extender package I bought. The air pump is clearly smaller than the bathmate but I don’t know exact specs on it. I am currently just over 7 inches BPEL.

I mostly use the bathmate but decided to give the air pump a shot. It seems like the BM gives me more girth that lasts longer however it doesn’t ever push me past my BPEL of 7 until very recently where I’m maybe 1/8 inch past it.

When I tried the air pump I was able to get my length up to nearly 7.5 and it felt comfortable.

Would the lack of length expansion on the BM be due to the fact that it might be too big for me right now or is there a difference between using air/water?

I’m considering buying a smaller size BM to help with length gains but it’s a lot of money to drop if the difference is just air/water.

Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated.

I use the bathmate and have also used an air pump with a gague in the past. I noticed the same thing as far as the air pump giving me better length gains. That doesn’t mean air pump = more length and water pump = more girth tho. It’s different for alot of guys. Pumping mainly affects girth but some guys can get length gains more easily than others from pumping.

Whatever you do, don’t buy another bathmate. You dont need one. Invest some time into manual stretching to help with length gains if you’re not already doing so.
Honestly, the pumping CAN help length but regularly preforming a manual stretching routine will have much more of an impact on your length than pumping alone.

Does your air pump have a gague?
What else are you doing as far as PE?

Thanks for the response. My air pump does not have a gauge which is another reason why I’m considering another purchase.

As far as other PE goes, I do stretching and extending. The stretching is usually very low key, 30 secs each direction and a helicopter at the end. I do my stretching right before going into the extender to “warm up”.

I usually get around 5 hours a day in the extender with one planned rest day per week and will throw in rest days as needed if I’m feeling fatigued or my PI’s are trending negatively

Get an air pump with a gauge. You’ll never regret it.

Any recommended brands? I’ve read some guys talk about leluv being a good pump

Yep, they’re supposed to be great. I got my vealseal pump from pump toys.com

Disclaimer zero liability past present or future. Balance in life is a must. Increased pressures, increased time and increasing sessions per week to break down barriers can or may serious cause injuries. Been using a manual air vacuum with gauge and cylinder for 15 yrs. Its used occasionally to maintain progress made over time. Recently repaired a vacuum leak by installing a fresh O ring on the hose quick connector. This resulted in high vacuum pressures being reached very fast. Easily ended up with a doughnut.

I don’t think disclaimer warnings actually work in court. They exist to discourage lawsuits before they start, but don’t prevent them from going through. Nor do Terms of Service, if you ever want to sue a company that made you sign a contract, even contracts signing away your rights to litigation.

Clicking an agreement button or reading a disclaimer doesn’t give you the ability to waive existing laws, protections, and rights in your country. Your signature, clicks, etc. just doesn’t have legal power to waive the laws of your country.

There are people that sign contracts with cannibals to be eaten, but the cannibals are still charged with murder afterwards. You can’t waive your rights, you simply don’t have a legal right to waive your rights.
