Nooby Pressure question

Hey folks.

Pretty new hear, had a Pump for about 2 months now.
On the pump its Kpa .

So I been using pressure 35, there’s also 2 other modes 45 and 55 but I haven’t gone near them.

How does kpa relate to the other pressure I have been seeing on this forum? 5 and 6 is this another reading of some sort?

My question is, is 35 ok? At first I got a few red spot here and there but nothing crazy . Now its much better and seems to be fine.

I will share my pumping over the last 2 months.

Length is the same 14.5cm over the 2 months
Girth has increased 1cm from 12cm to 13cm

Pretty happy overall to be honest and it feels good getting a bit more girth on the old man .

Vac pumps typically measure inHg, which has range of 0 to -30. If your gauge reads kPa you need to convert -5inHg into kPa to find the equivalent value. Just google kPa to inHg for the conversion.

For the majority of pumpers the maximum vacuum they need to work with is -5inHg. You may occasionally read a very experienced member going to -10inHg, but most guys can’t handle that level of vacuum.

Thanks for the reply.

So inHg is inch of mercury?

Holy crap 5inHg is 16kpa .

So I been pumping 10inHg!!

Crap. I need to lower it. I mean 35kpa does feel that bad to be honest. Maybe the digital gauge isnt exact?

Do I need to worry?

Too much vacuum can result in petechiae (red spots/broken capillaries), edema buildup and blisters (bad). Some guys report poor eq from too much time and/or vacuum when pumping- basically over stressing their penis.

Ok thanks for the reply.

Could I ask what EQ is ? I have looked in glossary but can’t find it.

Erection Quality?

That’s right

I use 10 Hg, but more pressure = less time on work. 1 set = 5 minutes with a rest 1-2 minutes, i can do 4-6 sets. My first set is always lower (7 Hg). I do some stretch with cream on the middle of my training. It’s work fine and no edema. But first you can use maybe 7-8 Hg and up gradually

Ok .

Thats good to hear.

I have been keeping to my routine.

10hg into 10 sets of 2 mins each but with about 30 seconds in between.

Seems fair. And doesnt get any edema like I was at first.

Thanks for the message.
