Wearing vac extenders long durations

I have a Penimaster Pro, but I assume the following question applies for basically all vac extenders:

How do you guys know how long it is ok to wear an extender for without checking your glans? I have not been able to use this device because when I wear it I am concerned that I should check my glans every 30 minutes to make sure it is not numb. But if you need 5 minutes every 30 minutes for another day just to go to the bathroom and remove and then reapply your extender, then it is difficult to get anything done. I do not want to spend 15% of my life taking an extender on and off my penis.

Is this not a problem for you guys?

With vac extender, it is not possible to just reach down and touch one’s glans to see whether or not it has sensation. So I would think this is a huge disadvantage of vac devices.

You will find the answer to your question in the use of vac 3 .

Can you elaborate? I see no real difference. You still can’t check the state of your glans without removing the device.

The difference is : penimaster pro stop the blood circulation around 40 minutes , the vac3 is better can using for 70/90 minutes without side effect :) .

Have other people described this? Is it your personal experience? How many hours a week do you wear an extender? That’s still a huge amount of time spent every day fiddling with dick apparatus.

Many users in my italian section and my personal experience also, after ” adjustment period ” can using it to 5 from 8 hours everyday , of course to wear extender around 1000 hours is a big and difficult work .

I think not need check glans every 30 minutes :) , try to using step by step 40 minuts 50 .. after 60 to arrive maximum 90 minuts , it’s possible and regular will make your work less :) .

I use the penimaster pro and can wear it 3hrs no problem without removing it. The glans never gives any problem. I use the larger sluice. The smaller sluice cuts off the blood flow for sure. You can tell if your glans is getting numb. You will start to find it unbearable. The only problem with the larger sluice is the glans can slip a little on the outside so the sluice places a line of pressure across the glans and it’s the bit that peeks out that will have less blood flow.

I know its about the vac but I would like to add that Since I converted to a noose from a vac I haven’t had a problem and my time has been more productive. So I will give you my quick pitch :) just so you have an alternative.

1/starting with just a mild pull is more productive and comfortable, when you start to feel less pull then add rods, I would not worry about spring tension.
2/With a noose you can look down and see the glans condition instantly.
3/I can take it off and on in 2 secs.
4/Its a different pull to the vac and In my opinion and a better one.
5/I wear it from 1-2 hours at a time (I only advise 1 hr then pump a bit of blood in then put back on)

Don’t get me wrong the vac is great but There is more options. The Noose gets a bad rep and its because people use it wrong, to much force being the main problem. The same goes for the vac, some give it a bad rep for the same reasons. If sticking with the vac 1 & 5 still apply.

Interesting. Well maybe I will have to get all three to find one that works (i.e., get a Vac extender and a noose head for it in addition to the vac head). The vacuum stuff is scary because I find my head goes numb without my realizing it.

bogtrotter, I always thought it was the “split adapter” that was choking of my circulation. I never saw the larger sluice option. I’m only 5.2” girth and an average, if not smaller than average, glans. Was numbness problems the thing that inspired you to get the larger sluice? How long was it taking you to go numb when you were using the standard sluice?

I’d be more worried about blistering. I remember if I wore it for long periods it would blister by the second or third set.

sentii, I only used the standard sluice for a short while. My girth at the time was 5.5” and it was clear it was way too small. I bought the larger ones the same time I bought the extender. You can try using two large sluices at the same time. I tried this while extending at high tensions, to reduce the likelihood of the glans slipping. I stopped using the split adapter finding that two large sluices is better than the split adapter with one large sluice. Now I just use one large sluice and no adapter and keep tension of 2kg or less. Your glans is smaller than mine so it’s the small sluice and not the vacuum unit itself that is causing your numbness.
