Vac Hanging Method using Ball Weights

I posted a method I use for hanging and ADS in the pictures forum but thought someone here might also find this useful.

Basically I use a metal ball stretcher weight resting on top of a vacuum cap sealed with silicone. I find the best and easiest cap to use is half of a plastic 40mm vending machine ball. These are cheap and the right size for me but you can buy different sizes. I then create a vacuum seal with a widely available silicone tube and then put the ball stretching weight above the cap. This seems far more comfortable to wear than hanging weights from the cap as the weight seems pretty evenly distributed. I’ve found hanging the weight from a hook at the end tends to put pressure right on the tip of the glans but this method doesn’t seem to do this. Having the weight resting on the cap as it does is obviously far more stealthy than traditional Vac hangers and ADS. I use a 42mm internal diameter ball stretcher which rests nicely on top of the cap without applying any squeezing pressure. You can take the weight off without unscrewing it by simply taking the cap off first. I have a ring weight and a 55mm weight which is about 750g. Many different height weights are available including some very heavy ones from Secret Leather in the UK. I have just purchased a heavier weight which is 1.5kg and is very comfortable to wear with no slippage. Heaviest weight currently available is 2220g but you could stack several weights if your shaft is long enough!

Not sure if anybody has used this method before but I though I would share in case it benefits someone.

That looks great. I have thought of doing that with the conventional vacuum cap from Total Man, but just never did it. A super dense metal, like lead, would decrease the profile. How noticeable is it when you have it on?

I use one or two split round rings with my Total Man cap and sleeve. It’s more comfortable than the angled pull of the ADS retractor. I’m using it as more of an anti-turtling device than a stretcher, though.

It’s not noticeable under my pants, though I should point out most of my pants are pretty large, given I’ve lost a lot of weight in the last year or so. When driving a manual transmission car I sometimes need to make an “adjustment” to work the clutch comfortably, but it’s no problem after that.

If I was still riding a motorcycle, I expect the weights would collide with the fuel tank. The waist ADS would be a better choice there.

Hello Andy,

How much weight are you using?

I think the rings are just over half a pound each. I got them large enough to have a little clearance on the sleeve.

The weight leaves a nice tug. I can go for a walk wearing one but I wouldn’t wear it if I were meeting people or at work as it would be too noticeable I think. Sometimes I wear a ring weight at night while I sleep as it’s inner diameter is big enough to not be constricting. It keeps me more elongated as it tends to pull down over the top of one of my thighs.

The ring weight is pretty large. I’m thinking of making a roll using #9 lead shot in a bag. Will be much heavier and a lower profile

I use these in stealth all the time. I can also wear them for a couple of hours without any adjustments. They vary from 16 oz to 28, but you can add another 8-16 oz with this set up. I also like these as a warm up and cool down from my regular program. I attribute these as the main driver going from a grower to a shower.

Are those lead though? Would not want that in contact with skin.

I wrapped them in heat tape, covering up all of the lead. They also have the white rubbery spacers that lift you up off of the surface. You don’t actually touch the weight. Someone else had an idea of dipping them in a rubber coating, and I would give that a try if I made any more. But with this set up, I don’t have any lead worries.

+1 I hadn’t noticed this thread until now but I also do this with a few stacked ball weights, maybe totalling up to 1kg or 2lb. It gives a great stretch if freeballing going for a walk or a hike or gardening for one or 2 hours. As long as you have quite baggy shorts then I don’t think it is too noticeable and you can get away with it, but I wouldn’t do it in a social situation.

Whether it really is enough stretch to add to erect length I don’t know, but it sure gives a great flaccid hang.

I mainly use them for warm ups and cool downs. I think they prevent injuries by slowly stretching into the workout. Afterwards, they are great for continuing elongation. I don’t have any issues with them in public, especially in jeans. I also think they help by giving options to stay consistent. I use them on days where my schedule gets messed up. I would rather have a light day than a missed day.
