Overall , get one with a gauge , I wish I had one so I could measure the psi that I'm using… Ill get one someday.
Hi Guys !
Electric pump ? I don’t think so !
I know I’m new at this……..BUT…………….
Avocet8 - in his excellent 101 pumping treatise, plus others of you giving me, and all of us good advice, my feeling is this:
I saw a video (American) last week, dealing there with problems of diabetics (like me!) not always being able to get it up, on request. (That’s a penalty for getting diabetes, so if you have any say in it - don’t bother getting diabetes ! ) Sometimes I’m OK, but never as good as I was 40 years ago ! So that’s why I’m pumping OK ?
In the video, it showed a nice guy getting it on, and showed his cock inside the tube (much the same as our type), and when he switched on the pump, his cock went INSTANTLY up to the end of the tube - Zap ! Wonderful ! But perhaps it was trick photography ?
Seems to me, that all of you have been telling me to take it slow at first. Now that guy definitely was not slow. Like Avocet9 said, the blood does not just go Zap into our cocks, it takes a while, even when you’re 16 ! That blood has to get there somehow. As we get older (like me!), clearly the vascular structures involved with arousal and erection, get a bit narrower, so it stands to reason that you need more time and not to force an erection too fast.
I guess these electric pumps give a good pull, but my guess is that you don’t have much (or any) control over what’s going on. If I read you right, CONTROL is what it’s all about ?
When I use my cheapo plastic trigger pump, I have to wait until my dick is sucked into the tube (it feels nice !) so that my foreskin is not too stretched at first. (Please see my other post on Foreskins) When it sticks to the side of the tube, it pulls it out until it hurts. BUT, I then let off the pressure, and when my foreskin has re-covered my glans, I resume the pumping in stages, until my foreskin is fully retracted, and my gland is resting on all sides of the tube; then. and only then, can I apply the full pressure and hold it. I have limited this pressure vacuum to 3 to 4 inches of Hg by the way, thanks to you guys).
With the all electric model, which I’ve never even seen, (except in the video), you would not be able to get any control of this sort; neither presumably would you be able to do my jelq routine while still in the tube ?
Any other views ???
