Just started with the LeLuv pump

I’ve been using the bathmate on and off for about a year. 3 weeks ago I decided to get serious about this, since my work has decided to go completely remote (No more Commute). So I started stretching and jelqing. So far that is going great and I have been sticking to the beginners regimen of 10 min stretching and 10 mins of jelqing. This part of my exercise is done about 7 in the morning once I get back from the gym. Then at 6 in the evening, I’ll take a bath and use the bathmate for 30 min.
After reading multiple posts on here about how I needed a pump with a gauge, I finally bought a Leluv pump with the protected gauge. Today was the first time I used it. Wow, the difference in the two pumps is crazy. I only 5hg for 20 min. I could tell my dick wasn’t use to this kind of pump. It felt completely different than the bathmate. Now I will say. The bathmate does give me a bigger pump, but like I said. This was my first day with the pump and I’m sure the bigger pump size will come in time. One thing I can say. The mental part of knowing your doing it the right way just feels good, if that makes any sense.
Anyway, I just wanted to put this out there in case anyone had any questions on the two or any advice they want to give me.

Great forum and thanks for all the great advice I have read so far.

Best to start at 4 hg or lower for up to 15 minutes and gradually add time and vacuum until you reach 5 hg and 20 minutes. At that point you can add a second session a day.

Yeah kind of noticed that I should, when I came out of the tube yesterday and had red dots all over my dick. Why is this so different, than the bathmate. Does the water make that much of a difference? Also, what times are seasoned vets staying in the pump for and how much hg?

Thanks!

When I was actively pumping, I would stay in for 20 minutes a day, twice a day at 5 hg five or six days a week plus one 45 minute session at 4 hg once a week.

Sorry, last question. Why am I not seeing much of a pump? I go in erect, but after 20 or so min. Whatever pump I did have was gone. Happened last night and today. Do dry pumps not give you as much as a pump?

Thanks again.

Hello gents. Currently have problems with the LeLuv. The last time I tried using it, it felt like it was slightly jammed on the gauge/pumping part of it and the gauge would shoot up to like 15hg but felt no pressure out of it. Anyone have a quick fix?

I would check the lines for collapse on the vacuum side as well as the gauge. The manometers can get sticky.

Check the connection of the hose to the cylinder. The quick connect connections can sometimes lock in without opening the valve. Try disconnecting and reconnecting and then push the hose into the valve securely.

Thank you guys. Going to try that
