Question regarding length of cylinder

You are probably using pressures far greater than 4hg in the Bathmate.

Packing the bottom of the tube is fine.

Yes, on the Bathmate site it says that the maximum pressure with water is -0.40 bar, that is almost 12 hg/in, so this is the triple pressure of an air pump.

And that’s probably the reason.

Air pumping is more different to water pumping than I thought.

Water pumping is with more pressure over a shorter time (BM recommends not more than 15 - 20 mins per day), while air pumping is with less pressure over a longer time (30 - 60 mins per day?)

So maybe my penis will be engorged after 30 or 40 mins of air pumping. I will see …

Anyway, I’ll go with air pumping over the next months because I can do that even during work (home office). Maybe I’ll throw in a BM session every now and then. And next winter, when I have less work in my job like every winter, I’ll switch to the BM for some weeks.

Have fun experimenting, and, as always, share your thoughts/results. Thanks.

Will do so. Thanks for your help so far firegoat.

Update: At the moment I am up to 2 x 10 mins air pumping. Will change that to 2 x 15 mins soon. I am pumping 5 or 6 days a week so I think I am on a good way. The air pump makes it really easier for me as there is not so much “work” to do as with water pumping (Bathmate). Air pumping is quicker, so I do much more days a week. Air pumping last year was only 3 or 4 days a week.

Once or twice a week (depends on how much time I have) I do 2 x 10 mins Bathmate sessions a.m. and 2 x 10 mins air pumping p.m. - those are the best days, they are a blast and leave me with a really huge flaccid. I love that! Will do that on Sunday again. Bathmate combines great with the air pump. Best of both worlds maybe.
