Vacuum Pumping 101

I checked online. It looks like my local Lowes has a 10 pack for less than $3. I think I’m going to attempt to swing out there this morning and pick some up. Hopefully can return to pumping tomorrow.

I don’t know anything about these 2 black sleeves from ebay UK, but it only took about a minute to find them. Look around the site for yourself for other alternatives.

I got a Vacu-Tech elliptical and it did the same thing . You can feel the bubble effect inside . And if you look at it in the light , on angle , you see light lines like it’s
deteriorated . However it works . I used coconut oil .
Can’t clean it , it’s in the plastic .
dooks out !!!

Picked up new O-rings today, put in on, and we have suction again! Thanks gprent for the size. Much better than waiting for Leluv to deliver a new set (now I’ll have 19 spares, just in case).

Is it normal to come out of the pump cold? Now I am wondering if I had cut circulation off during my session.

When you pump at high pressure the blood flow is reduced. If you pump at high pressure for too long, you end up cold.

I was trying to keep between 3-5hg. Never went above 5.

Are your dorsal veins pressing against the cylinder?

There are 2 things you can try. When I pump I am pretty much constantly moving the tube around by shaking it a bit or milking it and this makes sure there is no blood restriction where the tube compresses your fat pad.

The other thing that will ensure you come out warm is go to Walmart and in the pharmacy area buy a Thermipaq 6X12 microwave heat pad that goes for around 10 bucks. I microwave mine for 80 seconds and it stays warm for my 30 minute session. The size is perfect for wrapping around the tube and keeping you nice and toasty.

My rice sock works well for me.

I tried a rice sock years and years ago and was very un-impressed with the result. Much like pain when exercising, your body telling you something is cold is an important thing to listen to.
The rice sock made my cock lose sensitivity in a big big way, it just felt very wrong, maybe others have better luck but I’d rather a cold cock with no blood in it for 20 minutes and my body saying “ok that’s enough” than thinking I can have a warm cock with no blood in it for 60, for example. That blood is kind of important now and then.

Should I feel more force upward or outward? I’m on my 3rd week of following avocet’s plan and I feel more expansion length-wise than width-wise.

Consider yourself lucky, I’ve got a 4.7” cock and every time I do PE of any kind it gets thicker. My tunica has no intention of ever getting longer, just wider. It’s the worst.

I have a 2.5” Cylinder that is just big enough to be frustrating.

I’m looking at silicone sleeves/doughnuts to effectively provide better suction, without pulling my lymph nodes of balls up in as well.

Anyone have suggestions as to whether I should get the sleeve-like one with an elongated inner structure, or the simple ‘doughnut’ pieces that only attach to the very edge of the cylinder opening?

I’ve tried the doughnut kind with some success, but I’m hoping this addition will get me back to pumping on a regular basis, so I want the best possible solution.

Any and all feedback/recommendations would be appreciated.

I’m mostly concerned with the effective suction provided, because I have a simple cylinder with a plastic, thin-edged base.

Thanks, I love this forum.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Just shy of 7”, I’d do anything to gain girth but PE has only given me slow, slow length gains.
