ZenPump Question

Hey Guys!

Long time lurker, It’s overdue for me to make a post. I’ve had intermittent journeys with PE and I am by no means small in girth or length. I like how PE feels and gives extra confidence where needed.

I’ve used VacuTech pumps (Before it closed up shop) and those felt pretty good. I’ve recently went into the foray of automatic and electric penis pumping. I’m in my 2nd week of using Zen Pump, 3 sessions a day for 10 mins. Weekend sessions are longer with less pressure.

My original purchase was the standard pump (2.5”x 8”), which seems it may not be the right size. I can do 30 KPA for 10 mins without edema but the tip of my penis hits the actual pump at the top, so I’m going pass the 8” marker. Decided to purchase the next size up which is the XL (3.25” x 10”). My question pertains to the pump base that they use. It’s great for protection but, It gets sucked up in the process of creating pressure. In the 2.5”x 8” cylinder, the base got sucked in a little below mid shaft. With the 3.25” x 10” cylinder, its about half inch to an inch below the glands. I’m beginning to wonder if I’m using this correctly? Are there other bases that can be used that doesn’t do that? Or should I forgo the base completely? With my previous VacuTech Pump (RIP), there wasn’t a base and the pressure was evenly distributed to the penis. While with the base, I do feel pressure all around but its more prominent on the exposed areas of the penis that’s not covered by the portions of the base being sucked in. I do like the base as it prevents the pubic area and balls from being sucked in as well.

Anyone with ZenPumps can shed some light? How do you guys use it?

Can anyone help with my question?

Perhaps transfer this to the pump section of the forums?

Do u still have the vacutech pump? I love mine and it is still going strong. What happened to those guys? Anyone know?

I might, but it may be somewhere deep in a storage bin. That’s with the hopes that it isn’t broken. However, I did find and another Penis base sleeve based on the recommended LeLuv pump and I’m waiting for it to come in. Based on the outside diameter, it should fit the zen pump and mitigate the pulling of the sleeve and allow complete pressure on the penis.

On another note, I applied less lube on the seal area for the Zen sleeve and it limited to an extent how much was sucked in the tube.
Can anyone clarify if I’m over thinking this? Does having the material being sucked in the tube reduce gains or pressure?

If my links are against guidelines, please adjust or remove them.

This is the sleeve that comes with the zen pump:

As you can see it does protect the penis but I don’t want to reduce pressure or hinder any gains when the inner portion gets sucked in.

Does the vacutech still work? If so I’m interested

I’d have to check, it won’t be any time soon though. Whenever I do get in that bin, I’ll post it up if its still working or not.

Well the LeLuv pump sleeve came in and it works great with the Zenpump. Although it is a tight fit, but it creates a complete suction that doesn’t cover the penis like the Zen penis sleeve. Ran through a 15 min session at 30 KPA with the new sleeve and I felt better expansion over the entire penis.

I have the Zenhanger too, and I found their base deteriorates and the hole for the penis gets big and then the scrotum gets sucked in. It seems that their bases are made to deteriorate so you end up having to buy their expensive ones.

As for the Leluv silicone sleeves, can you (Cloudz00x) give an update with the use of the Zenhanger pump?
I have the regular size cylinder and am trying to figure out which Leluv sleeve would work with it?
Which cylinder and which sleeve are you using?

Not 100% sure of the ZenPump or the intentions of how they designed it to be used, but from personal experience after using some ‘cheaper’ pumps for some time that included sleeves and then finally moving to a nice pump that requires no sleeve I can partially speak to the issues that might be at play here.

1. Sleeves are useless. Ive not once found one that didnt do exactly what you described. They either pull up into the tube and will limit the effective area of pressure, meaning the entire base is being denied a pump during workouts. Ive also ripped and had to repurchase several sleeves, making it an annoying investment in the long run.
2. If you are using a pump without a sleeve (which i believe is hands down the best way to pump) and your scrotum or other peripheral skin is being sucked into the tube, the tube is to big full stop. Going off of thick-walls measurements ( a pretty decent calculator for determining pump diameters without a sleeve) you would need a circumference of near 11-12 inches for a 3.75” diameter pump.

Id recommend to anyone looking into pumping or having issues mentioned in the above to consider looking into any of the manufactures that design pumps meant to be used without a sleeve. Also many of those manufactures tend to be generous on the length, so even if your above 6”-6.5” girth and need a fairly large diameter there should still be considerable room length wise like 9”-10”. And if your so hung in both departments already and your the jeff bezos of dick sizes many of these manufactures will do custom pumps, so theres almost no conceivable world in which you couldnt still order a pump that offers insane length while still providing a proper fit for your girth.

I currently own the Zen pump, and I did have problem with the base getting sucked up, when too much lube has been used. I have also had my balls get sucked into the base. What I have found to work for me, is I apply a light amount on my head, and slide it in. I have the Zen pump/ slash hanger. If you are having trouble with the base getting sucked in, wash it, dry it, and retry. You don’t want to much pressure. I stay around 25 kpa.

That’d be great if my dick was straight, but it has a definite curve. I’ve used cylinders which were narrow enough to cause my dick to hit the side, and at full mast, it’s not a nice feeling at all. So that solution won’t work for me and I’m stuck with wider cylinders and sleeves.. So I need to find a good sleeve and I’m hoping someone (maybe Cloudz00x) will tell us his experience with the LeLuv sleeves.

Hey Dirty! It’s been actually great. I’ve gone back forth from Zenpump sleeve and Leluv sleeve. The Leluv sleeve fits great around the cylinder so the size matches , slightly tight which us a good thing. It produced exactly what I want regarding pressure. The only issue is the sleeve also slightly gets sucked in but it goes in with the bottom portion of the shaft. Which leaves majority of the penis exposed to the pressure within the cylinder. However, at slightly higher pressure I did notice that the sleeve that seals on the bottom of the shaft becomes a bit aggravated. This of course is alleviated when your at lower pressure.

Overall, I’m happy with the purchase and I bought another for a different cylinder size.
