I can probably hang 10lbs with the vac but at the higher weight the dead space forms between then tip and end of cap.
If i could get a good seal with the tip. I saw your taping and suggestions over at the vacuum hangers thread. I got to try the sponge trick.
So far Ive taped with micropore like a mummy would but still. Its not the taping. Its probably the cap. I’ve tried numerous sizes S, M, L, XL. Althought ive not tried taping like a mummy, which seems to work well tape wise, for larger than M cups. Im talking about phallosan cups and those cheap aliexpress cups. They are similar size.
I may end up just getting the LG hanger. Whats another $300. If i could just get a cap. And maybe a sleeve.
Or maybe epoxy an extension to the M cup. That way the vacuum is over more than just the glans cup. But a sleeve should do that trick just as well… a strong one.. but
I tried taping today mummy style plus wrapping the bib hanger stuff thats like rubber strap, cant remember the name, to increase the friction between the mummy job and the inside of the cap and reduce the space. But the vacuum still created the space. Not to mention i got a weird shooting pain in my tip after loading 8kg..
Anyway. Its an interesting problem.
I am thinking increasing the surface area of the distal end or head would reduce the vacuum needed to hang a certain weight. Like that guy so cleverly explained.
Therefore i think maybe using an L cup and create a massive tape job so that it is all bundled up and fits nice and tight inside the cup. Almost like a turkey leg of wraps or a baseball bat. Then put the sleeve on. And wrap over the sleeve with the therawrap, theres the name i couldnt remember, to support the cap as thise sleeves are elastic so to make it more riggig. I tried the last part already so that worked somewhat but still dead space at the tip.
Using the sponge thing or paper towel inside the cup.
The greater surface area should theoretically work. Imagining a big flat surface area vs a pencil the larger one will always hold better… but what if the pencils cup was longer? Would it be comparable? I guess not as the surface area woulf only be the tip and surrounding cone. The other areas would be off limits.
A more planetary flat shape vacuum cup would be ideal in that case. But because the head is not flat it is a problem it is more like a darn pencil.
So flatten the head as much and try to limit the horizontal tension of the tape around the glans going left to right so that perhaps the expansion is more panckakey. Then use the large cup as there is more surface area at the tip.
Is the lg hanger cup round inside or more flat than round?
