Going to order from Picturebrite....

I am going to order from picturebrite in a few hours. It seems to be the best deal out there for those who do not desire to build thier own. I thought I would pose this to the forum to gain any insight. I have read the pump size forum and have selected the correct size for my base girth, the 2 inch model.

I plan on combining different techniques ie jelq and pumping and perhaps some stretching. I have gained with wet jelqing but that was some time ago. The results have stayed with me for the most part. I would like about an inch more in length and girth. I am 7x5.25, probly just 6 in girth. BTW my base girth is 5.6 ish.

Thanks all.

ok then I am buying it. I know it has not been that long but what the hell right. I will tell you all how it goes…

I hope you will have a better fortune than me.

My picturebrite kit is unusable.
And anyway the quality, in comparison at my Lapdist, is very very low.

It makes it very difficult for people to give you advice on buying kit if they don’t know where you live. eg if you lived in Hong Kong it wouldn’t be much use if they quoted a place in Argentina. - (or vice versa)

You will get more help and advice if you give as much info as you can on type of model, Maximum cost, ev3en your stats will be useful. Then people have a better idea of how to help.

Godd luck with your gains.

My picturebrite cylinder is great.

I think that overall this is the best deal for me personally. I think this is a good way to go becuase it is pretty much an entry level pump. It was about seventy bucks total. Also, I though that I mentioned my stats and the size of the cylinder in my first post. It does have the gauge. This pump will be used in conjunction with a good jelqing routine.

Hey mark, could you elaborate on you picturbrite troubles and also why lapdist is better?
Sta-cool, how long have you had your kit and has it helped with your gains?

Thanks all

Yes,
I have problems with the couplers. The female seems “non standard” and the male is broken ( well, is broken the O ring ) so it is impossible to have a seal.

The cylinder is a bit chipped on the top.

The pump surely is not a professional one.

I emailed picturebrite about the couplers and I had no response.

Now I have intention to buy a new cylinder, surely not from picturebrite.

- NOTE: I cannot link to the pictures, but I am giving part numbers so you can go to the picturebrite site and see which items I am talking about,

If you got this pump, it is the same one that LAPDIST sells for 60 US Dollars:

P131 - Jim Diamond Metal Hand Grip Pump w/guage $34.00

Picturebrite sells two cylinder types:

P124 - Jim Diamond 2 inch cylinder — flat on top, not tapered (this appears to be the current model)
P134 - Jim Diamond Metal Hand Grip Pump w/guage & 2 inch cylinder == rounded on top, tapered. (This appears to be an older discontinued model cylinder that they include in the "free pump with cylinder")

I got the flat non-tapered one. Great quality, no seal problems. My pump I already had. Couplers fit perfectly - so "standard"

They accidently sent me the tapered one first. I did not open or use it, It did not look that great and perhaps this is the one that mark001 has troubles with.

(by the way when I told them of their mistake they IMMEDIATELY shipped out the proper one and told me to return the wrong one whenever I got around to it — very good cust service).

As to gains, I do a mix of jelqing stretching and pumping. My main cylinder is from bostonpump.com. I got the picturebrite for variety as it is larger than my other one. I have not had it very long. For what it is worth I did not gain girth until I added pumping to my routine.

sta-kool,
I have both pumps, Lapdist and picturebrite. They are completely different even if in pic they seem the same.

mark — thanks for the clarification. I have the harborfreight brake bleeder pump and assumed that picturebrite was selling a Jim Diamond-branded version of that, as LAPDIST does. THANKS.

I recieved my pump pretty fast but was not able to pick it up until yesterday. At first it did not hold vaccume but I noticed that the pump to tube attatchment was loose so I just tightend it and it worked very well. I went up to 5 hg and it felt pretty good.

“For what it is worth I did not gain girth until I added pumping to my routine.”

Thanks sta cool. I realize we all gain differently but none the less that is still good to hear. My mail goal is girth but would like to get up to 8” and 6” mid eg.

I have been out of the PE scene for a while but I figure I will just use the newbe routines for all three forms of exercise.

Thanks all.

CONGRATS!

I am sure you saw this thread already, but I followed the plan laid out in it to build up my time in the tube:

Vacuum Pumping 101

Personally I don’t think you will need to do a whole lot of jelqs along with the pumping. Maybe 50 to get ready to go in, and 25 or so between sets. Some people just stretch and pump, with only a few jelqs as warm up.

How well did the plan work out for you? Did you have to modify it much?

I figured, at some point, I would requier more jelqing due to my girth goals. I am about 7.1 bpel and 5.25 eg mid shaft about(about 5.7 base). I would like the industry standard 8x6. If I did want to go any further than that it would be in girth. I am actually in a hotel on a business trip and going to try my pump out for the first time tonight. Just 10 min at 3-5hg. Yup, just me and the o’l pump tonight.

BTW I was totally paranoid that the air port security was going to call me over the loud speaker “Could passenger x report to the nearest TSA terminal to explain your picture brite penis pump in your carry on luggage?

Thanks Kool

Sorry just saw this.

I just went a little slower than the recommendations. Built up to three 10 minute sets. I was doing 125 jelqs too, but began to back off of them and seemed to get better results.

What girth I have gained I attribute to the pumping.

Unfortunately I don’t have the privacy to pump for the next few months, so I am going back to manual only PE.

It looks like a Boston Pump Cyl. Does it have the built in cock ring? Looks like it.
