Got my pump, a little bit of a scare but I like it alot:)

Got my pump, alittle bit of a scare but I like it alot:)

First of all I’d like to thank avocet8 for the great pumping 101 thread, very useful. I got my LA pump in the mail today and I was so pumped:)

I cracked open the box and it was a pure sight of beauty. My girlfriend was like, “why you need that shit, blah blah blah”. I just ignored her and started checking it out. Everything looked good. About an hour ago i got to try it out. Following the pumping 101 thread everything when smooth up until i released the pressure after 10 minutes and this is the scary part. I couldn’t pull my dick out right away; I had a sudden rush of panic, thinking, oh my god, its stuck in there! After a couple more seconds it slid off fairly easy, but that was after i suffered a sever shock to the system:) . This is a warning to those who haven’t pumped yet.

All i gotta say is, I’m fuckin pumped on pumping; its great. I can’t wait until tomorrow and start hopefully seeing some gains after a few months.

I have a couple questions after my first pumping session that I’m hoping someone could answer. Do you guys heat wrap your dick before pumping and after? I just did after. Also, my gauge is kindov wierd. it reads 1…2…3….5hg, it skips 1 hg in the first set up until 5 hg, but reads 5 ticks after 5 hg up until 25hg. This is kindov confusing but do you know what i mean? Also i find 4 hg (which i think is 4hg) more then enough for my first session. Also, how much vaseline do you guys use in your tube exactly? Do you guys cake it on, all over the penis and inside the tube?

Thanks all, This is a great pumpers section at Thunder’s:)

Dam i couldn’t edit the thread title, oh well.

One more question too guys, how about cleaning these tubes? I read in a thread, not to use Petroleum based lubes if your pump has a rubber or latex seal at the bottom? I use vaseline with my LA pump tube, is that ok? I see a little O ring in the bottom of the tube, is this a rubber seal?

What type of pipe cleaner should i buy? what type of cleaner should i use? What type of lube should i use?

Thanks again

I apply heat before(heating pad) and while(heater), not after..

I coat the brim of the tube with vaseline for suction, and I use different lube for exercises.
I don’t put any in the tube

EDIT I use soap, water, and a paper towel to wash it off. My pump(LA) doesn’t have a rubber seal.

I use KY for everything, but will probably switch to vaseline on the rim for longevity.

What do you want changed about the title?

Hot tap water cleans just fine in my experience.

On the barrel of the pump, on the opposite side of the gauge is a small pin head size button that is the pressure release valve. Press this button when removing the tube and it will slide right off.

Hot wrap before entering the tube will aid greatly in your in tube expansion. If you invest in an electric heat pad, you can then wrap the tube with it while pumping for even greater effect.

You will get used to the markings on the gauge. A good starting place for you is 4, which corresponds to 100 mm hg on the dial.

I think Vaseline is very messy and difficult to clean up. At least try KY Jelly once to see if you find it better and easier to use. Just keep a bowl of warm water handy to dip your fingers tips into when you need to refresh the KY. I apply the KY to the first 1 inch inside the tube, the flange of the tube and all over my cock. A little extra water splash on your cock just before entering the tube will make you really slick and eliminate getting stuck inside the tube while expanding and make removal smooth, especially when you push that pressure release button!

Great thread. I might try pumping in the future, valuable information, Thanks Guys.

My cylinder is all acrylic. The vacuum tube attaches at the closed end with a plastic quick-release fitting that has a black rubber o-ring as a gasket. The tube and fitting are screwed into the acrylic cylinder and are easy to remove. That leaves only the all acrylic cylinder which I take to the kitchen sink and flush with hot water. I have one of those soft bristle bottle brushes that I can use if some of the lube has dried deep inside. A drop of dishwashing detergent won’t hurt anything, but don’t go overboard because that stuff creates lots of foam/bubbles.

I can’t see any use for a pipe cleaner.

There are new silicone based lubes that don’t harm rubber like petroleum based ones (Vaseline) and don’t dry out like water based ones (KY). You might want to try one of them.

Your LA pump dosen’t have a rubber seal inside the tube at the top??? Mine does for sure, just alittle black one that I can see. I wonder if it is the rubber seal you guys say i can’t use with petroleum base lubes?

Hehe, yeah, I did push the button to release the vacum, I’m not a totally idiot… but then again, some people can be pretty dumb sometimes. It just expanded alot at the base and packed the first 3 inches. I think the base is what got stuck alittle. I’m going to apply more lube on my cock next time.

ICM,

I just wanted to edit the capital I’s.

If you have trouble getting yourself out of the tube after a pump, just tilt the tube to the left or the right. The seal at the bottom will be compromised and air will enter the tube, allowing you out.

I use a drop or two of liquid Dawn, what we use on dishes, to clean the tube. It dissolves the vaseline on the bottom flange very quickly as well as any accumulated lubricant on the inside walls. Takes just a minute or two.
