Monkeybar's or Max-vac

I'm coming back from a month and a half break. I really think that hanging is for me and am interested in starting. I made a wench but it pulls my head too hard. So I figured I would get a vacuum hanger. The question is this should I get monkeybars' vacu-hanger or the max-vac.

I'm in college so money is an issue. I'm kinda leaning towards the max-vac. The vacu-hanger cost $90 but looks really crude. I mean I know its a simple design but $90!!! While the max-vac is $116 I think it has a larger following plus if I did want to do the pump method I could buy a hand pump for $20 and it looks more friendly to dicks.

Things I would like to know to compare are users experience, preferences; the subject of blisters and preventing them; comfort level; how discretely they can be used as [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words]; and anything else you guys think is worth knowing.

thnx
 
Get a TheGRIP Economy Package. I have had no blistering problems with it at all. Any fluid buildup that you get goes away within five minutes. It can hold any amount of weight you want. For heavier weights use black electrical tape to hold the sheaths. It's a perfect system in my eyes because one part is the hanger, and the other part is the [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words]. Once again, all of this uses vacuum so it is very comfortable. They have also been in business for 10 years I think and have had great customer support when I called them with any problems. They even told me a few tips and tricks to save more money rather than blowing it on more sheaths/their own tools/whatever.

For $179.95 you get a quality hanger and [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words]. I think you really do need an [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words] to see and keep gains(especially flaccid).

Message me if you really want to get this as I might have found a little hack that can save you 25%($134.96). I would have tried it back during when I bought it but I just found it this past week. You don't need a pump for this either, they send a nice bulb cheapo one that works just as good.

If you have some reason for not going with TheGRIP, from what I have seen and heard, I'd get a MaxVac, compared with Monkeybar's hanger.

If you do go with TheGRIP get their Economy Package, as all the other packages are just a rip off, you can save a ton of money by buying weights, using the string they send you as a waist-strap [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words], etc.
 
Also, you don't need any lube with TheGRIP. And while I haven't fully tested this out, I don't think you'd really need any new sheaths if you were to wrap the shaft with black electrical tape before hanging. Although I just started doing this today, we'll see how it goes!

All in all, get a vacuum device over a vice or noose style any day!

$116.00 for the MV. The grip(R). is O.K, but not as comfortable and stable.

Was TheGRIP that thing your friend was wearing after your surgery? Just wondered as I have only heard of TheGRIP, yours, and monkeybar's as being the only vacuum hangers, are there any others?

The biggest problem with me for the MaxVac is that I wanted an [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words]. I seriously considered both TheGRIP and the MaxVac. If the MaxVac had a real [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words] option then it'd be a whole lot more convincing.

TheGRIP was such a godsend after trying vice hangers. OUCH! But it does look like the MaxVac uses more pressure than TheGRIP, due to the larger chamber. How long do the sheaths last for the MaxVac? I've wondered if someone could convert a smaller diameter pump into a MaxVac-style hanger using their own custom sheaths.

There was some guy at Thunder's Place posting his homeade vacuum hanger that only cost him $35. It uses Chinese acupuncture vacuum tubes. It's a really nice design. He used a latex glove as the sheath. That might be another alternative for those who can't spend more than $50 on devices. Although, it can't hold nearly as much weight as TheGRIP or the MaxVac. It also isn't a viable [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words] option.

BTC, have you ever used TheGRIP and what problems did you have with it?

I wonder if TheGRIP guys are lurkers on the Penis Enlargement scene.

Is there a difference in the learning curve between TheGRIP and the MaxVac?

I mean, when I got my TheGRIP in the mail I could immediately hang 45 minutes with 5 pounds without any discomfort or fluid buildup. I thought that since I had been vacuum pumping for about 8 months my penis was pretty used to the vacuum. But on the MaxVac site a lot of people have problems with hanging 5-10 lbs right away like I was able to. Also it seems fluid buildup lasts a lot longer with the MaxVac as the MaxVac relies on the head expansion to hang, whereas with TheGRIP it's more of tieing down the sheaths without doing it too tight/taping the sheaths together. Don't get me wrong, there is certainly a bit of vacuum being used(my pump is broken so I can't monitor how many pounds of pressure I am using) but the fluid build-up seems to be controlled by the sheaths keeping the head "intact", and the fluid buildup that I get is gone within 5 minutes of taking the sheaths off and it's very little.

I wouldn't find the MaxVac useful for an [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words] as I'd need to wrap it around my waist because I am stretching my tunica rather than the ligs, and the waist is the best place I can [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words] at, and it's too bulky to wear under clothing.

Again I can't claim any of the things about MaxVac from personal experience because I have never used one.

A big advantage that MaxVac users have is a big community forum. TheGRIP users don't have a big support group for help or questions. If TheGRIP did have forums I'm sure it'd be a lot more successful for both them and their users. They need to update their site too, all of those products are outdated and their new ones look cooler in my opinion. I have wondered many a day why TheGRIP hadn't caught on in the Penis Enlargement community sooner. I mean, vac hangers only recently got popular this past year or so. They have been around forever but even on old Penis Enlargement sites like peforums and T's place there were very few posts about TheGRIP and vacuum hanging in general. I mean, imagine how many more men would have hung and developed better vacuum hangers if people weren't so obsessed with that painful Bib Hanger(and other variants, compared to vacuum) then the Penis Enlargement community would be a lot more advanced in my opinion, with multiple gains to show, too.

Thanks 10inch and btc. Btc is the max-vac doing anything to stop blisters. I can understand a little fluid build-up but definitely not blisters on my dick. Well I'll post back latter I gotta run.
 
I'd go with the MV. Superior design of the Three above choices. Replacement parts are cheaper...including sleeves. Best customer support...it's literally a toll free call away...AND you can speak to the guy who makes them...not some kid in a cubicle reading off a list of "FAQs" on a screen. It CAN be worn for [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words]. Check the Max Vac forum over on mynewsize.com/forum You can also use much more weight than the other above hanging systems without needed to use "tape" or some other gimmick.
 
The reason why you don't have to use tape with the MaxVac is the same reason why there are users getting blisters with it. It's two different types of methods. The MaxVac works by using vacuum to pull the head in and expanding it to hold while you hang, while TheGRIP works by keeping [words=https://shop.mattersofsize.com/products/sizegenetics-penis-extender]traction[/words] on the the hour-glass and g-flex sleeves. And it's not like taping is a problem, I reuse the same 2 foot length of electrical tape to comfortably wrap, takes about 20 seconds to put on, and there is no slippage whatsoever. After about 10 pounds you should use electrical tape if you are hanging with TheGRIP.

How would you use the MaxVac as an [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words] if you were hanging for tunica gains?
 
The grip, the MV, and the Vacu-hanger all have the potential to cause blisters. It's simple, pressure, expansion can lead to blisters. Can I hang 30 pounds with the mv, can I wear it to sleep, can I wear it for hours at a time. Yes, but it takes consistancy and practice like any other form of Penis Enlargement.

This gives me a cool idea. I wonder if someone could use one of those machine-pumps to control the vacuum in a vacuum hanger. Like if it got too low it'd up it, and if something happened and the pressure became too much it'd lower it back to whatever the user set it at. That'd probably prevent most injuries.
 
wow tomdw .5 inch gain in three months that is impressive. Also when will you be hosting another championship. That sounds so cool. I can't wait to see the results. I'm sorry I missed the chance to enter.

Okay so all these devices have the potential to cause blisters you just have to be conditioned is that correct? Well how long does it take to become conditioned. I don't expect to be hanging 30 lbs anytime soon but how long till I will be able to hang 10 lbs with the mv. Does anyone have any comments on monkeybar's hanger? If so I guess its out of my mind. it is a pretty simple design I would buy it if it was at max $50 but not for $90.

Can any of you mv supporters answer 10inch's question on how to use the mv as an [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words] for tunica gains. 10inchadvantage, how have your gains been using the grip. I've never even heard of it but it looks pretty cool. How much can the grip hang. The mv can be used with or without a pump so it can obviously hang more right? But poundage is not something I'm worried about right now. I think 10-15 would be more than enough for gains.

Something else I've been wondering about. Does hanging have an effect on erections. When I first started Penis Enlargement a couple of years ago I remember reading that hanging decreased the strength of erections. It has only been recently that I have considered hanging. I can definitely see why a noose method of hanging would decrease erections. but what about vacuum hangers?

thanks Btc. My debit card came in today. I've decided to go with the max-vac. It is cheaper than the grip. More professional than the vacu-hanger and has a huge forum following. I just want to say a thank you to btc, 10inch, and tomwd. I can't wait to get it and try it out. If anyone has any must reads before use I would appreciate a post.
 
It's impossible to use the MaxVac as a tunica [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words] UNDER clothes. A chamber is just too big to be wearing around over your waist, same with TheGRIP's chamber, which is why they made a weight-attachment sleeve. Well, in a session I can go from about 8 bpfsl to 8.75 bpfsl from hanging with TheGRIP, over a few hours, but it's not TheGRIP that makes the gains, as vacuum hanging IS vacuum hanging, just there are different products. I saw a lot of posts on people getting mad fluid buildup so that was a main reason I went with TheGRIP as I don't get donuts or anything like that from it, even though I'll hang 3x more than a lot of MaxVac guys who have been using it for a few months.

You can hang, potentially, as much weight as you want with TheGRIP, but I'm not sure how I'm going to fair at 20+ pounds. I have started wrapping around the sheaths on the chamber with electrical tape to keep a really good hold, because the strap they give you only helps for up to about 10 pounds, then it starts to be a problem with slippage. I'll definitely keep you guys updated with my hanging routine with TheGRIP. Blackice and I seem to be the only two posters on here who use TheGRIP, so TheGRIP really isn't well known.

You made a good choice going with the MV. Just make sure you take it slow and steady as BTC says that is how it is supposed to be used. Follow his directions for use and everything should be fine. Hanging 10 lbs OTS with the MaxVac is going to be the same as hanging 10 lbs OTS with TheGRIP. The gains are going to be the same for the same person. Although I never regret wearing the [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words] 8+ hours a day.

I'm not sure if you have to have been a customer though. Chambers just aren't meant to be used for ADSing. Please keep us updated with your progress.

Also, BTC and anyone else, you are welcome to put any tricks for your products or other products you are using to help people get the most out of them. I want that thread to be chock full of great information! It'd help out the community a whole lot, thanks guys!

I don't think you "get" the MV.

I think it's a matter of you not understanding where the actual pull is coming from. It's hard to determine the "pull" factor from pictures. It's more of a feel thing.
