First impressions of the Phallosan

I just got my Phallosan in the mail yesterday. (which wasn't easy... I live in the U.S. and I had to find a shady distributor to even get one)

I'm wearing it for the second time today. I'm already fairly certain that I'll never use my extender again. It's that good. And I should know, I've logged almost 200 hours on the FastSize extender.

Phallosan Pros:
* I can comfortably wear it while doing just about any activity. I imagine that would include working out, but I doubt it would stay on.

* I can wear it discreetly in public, including at work. No one would ever notice unless you wear really tight and/or flimsy fabrics.

* I get just as good of a stretch WITH LESS DISCOMFORT. I cannot emphasize this one enough.

* I'm fairly certain I could wear it while sleeping. I'm going to work my way up to that.

Phallosan Cons:
* Sometimes you lose suction without warning, so you have to bring the little pump with you. It easily fits in your pocket, but it might be hard to explain if it ever fell out.

* You have to re-attach every time you go to the bathroom. This is also true of the extender, but it's a lot more time-consuming to re-attach the Phallosan.

* It's hard to accurately control the amount of stretch. With the extender, I can control the stretch down to 1/16th of an inch. With the Phallosan, I'm just eyeballing it.

* Fitting: The medium setting is a very snug fit, and the large setting is a bit too loose for me. Depending on your size, I can imagine the device being problematic. The bottom line is, like any condom, forgot your pride, and go with the smaller setting if it doesn't stay on...

Bottom line: I could only wear the extender for a couple of hours each day. I'm pretty confident I can wear this all day.

Why couldn't I wear the extender all day?
* I couldn't wear it in public.
* I had to be careful about how I moved... even sitting down was uncomfortable.
* I had to wear super loose fitting clothing.
* The head started to hurt from the friction and tightness of the noose after a couple of hours. (Despite inventing a very effective method of reducing that friction)

Now, an extender functions by cell division mostly. (Unless you crank it up, you don't get a good ligament stretch)

I can only wear the extender 2-4 hours/day tops. (that's all the private time I get, and often I get less)

I can probably wear the phallosan 12 or more hours/day.

That means I can log 3-6 times as many hours. I'll be at 1000 hours in 4 months instead of 16 months. Let that sink in, because for me, that's all the difference in the world.

Some info on me. If you haven't been following my updates, so far I've gained 1/4" from manual stretching, and 1/4" from the extender. I'll post again in a couple of weeks with an update on how things are going with the Phallosan.

Good post. This looks interesting; I also use an ADS and completely agree with the discomfort and lack of logging long wear times. I would be interested to try this when they start shipping to the USA. Perhaps a MOS discount is in are future

I'm also interested on how Tom is making out with the device I read a handful of reviews, and they are mixed to say the least. Its hard to weed out the reviewers that have something to gain, but not one had it in their top #3 ADS. I did send an email to there support to ask when it will be shipping to the US, their reply is below.


Thank you for your email and we are pleased that you are interested in our product.



We have suBathmateitted the information to the FDA department early this month and however we are not able to confirm the exact date of when we will receive the certificate because this depends on the various procedures that our product have to go thru and we were only given an indication of 60 days.



However rest assured that as soon as we receive the FDA certificate we will inform you.



I hope that I have answered your query, however please feel free to contact us anytime if the need arises.

Best Regards

I followed the instructions, 1hr the first day, 2hrs the second, 3hrs the third day... no problems. Well, none except the medium bellcap was too small.

The head didn't fit inside the cap, and there were compression marks on the head where the edge of the cap pressed into it. There was also a little soreness. Nothing I would worry about, but still, I decided to try the medium/large combo I'd seen recommended. (large/large didn't work for me because air would seep in along the shaft)

So, I pulled off the medium condom and put it on the large cap. Was fairly easy, scotch tape worked well enough to keep a tight seal.

On day 4, I wore it for 4hrs. No problems, MUCH more comfortable, and easy to get enough tension to rival an extender, although the head was a little swollen afterwards. Not enough to worry me though. For comparison, the amount of head swelling I get all day from jelqing was comparable.

On day 5, I forgot I had it on (!) and ended up wearing it for 6 hours instead of 5. Same result, a little swollen, nothing that worried me. The head slides comfortably into the cap, great tension, all good...

On day 6, I stopped after 5hr30min. The head was starting to tingle, and when I took it off to pee and massage/rest it, I noticed it was a little more swollen than I would like. I decided to stop for the rest of the day.

On day 7, things didn't go so well. When I took it off for my second pee break after 4 hrs, the head was a LOT swollen, and discolored. Now, the manual specifically says that this results from too much tension.

However, when I pulled off the silicone gel head protector, it also was stretched. In fact, it now had the shape of a swollen head tapering to a shaft, instead of being bullet shaped.

My initial theory is this: The head protector is designed to reduce vacuum pressure on the head. It was slowly deforming under the pressure, until it gave out.

The frustrating part is that it didn't really feel like I was using too much tension. There's certainly a correlation between tension and the amount of vacuum pressure on the head. Unfortunately, unlike the extender, I can't measure the tension... so maybe I was using more tension than I should have?

I'm at the end of a 3-day break from the phallosan. I'm going to go back to light tension, and see if I still have swelling problems.

If I do, I'm going to switch back to the medium-medium cap, and see if I can't find a way to stuff the head into the cap. The main reason I can't get the head into the medium cap is friction from the head protector, not necessarily because there isn't enough volume for my head to fit.

So, I'll try that. I'm also going to order like 10 replacement head protectors, because on a very very positive note, I've discovered two cool things.

#1: If you put on the head protector from the phallosan, and then use a noose extender, NO DISCOMFORT. I wore it for 3hrs Friday, 4hrs Sat, and 4hrs Sunday. No discomfort at all. Also, no slippage over time!

As an experiment, I was able to crank up the extender an additional 3/8" with no skin discomfort. I only stopped because the internal stretch was getting too intense. Now THAT is what I'm talking about.

That gave me another idea:

#2: I also experimented with using the phallosan for assisted manual stretches. GOLDEN. Screw the belt, just leave the pump on the end, and stretch by pulling on the cap. Insane stretch, way more than I ever got with manual stretching, with no discomfort or slipping. Those who have followed my posts from earlier this year may recall that I gave up manual stretching for the extender because I got so much skin discomfort. Well, this is the answer.

So, all in all, the jury is still out on the phallosan for me. Maybe I'm just being too agressive with the tension? I'll give it a shot using reduced tension. However, I'm starting to think that the phallosan still suffers from some basic material construction issues... ie it's just not well engineered enough. That's not to say it's not a great invention. Mad props to those guys for coming up with it, but I think there is still room for improvement.

I'll do another update next weekend after I experiment with reduced tension.

However, even if worst comes to worst and I don't use the phallosan as intended, I'll definitely be using it for assisted manual stretching and I'll be using the head protector for my extender.

PS Other things I discovered this weekend: I measured the spring strength on my extender by pressing it into a scale and letting up on the pressure until each of the 3 etch marks was exposed.

Etch mark 1 (Full compression) was > 7 lbs. (my precise scale only goes that high)
Etch mark 2 was around 5 lbs.
Etch mark 3 (no compression) was around 3-3.5lbs.

However, my spring is not perfect aligned, so it takes higher pressure (5-6 lbs) to get the spring to start compressing. This means that I'm stretching at around 5-6 lbs all the time with my extender.

I decided to compare that to my phallosan by hanging weights from the phallosan vacuum tube. I was easily able to get 6 lbs on the phallosan without any discomfort, which tells me that in theory, the phallosan could provide sufficient tension as an all-day stretcher.

However, the head did start to swell. So that's still the crux of the issue.

So, I have a question to all you vets out there: Is 3lbs enough tension for an all-day stretcher? Is 5lbs too MUCH tension for an all-day stretcher? Scanning the hanging forum, I see that they recommend starting with 30-60 minutes a day of 5lbs or less, so that does seem rather aggressive for an all-day stretcher.

Great posts!

Have you measured your flaccid stretch with both? I think your weight tests are much more technical, but just wondering if you see the same stretch by measurement between the two.

I to gave up on manual stretching until I found this stretcher you are supposed to use with your feet, I never used it as intended, just clamp it on and use that to stretch. It’s really been the difference in my workouts, I think what you discovered here will also be a great benefit to your workouts as well.

I think when they start shipping to the US I will grab some of the head protectors and try those with my FastSize.

Thanks for all the info, great stuff!

I am glad I checked this thread to remind me. They sent me a sample and I sent them an email asking what kind of discount they could offer but I did not hear back. I will try to contact them tomorrow.
