hey guys... had my Bathmate for awhile but haven't been using it.

this week was my first week back and while the pressure is still good... i notice it's leaking small bubbles at the black rubber ring from the inside of the tip

what can i do to stop this leak? i feel that it slowly decreases the pressure, i can definitely feel it >:(

please help
 
If the Bathmate is leaking anywhere besides around the base then that is a product defect. Contact Bathmate and they will probably give you a new one. If you're experiencing leaking around the base try trimming more, using vaseline, or reposition the Bathmate higher or lower.
 
If you are talking about a leak at the top of the release valve, then you can take the tip apart and repositions the parts. I guess this happens sometimes during shipping, and is an easy fix. There was a YouTube video showing you how to take apart and clean, but I can’t seem to find it.
 
the leak is coming from the little black rubber ring that's on the inside... its located under the release button ... it's not accessible even if you remove the cap

is this really a product deflect and no way to fix it? :(

edit: it's not leaking any water but air is coming inside while i'm pumping !

Really? I thought you can get that ring out. When you take the cap off how may pieces are you able to take out?
 
If it is defective send Bathmate a email and ask for a replacement.
 
It happens to me sometimes too I usually have to lay flat in the tub or enter tha Bathmate erect or semi erect to get a good suction
 
For leaking at the valve area you can try:
1. Hard blowing with your mouth inside.
2. Put it on a stable table and pump down with force.
3. Open the release valve (flip it open with a "minus" screw driver) clean things and reassemble.

Tell us if it worked...

when i take off the cap... there is a small sponge, a rubber pin thing and a foam ring that attaches to that... so 3 pieces (not including the cap itself)

but i'm talking about the rubber ring thats on the inside.... you can see it when you press on the release button

I have no problem with getting suction.... only problem is small air bubbles are slowly leaking into the tube thru that rubber ring... i can literally see it

This sucks guys ... i believe the little rubber ring inside my valve is ruptured or something... air is coming in from the same spot every time

i tried everything suggested and air still find it's way in from the same exact spot

the more pressure there is, the more air comes in

FUCKK!!!!!
 
Well guys... after spending about 2 hours in the bathroom! i've noticed that sometime it can leak and sometime it's sealed tight... obviously there is some alignment problems but the plastic and the rubber ring... but at least i was able to get a good session without any leaks! I guess i will have to work with this problem.

So once i get it on and there is no leak, i'm not taking it off until 20 mins is over .... it's like trial and error =\ oh wells.. at least it still works

Why not just contact Bathmate and get a replacement?

I am sure they will make you happy.
 
I found a solution to my problem ... HOT WATER!

I filled my Bathmate with steaming hot water for about 2 mins before i start my session. This seems to fix the problem. My theory is that the hot water makes the rubber ring more elastic and soft, therefore making it a better seal

thanks for all the help bros

Hi guys, I just purchased a hydro max x40. I filled it with water, positioned and got a seal but when I press it against my pelvic, no water comes out the top by the pip. Is there something I’m doing wrong or is it defective?

Check the valve at the of the pump. There is a black plastic like a switch on top of the pump. Push that black plastic that looks like a switch to the middle. You can use that plastic to block and release water from the valve. Move it to the middle, that should get it to work.
