Hi guys,
Has anyone tried a MaleMax Vac-U-Max Penis Stretcher?
Does it stay on ok?
Is it comfortable?
Can it take enough tension/weight to do an effective stretch?
Anything else you can say about it? I'm thinking of trying one but I don't want to waste my money and time.
 
This concept has been around before. I'm not a fan tying something to your leg because the tension varies too greatly from none to too much. Also it's not as concealable as they say: it's very obvious in anything less than super-baggy pants.

I know what you mean about tension varying as you move about, but I was thinking of wearing it while reading or watching tv, etc. Have you tried one of these? Do they stay on?
 
Thanks for the input guys. I'm not worried about the thing showing under my clothing - I work from home and have plenty of time when no one will see me. So I just paid for one of these on e-Bay. I'll post again on this thread and let you all know how I get on with it.
 
If you work form home don't waste your time or money on a leg-strap device. You're in a position to get real gains don't waste it.
 
Are you saying I should be forgetting about any kind of hands free stretching or hanging devices, and instead only do manual stretches and jelqs? I'd appreciate anything positive you have to input.
 
I'm not saying to forget devices but a leg strap is a well-known waste of time. Many guys adopt them only to find they are a Penis Enlargement placebo. They make you feel like you're doing something positive but end up doing nothing. Autoextender (monkeybar) introduced a leg strap POS over at �other forum�. They trialed it and nobody gained. Of course monkeybar claimed it worked (what's new). If this guy successfully tested all his shit his dick would be a mile long by now but that's another story (he's a fraud).

I have read numerous reports by credible guys who used leg straps only to find they are worthless and possibly detrimental (the cycling of tension may even cause toughening of the connective tissue). If these things worked we'd all be using them. They've been around since day 1.

You want consistency in Penis Enlargement: consistency in your tension and consistency in your dedication. And of course always incorporate the jelq.
 
Thanks for coming back to me on this MoreGains123. You make some interesting points. I'm not thinking of using an ADS instead of a solid regimen of stretches, jelqs etc. but as well as. I hadn't been thinking of using an ADS but there are a lot of highly respected gainers around here who advocate the use of an ADS so I thought I'd have nothing to lose by adding it to my regimen. But what you say about the cycling of tension possibly toughening the connective tissue is very interesting. So are you saying you think ADS might be counter productive however you use them?
 
Im also interested in this. Does what you say about ADS's being possibly detrimental apply to all ADS's or just leg strap devices?
 
I am refering to leg straps specifically. As you move around the tension changes. In some positions it's near zero and in others it's at the max.If you read about growing tissue this is a great way to grow skin but not much else.

It's also a great way to toughen ligs and tendons. I'm figuring this could also apply to the septum of the penis. This tissue is tough enough as it is!

There's nothing wrong with ADS's or their concept. I use one. You just want to be sure it's delivering consistent tension.
 
I see. So a mechanical stretcher/extender (ie. JEZ) is good, and hanging weights also gives you a steady stretch. But the penis stretcher attached by a length of elastic to a leg strap or chest harness can only give a steady pull if you wear it while you sit or lie still. I guess there's also the problem of not knowing how much tension you have each time you fit an elastic stretcher.
 
The Vac-U-Max turned up okay (it was posted from the USA to me in the UK). The Customs declaration on the padded envelope had 'child's toy' written in the Item Description line, which amused me and my wife. In the packet was an instruction sheet, a soft silicone penis gripper (kind of like a short thick condom) with a snap hook/fastener on it's tip. There's also a black elastic adjustable leg strap and a lighter adjustable elastic to go between the penis gripper and the leg strap. To put the thing on you have to roll up the penis gripper (just like a regular condom is rolled up in the packet). This is aided by ribs inside the gripper which help it to stay rolled back. You place the tip of your glans in the gripper and then roll it on, where it grips the glans and part of the shaft. Then you fit and adjust the strap and that's it.

The instructions say to wear it for only short (45 minute) periods to start with. Before it arrived I was a bit skeptical about it's ability to stay on, but it's very secure. If anything, I wonder if it possibly has too tight a grip for me, as I have found that after wearing it for a couple of hours at at time, my glans has a couple of slightly pale patches which feel a little numb, making me think circulation had been restricted. It could be that I wore it for a bit too long too soon (I've only had the thing two days), so I'm taking it a bit easier until my cock gets used to it.

All in all, I think it has the potential to be a good stretching device, but I won't be certain of that until I am able to wear the thing for longer periods. My reservation at the moment is based upon my worries that it might be too tight for me. I'll keep trying with the thing for a week or two, and I'll post an update here.

The silicone is very soft and pliable, but I reckon that guy's with larger than average glans might have difficulty with this. I'm combining this with my usual pe routine, so my glans is temporarily enlarged due to jelking each morning. It's possible that the gripper would fit me fine if I wasn't doing the other pe. I'm thinking that if I continue to have problems with tightness, I'll ask the supplier if the makers have plans for grippers in other sizes.
 
I made one of these last year with high hopes that I would have a comfortable ADS that I could wear all day. I read about the possibility of tissue toughening and that scared me out of using as an ADS. It is comfortable enough (and safe enough) to wear at night, but the tension is far too light to be more than an anti-turtle device. I do wear it as an ANS device sometimes, since the tension will be constant for the most part while laying down, but I'm convinced now that I don't turtle at night anyway (with nocturnal erections/night wood).
I think the silicone has great potential when used in some sort of Penis Enlargement device, but I haven't quite figured out what it is. Several devices use it (Static Stretcher, AutoExtender, vacuum hangers, etc.) but I think there is going to be something really effective that uses silicone in some way. That is not to say that some of the devices are not good, I use the Static Stretcher and think many guys have had great success with it, but I think the potential of silicone has not been fully utilized yet.

Riven,

Please update us on how this MaleMax stretching device is working out. The seller on eBay has a 3600+ rating which shows that he has sold this device quite well--but, guys leave positive feedback immediately when it arrives so they're fully excited about the receiving the product, not really about its effectiveness after weeks and months.

So how is it working out for you? It is definitely too early to tell, but can you FEEL potential in it? Is it durable and can you put significant tension to it? I emailed the seller and he mentioned the tension is roughly 2-4lbs, which is pretty light. Please update which comfortability, routine, potential, and importantly, "side effects".

I believe blisters are a huge problem with these devices and I already had one from vacuum hanging (scared me shitless) so that's a huge turn off. Please keep me/us posted! Hope it works out for you! :)

It's cool and funny your wife is in on the fun.
 
I've had the Vac-U-Max for about a fortnight. Wearing it is easier than anticipated. I haven't experienced blisters (mentioned by the poster above) but I can see how that could be a problem. I think it is necessary to follow the instructions and use the device only for short periods for the firsat week of so. I have experienced a couple of problems though: The silicone penis gripper was beginning to split at the rim. I e-mailed the seller who replied promptly. He said that you have to be careful not to start a split with your fingernails (when you roll up the silicone tube) but promised to send a replacement anyway. I'm taking on board the tip about being careful re. sharp fingernails. The other problem with the device is that the adjuster on the elastic tension strap (not the leg strap - that's fine) slips which means that it cannot retain the tension you want. The only solution to this problem is to knot the elastic, or to come up with some other means of preventing slippage.

It is too early to know if the light tension from this device can help you to make gains, but I'm inclined to feel that it's worth working with. I do other kinds of pe as well so it won't really be possible for me to fully evaluate the device. The only way to seriously evaluate it would be to hear from guys who use this as their only method of pe.
 
Riven,
Please keep us posted on your progress and the product. I am just curious how good this product is considering the seller on eBay has sold thousands. Would be such a downer that they've all been duped.
