Let me preface this with a few notes: I do not have a degree in any of the following: Physics, Chemistry, Biology or Ball Zinging. Everything that you're about to read is a result of what little knowledge I do have of the above subjects. Mostly I want to make a note that I don't want to start a flame fest, but I doubt I can stop it, so on with the show:
Many of the effects of the RoP are due to Zinc ions passing through the scrotum and being absorbed by the testicles:
Some background real quick: An ion is a particle, atom or molecule with a negative or positive charge, which is to say too many or two few electrons. A Zinc ion therefore would be a Zinc atom with too many or two few electrons. To say that a Zinc ion is passing through your body is the same as saying that a Zinc atom is passing through your body, which is incorrect. If the Zinc were passing through your body by means of electrical conduction that would mean that one of two things would happen: First: You would wear the RoP for an extended period of time, several years, I would suspect, and the Zinc would eventually be completly absorbed by the human body. Second: Over time Zinc atoms would pass completly through your body, as would the copper in an effort to balance the charge, and eventually either you would have two bars that were both one half copper and one half zinc, or the copper and zinc would completly trade places. Zinc atoms do not move through your body or into your testicals as a result of wearing the RoP. If any Zinc is uptaken it is by means of very slow absorption, slow enough that it would genuinly have no effect on the testicals.
The RoP increases flacid hang:
This has been pretty well substantiated by most people who wear or wore the RoP. This is more than likley the result of a slight reduction in the speed of unoxygenated blood leaving the penis. Essentially it acts as a very low grade cockring.
The RoP increases ejaculate volume:
More than likley, yes, the RoP does increase ejaculate volume. However, to make the claim that Supra and some other have of doubling the amount of cum is incredibly unlikley. Ten percent of ejaculate is actual Sperm, the other ninty percent is a mixture of protiens, enzymes, vitamins and so forth which is produced in the Cowpers gland. Now simply due to the structure of the RoP and the fact that it can only directly effect the external genitals (The penis and testicals) the RoP can't alter the production of the Cowpers gland (It has no contact), as such increase in ejaculate must be a result of increased Sperm production. Going with the above figures, if the average man 'shoots' five times, one half of one shot would be the actual Sperm. What this means is that to double that mans ejaculate he would have to add on five 'shots', or essentially increase his Sperm production ten fold. While this doesn't sound terribly outlandish, you also have to keep in mind that the testicals not only produce, but store the Sperm: The implication of this being that to increase Sperm production and see a result from it, there has to be ten times the storage space, meaning that your testicals would have to increase in size ten fold. To the best of my knowledge this claim of increased testical size (To this degree) has never been made by anyone who used or uses the RoP. So any increase in ejaculate volume would be extraordinarily small, and rather unnoticable.
The RoP increases testosterone level:
I think this one is true. We'll go back a step or two to what's actually happening between you and the RoP. We've established that Zinc atoms are not passing through your body. What is actually passing through your body is electrons. The short explanation is as follows: Zinc has a different charge than Copper, in an effort to balance out these different charges the electrons from one pass to the other. This creates current; the same current that passes through a battery. Now it would seem to me that the human body could very easly misinturpret this current as the natural, biological signals sent to the testicals to trigger Test production. Meaning that as far as your testicals are aware the brain is always telling them to produce more and more Testosterone. The result? People doubling or tripeling their test production in a matter of months.
Why doesn't this occur in everyone though?
That I don't have the answer for. There are a lot of variables and the RoP is by no means standard: Some people have longer bars, some people have less latex, some people clean the zinc and copper, some people moisturize, and most importantly, some people use saline and some people don't. Not only that, but everyone's biology is different: There is the genuine possibility that you are producing as much testosterone as your body is capable of. It's sad, but true.
The RoP doesn't need saline to function:
False. I understand the logic that the sweat produced in the course of the day is supposed to act as the conductor for the current, but think about it: How many of you walk around with enough sweat in your crotch to feel a tingle from a 9V battery? Not many. As far as I can tell the saline is absolutley necessary. Think of it like this: The RoP is a battery. You put the battery into a FleshLight and turn the FleshLight on. The workings of the light complete the current. Your body is the FleshLight in this senerio. Now think about it like this: You take a battery that has no alkeline or lithium in it and put it into the FleshLight. You push the button on the FleshLight, does it turn on? No, of course it doesn't. That conductor is necessary to complete the circuit. (For those of you who don't believe me: Think back to Supra's original post. If you recall he got something like 1.1v through the RoP with no Saline and 1.2v with Saline. Now if all the current were passing through the saline then the voltometer would've read 0.0v, because none of the current was flowing through it.)
So, my conclusions: Does the RoP work? Yes. Does it do everything it says it does? With the exception of increasing ejaculate volume, yes, I think so. Should you keep taking your Zinc supplement? Yes, you should. Am I wearing my RoP right now? Yes, I am.
