Greetings

My goodness. A 2.5in tube and you're going for broke for larger girth. Truly a chase after the python results.

As we indicated, the SiliCap is designed for that purpose of protecting the glans from blistering due to pressure differential. However, you discovered the hidden bonus where the pressure differential trapped by the SiliCap also influences the glans isolated expansion. Think of the SiliCap as a penis ring around the entire glans, causing a mushroom expansion phenomenon. I grew out of mine, and I use the cut off penis sleeve to strap around the base of my glans in the Bathmate to further create that phenomenon. Good job on discovering the hidden easter egg of the SiliCap.
 
I bought a 2.25 and 2.5 diameter tube. Hopefully with a wider tube, I'll expand more girthwise than length.

I pumped earlier today but used the silicap2 with no pump sleeve. Silicap2 was a pain to get on. But pumping with the silicap2 on was a different experience. I actually got a bit more head expansion somehow. Expansion overall was very even. I might use that from now on.
It sounds like you found a great solution to doing your work.I would stick with it and see where it brings you
 
Mixed results today..

First session had EQ issues. Tried to get through the SSJ anyway and through pumping though I was going in with only like 30-40% erection. Just ended up frustrated. I learned that I need to avoid doing any stretching immediately prior and just do a quick warmup. However, I can do stretching earlier. I did go through 3 pump intervals but they were poor. Oh, noting that I went a bit crazy and tried using a roller on my shaft against table lol. All I got was little red dots for my trouble.

Hours later I decided to try again but in the shower. I first tried using the water pump and it did not work for me. I must have missed something in directions so will look into that. So I decided to just do dry pumping. EQ was substantially better and I was able to get the silicap2 on and fully elongated. I went into pump with probably 80% erection. Still, issue with tube being too small. Tried to use coconut oil to help. Issue I had is that I was packing the bottom couple inches immediately and was sticking to the sides. I was watching some lovely ladies (lol) while pumping so was at 100% erection. Doing a lot of kegels, shaking the tube, and pressing against me to move further down tube. Then restoring to 5Hg. I never went above 5Hg. Just kept repeating all that and restoring the 5Hg as pressure dropped. In the last few minutes, I also did some pulling away from me against vacuum then follow by kegel and push against me again.

When I released pressure and pulled tube off, I found that my silicap2 had split up about 3 inches. Well, that's annoying. I noticed a tiny nick in it other day which seemed to keep growing. Had less than a week..

Not sure what is going on with my 2x tube order. Ordered on 30th and it's been notified pre-shipment to USPS since Monday.
 
Did a pump session in shower. 3 times. Since my silicap2 was split in the bottom 2 inches, I used the elastic band that was in the original packaging of the MityVac - Wet and Dry Penis Vacuum Pump System to cover that part. Went in with 70-80% erection and went to 5Hg. Packing width of 2'' tube up maybe 5 inches and length past the 8.5 inch marker. Really need that 2.25 inch tube to arrive...

red dots are gone from yesterday.

Some pain near tip of glans but I don't see any discoloration or swelling.

Sent an email to sales to find out where my shipment is. Thought I'd have my stuff after a week.
 
Pain near the tip of the glans means you've hit the baseline expansion limit. That pain is an indicator of micro fissures below the epidermis, or even the epidermis itself, that you don't see. Log that baseline in. Try at 4 inHg on first session, 5 inHg on 2nd session, and back down to 4 inHg on 3rd session for the next week. If you don't feel that pain at the tip for the next few days, pump back up to 5 inHg again. Don't let the micro fissures cause issues.
 
I do not understand why people are experiencing pain.
 
Common phenomenon for those who are starting out. Same with me when I started my first few weeks of pumping way back then. As I increased in pressure, same thing occured. When I used the Bathmate for the first few times, same thing happened as I enter into the 8 inHg zone. Everyone has different sensitivity.

I just think I have a different relation to pain. There is "pain" that is pure pleasure and are safe, and there is PAIN.
 
I didn't feel the pain while pumping. I also have some different relations to pain. You might call it a discomfort. I'm certainly not in agony. It feels very low level right now and if I squeeze all around, there are no tender areas.
 
Yep, definitely micro fissures at the tip of the glans. Lower the pressure down a smidgen (1 inHg), and crank it back up to the prior pressure after the micro fissures heal. Your glans will be conditioned by then. Very common.

I never felt pain only a good dull soreness

Same. Even when I punctured my glans once, there was no pain strangely.

It takes a lot of abuse to hurt your penis

It's very tough. But at the same time sensitive.
Body mind connection is important for pe.
Strange thing to say, but it's important to know what your tissue needs and where your limit is. The key is to increase the intensity in a progressive way, to the upper limit.

Excellent point 👉
 
4/6/24 Did a couple hundred kegels in morning after using bathroom. I tend to do more each time after using bathroom when bladder is empty. Last set right before getting in bed. Multiple positions: standing, sitting, on all 4s, and lying on back with knees up.

Did SSJ and isolated compression squeezes at desk, 30sec of each back to back. 8 total sets.

Later on, did 3 intervals of pumping in mityvac without any sleeves. Lubed up with coconut oil, still restricted by packing width of tube. Tried using my bathmate for 3rd set with water but it didn't work well. I was being overly cautious because of the light-headed feeling from last time I used it. Also, there is small leak? Will need to fix that. Did the 3rd set with mityvac instead. While still in shower, did SSJ + ICS sets x 3-4. Expansion felt good.

30mins red light recovery before bed.

Talked with sales and there was some delay in my order but they said it would ship out on 4/8. I am eager to try the wider tube and see if I get more expansion. Also to try out the anti-turtling silisleeves. Another silicap2 should be shipping next week as well.
 
Awesome news
 
Did a 5x5x2 this afternoon, still using 2" tube. I was surprised, today I touched the end of the tube though I'm not going for length. Bottom half packing width of tube as usual. Seems like the top half of shaft is a bit resistant to expanding. I pumped without any rings or sleeves. I wonder if hitting end of tube is because I stuffed skin near base better into the tube.

Think I'll do another session later in evening. Just felt like after 5x5x2 was getting a bit fatigued. Also needed eat and do something different.
 
Excellent to hear...keep up the awesome work
 
Looks like your base is maxed out. You're forcing everyone upwards for length and glans expansion. SIM did the same and removed the Bathmate comfort insert for base expansion. If you want further base expansion rather than glans, stick with what you are doing now until the new cylinders arrive. Once you have the new cylinders, go for broke on the base expansion first. The glans can be expanded to a mushroom any time you want.

When you hit the top of the tube, even with the base being sucked in, you are already reach your limit on the tube. The tube must have at least 2 inches above the glans, even when the base is stuffed in, to allow proper vac pressure control for expansion.
