Belt too long...

gnome2 · Dec 17, 2017

Any recommendations on how to deal with the (ridiculously) long belt?

I'm about a 32" waist. And when it's at it's shortest it barely can keep me between green and yellow.

Granted I'm not obese but it's kind of crazy at its shortest length it doesn't deal with someone with my narrow hips.

I can only assume you are talking about the Phallosan belt, because you did not clarify. Pull the belt up higher, over your hips. Or, if that doesn't work, you can always add some padding to take up slack. But I have a 34" waist, and I can easily get my PF into the red, and my dick is well over 8" in a flaccid stretch. So, unless you're incredibly long, you just need to adjust.

gnome2 · Dec 17, 2017

Yes the PF belt. I'm shorter than you... And it's resting where it really needs to rest. I can't raise it up over my stomach as it will just make its way back down.

The belt system is a good design. It's just way too long in my opinion.

As Fill stated, I would try adding some padding between you and the belt. You could also try adding some ace wrap to the foam ring to take up some slack

Custom belts can be made by taking a trip to a sewing/arts and crafts store. You will find many belt designs and different belt textiles. The store called Michael's has a huge selection of creative modification for the belt issues.

I just thought about this but you could also buy a piece of Velcro like is on the belt and if you are handy with a sewing machine or have a SO that is you could sew that piece in front of the other piece and it would allow you to take the belt up some more

The best way to adjust the tension is to loop the belt around the body and connect it to the bell like normal. Then grab the bell and pull on it until you hit the desired color zone. Now hold it there while you slide your hand under the belt and move it around behind your back in the direction of the ring. While still holding the bell remove your hand from underneath the belt. Let go of the bell and the spring tension should stay loaded. What you are doing is using the friction between the skin and the belt to hold the tension.

Thank you for your responses.

1) I've stuffed a small rolled up towel between my belt, and while that might help, it really is ridiculous to have to do that and it's not exactly comfortable or conducive to being out and about. It can work yes, but it's not a great solution.

2) I of course have done what Randolpho suggests. But that friction against my body, over a short amount of time actually, will give way to the pulling from the other side. The static friction just isn't enough to counteract the difference in elastic forces on either end of the friction region.

3) I know of Michael's of course... I've bought stuff there for other ADS attempts. I wonder if they have some amazing tool that would let me bunch up part of the belt.

4) Sewing would be a good solution, I'd have to take it to a seamstress... Not going to take it to my sister who I think has a sewing machine. I don't need those questions.

Overall though it's just really stupid to have this problem. At it's longest length, and by the time you stretch it to give it tension, you literally would need to be Jabba the Hut to wear it like that. The damn belt is way too long.

Thanks again for the ideas.

Hit Michaels and let your imagination go wild. It is always a good thing to bring a new solution to the PE table.

I can't quite figure out why you can't create enough tension with a 32" waist and the belt adjusted to its minimum length. I have roughly a 34" waist and my adjustment slider is situated about 2 inches past the midpoint on the side nearest to the loop.

Adjust your belt to its shortest length and measure it. Here's a picture of mine below at that length for reference.

More pasta and ice cream, lol

Exactly, when there is no way invent it! Michaels and HomeDepot are worth going to just to get ideas!

The a knot in the belt. That will take up a couple inches of slack

gnome2 · Dec 22, 2017

Another good idea, thanks.

Yesterday I managed to get a really good 10 hour stretch, in the yellow area for the most part.

I have to use a second layer of silicon over the protective cap. That damn cap is too damn short to fit my entire head in, and if I don't artificially extend it by covering it up, my skin will roll up and pinch between the cap and the bell, limiting my use to 2-4 hours at a time before the discomfort becomes substantial.

It's a shame - I have two hacks going on to make this thing usable. Can't use the "condoms" because the medium is way too small and the large can't hold a vacuum well when I'm completely flaccid. Plus I need this other silicon sheath between the cap and the outer silicone sleeve.

And of course I have to figure out how to reliably get into the yellow for hours, with a belt that was designed for people with bigger waists...

That said, with these hacks, it probably is the best ADS out there. (And I've used others).

I really do wish that protector cap was a lot longer though.

DLD · Dec 22, 2017

It sounds like progress and we will find a solution to the protector cap, someone will come out with a mod soon, believe me. Modification of equipment is always welcome and usually makes it a better tool. Have a Merry Christmas!

gnome2 · Dec 22, 2017

So I'm not the only one who thinks the protector cap is way too short??? I just hadn't noticed discussions on that really.

I will admit - it's robust. Has not ripped. I have almost 300 hours on it.. Mostly in short 3 hour periods.. (Don't wear it at work)

So overall, a fair amount of on and offs...

Now that I've made it more like the AutoExtender... With a seal between two "parallel" silicone sleeves, the pain is much less of an issue.

I never use the protector cap. I don’t even have it as it ripped a long time ago. It isn’t necessary at all to use it. I have zero problem not using it and I go 8hr straight at least

I don’t use the condoms either. A silicone sleeve works much better.

That is good to know and I think others should try without the cap as it could solve an issue that does not need to exist.
