I just got a encore pump from amazon to help me on my ED journey. The tube is 1 7/8th and as soon as my erection starts it feel like im squeezing myself in the tube. Heres the question the oversized tube is 2 1/16 or 2 1/8 which on a ruler is not much bigger at all. I don't want to waste another $50 for the oversized tube. Not sure what to think has anyone had this experience. I know im not that large so I must be doing something wrong.

John,

Its probably why its called ENCORE, because you have to go back and buy the newer model. But Jokes aside, send the item back under the warranty rules and get your money back.

I bought a much cheaper model, $20 from my local adult shop. It worked just as well; except I had too much urine in the pump meaning my valves (sphincters) had not totally healed and I did not want to put further stress on my sphincters and cause later leakage.

As you'll see in my profile, I don’t use the pump at all. It works for others but it does not work WELL for me. I was prepared to forgo the $20 expense for the item. Its just a loss.

PS. My Ed Nurse suggested that I buy one from the adult shop and not the medical model that they sell because they work just as good.

John,

The oversize Encore Medical tube is mostly longer and not that much bigger around. It is ten inches instead of eight and if you shop around you can find them for about forty bucks. My only suggestion would be to try a bit more lube in the tube to see if that uncomfortable tightness is partially caused by sticking to the side of the tube.
