Question about BM Hercules & X30.

[Jayce99 Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Jayce99]

I've been trying to decide between these two Bathmate models and I need a little advice. After reading various articles and websites, I haven't been able to find a clear answer regarding the maximum erect length (compressed) that each model can handle. Anyone have any idea? I want to achieve a certain length, and I want to be sure it'll accomodate it. Also, when ordering from an online retailer (other than the official Bathmate website), how can you tell if the Bathmate you are buying is genuine? For example, I found the X30 here: <link removed> but I have no idea if it's legit or not. Thanks a bunch! -Jayce

It says made in the UK, and produced by Bathmate. That's about the best you are going to get for genuine indication other than buying from a direct source.

Here's a chart for sizes.

So, I guess that means neither the Hercules nor the X30 would cut it if my length goal is 7.5". That's unfortunate because any model higher than X30 is way too expensive. A while back I had planned on grabbing the Penomet, but after reading so many negative reviews from users about their disgustingly poor customer service and their "Thanks for your money, don't come bacK" attitude, I decided to look at the Bathmate series instead (not to mention that they don't have any retailers in Canada, so ordering overseas is a no thank you). -Jayce

You can make your own water pump. Doing this is more affordable and just as effective if not arguably a more effective way to perform water based pumping

I am 7.75 and fit in the bathmate hercules length wise, it's girth is what made me upgrade.

How's that possible when the chart directly from Bathmate as well as various other reviews say max length is 7.1"? Are they trying to scam you into paying for a higher end model when it isn't necessary or something?

See there is room at the top in the diagram, your penis won't touch the top unless it is 8.1 or 8.2+ probably. Now is it optimal to not have room at the top? probably not. Is the pump still usable? imo yes.

That's the maximum suggested usable size, giving a bit of room for expansion. The chamber is a bit larger.

If you are close, it may be more cost efficient to just purchase the larger one, so you don't have to buy another in the near future.

Go with your maximum size goals for your choice of pump. You can pump a small penis with a large pump, but once your size reaches the limits of the pump, you'll need something larger.
