******************Change in method*******************

Due to input from members and some additional reading I will be extending at a lighter tension level than I have been previously doing. I will be extending in between the first and second tension lines on my X4 where as previously I extended at or past the second tension line. I have yet to confirm what springs my X4 came with so it could be 1200 g or 1600 g. Current deluxe models come with 1500g and mine was purchased about a year and a half ago so who knows?

Ballooned- 10 min, ponr 1x.
Ulis- 2 (60 sec)
After shower stretches- 2 down, 2 out, 2 up.
Kegals- 200

Comments: Reduced tension as indicated above. Excellant PI's during breaks. Had pretty good girthy flaccid that turned into erections several times during recirculation breaks. Penis didn't have the usual strangled to death feel or look I typically got at higher tension levels. I sacrificed some sleep but got in some extra hours today. Experienced very little soreness and only a few slippage issues the last hour and a half or so.

X4 Total: 115 hours.

Bed fowlers- 20 min, apx.
After shower stretches- 2 btc, 3 down, 3 out, 3 up.
Kegals: 100

Comments: Same method as last night ( lower tension) but didn't have the same good PI's. No thick spongey flaccid. Pretty much almost like a temporary hard flaccid. Maybe Im still using too much tension. Extended between 1st and 2nd lines. Wish I knew how many grams that was but still don't know what springs I have. I got in some extra hours today. I woke up earlier than I wanted so I put the X4 on and went back to sleep for about an hour with the alarm clock set so I wouldn't oversleep and wake up with a black glans. No major slippage or soreness issues since using lower tension.

X4 Total: 123 hours.

Sunday 11-25-12

Warmup- 15 min.
X4- 4.5 hrs (am) 2 hrs (pm) and 1.5 (pm)
Bed fowlers- 30 min, apx.
After shower stretches- 1 btc, 2 down, 2 out, 3 up, 1 left and right.
Kegals- 100.

Comments: Some glans and foreskin soreness towards the end of every hour or so. I think this is from the amount of hours logged yesterday and some bedroom activity. PI's not as good as a couple of days ago but got a good floppy a couple of times doing heli shakes during recirc breaks.

I ended up using a digital scale to try to check the spring force. I placed the x4 on the scale by itself to get the weight of it. It weighed .5 lbs. I then pressed down on it to where it was at the first line. I did this five times. The average reading was 2.4 lbs after deducting the device weight. The second line was 3.7 lbs. The third line was beyond my scales limit of 4.5 lbs. So according to my scale and assuming my methodology is correct the first line exerts 1088g of force and the second line 1678g of force. So according to my scale my X4 has 3264 gram springs? I dont know what to make of it? Oh, X4 returned my e mail about the springs. They say it came with 1500 g springs? Maybe I should stack some weights on it and see how much weight it takes to depress it to the first line.

X4 Total: 131 hours.

2.4lbs = 1088grams 1/2= 544g
3.7lbs = 1678grams. 1/2= 839g

possibly, you measured both springs at the same time ?
if you did, then your lines would be ~ 500/1000/1500

Do you moisturize your foreskin? it might help

[ColtAR-15 Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close ColtAR-15]

I do when I am through extending. Its better today. Its mainly a problem for a day or so after sex and / or when I have done a lot of hours (6+).

Hows it going with lower extender tension?
I'm nearing 175 extender hours since starting back up on my extender routine and my girth has been taking off (length is just hanging where it is oddly enough)

[ColtAR-15 Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close ColtAR-15]

I am picking up more hours due to the lower tension and some creativity but Im not going to measure until I have 500 hours in. Im not optimistic about what the results will be though. I was for a little while after input and research about lower tensions but I pretty much think its going to be the same old story. A bunch of effort for nothing. Im hoping for the best but preparing for the worst.
