I am new.

I have nothing yet to physically assist me with this disease: no traction device nor VED.

I believe the best course for me would be to use a Vac3 or Vac4 along with a VED (which model remains to be seen).  

What my trouble is now is just when I think I have figured out how to order a system from Autoextender, I get all confused.  As I said, i have nothing, so I am not trying to modify anything.  I just want the extender and the VAC system (the 4).  If anyone has any insight, that would be great.

I'm in the US, so it's the info on their usorder.html page.

Many thanks!

Man, I looked at that website a couple of months ago as it was mentioned here...and completely gave up. I can't figure out what the hell they are talking about, and they have zero description!

P.S. I'm sticking to VEDs for the moment anyway. I'm not ruling out traction, but I also think it's easy to overdo stretching, so I'm in no big hurry.

The VED has worked well for me. No change in the curve, but less hard flaccid, and a generally better hang and feel.

Old Man directed me to the Augusta Single-Cylinder Manual (do not buy the battery-operated one!!!) VED. Cost me $84 for a very well-constructed, easy-to-use design.

I can send you the link if you PM me.

You also need to talk with Old Man. Using these things seems like the simplest idea in the world, but the practice can raise some surprising questions!

Thanks, UM; I will message you.

Thank you for telling me NOT to get the battery-operated one.  I've been all over this forum and seen so many things.

I probably won't bother Old Man privately; he must be besieged with messages constantly.

I don't think he'll mind. He's the guru on the topic, and very generous with his time and advice.

As to the battery-operated VED, not only is it more expensive, it's harder to control with precision. And the most important thing about the VEDs is to never, never, overpump. As you can see if you prowl around this forum, a lot of people have hurt themselves with VEDs by overdoing the pressure.

If you're not using it for ED, but just for Peyronie's therapy, don't go to a full erection. There is no risk to underpumping--you'll still pull a lot of blood into your penis, and that's the goal. Take it easy.

This to;

Old man is a genuinely nice guy - I have exchanged views with him at some length.  I'm sure he will give you his honest opinion, no matter how busy he may be.
