Hi AnotherOldMan,
Yes I get a full usable erection with viagra and sex shop pump - I do need to use a fairly tight ring to keep the erection during sex, this fits over the pump cylinder base and slides off onto the penis when fully pumped before releasing vaccuum and sliding the pump off.
Was that what you were asking about?

Was that what you were asking about?

Yes. I have experimented with a few of the cheaper pumps and have always had difficulty sliding the ring off over the pronounced lip without losing the vacuum.

Good point, and something people would need to check before buying - fortunately I bought a pump without the lip so it's easy to slide the ring off whilst maintaining vacuum.

By VED do you mean a vacuum device for having sex? Or a vacuum pump for penile exercises?

I use an Encore Deluxe (has both manual and battery pumps) and Osbon rings for sex.
The trick for me, at least, was practicing by myself and finding rings that worked best.

Most cheap sex store pumps also found on Ebay will do for exercising.

That's the key question. My ED isn't too severe, so I just use a cheap sex toy one (like the "Fireman") for circulation therapy. In that case, it's used very differently. It can even be therapeutic to get a boner and then put it in a pump for sustaining--versus creating--an erection.

Also, a pump is often prescribed after a prostatectomy (to encourage erectile function that's lost temporarily or permanently) and/or before implant surgery to maximize penis size before measuring the appropriate model and size of implant.
