Well, fellow bionic brothers, I have bad news.

My Rigicon Infla 10x suddenly stopped working out of the blue after returning from Bangkok to Europe on a very long flight, landing in Abu Dhabi under Iranian fire. For some reason, my implant is only operating at about 50%. I have the dreaded flattened pump, and I suspect there is a leak and displacement of the cylinders, since I can feel the cables and everything right at the front of my scrotum. It's really demoralizing to see the cylinders stop inflating!
During these past months, I have been masturbating daily, having sex almost every day with dozens of different partners, and doing pumping exercises with a VED. The VED might be the suspect here, even though I don't know how it would be possible for it to move the cylinders upward or downward.

During this time, I took notes and treated the implant like a science experiment, documenting most of its unexpected behavior. A few things I hadn't read on the forum before: during sex, the cylinders would lose pressure for some reason (maybe related to this final failure). I got used to repumping while changing sex positions. I tried almost every position except anal sex without much of a problem, apart from occasionally forgetting to discreetly repump.
My sex life has been incredible and limited only by my own mental stamina. All the girls have been greatly surprised and wanted more. But I was always a little worried about that slight deflation; looking back at my diary, I can see this issue already popped up during the early days.

Now I need to make another trip to Turkey to visit Dr. Cetin, because I don't trust the European doctors as much. Before doing that, I will get a scan to see if there is a clear mechanical failure. It's demoralizing, but it's not the end of the world. In theory, these devices have a lifetime guarantee, and I definitely didn't expect to need a revision this soon.

I'm praying it was just a mechanical failure on this first implant, maybe incorrect sizing combined with a lot of movement displaced it. And I hope to gain at least 2 cm from the new ones, since I always used the implant at 100% inflation without much pain or discomfort.

I would love to know if there is anyone here who has had a Rigicon revision or suffered the same fate?
Love to all.

I'm so sorry it failed so early. What makes you think there was a sizing problem?

I feel your frustration, that sudden 50% failure after your epic Bangkok-to-Europe adventures is a real gut punch. But this isn’t defeat, it’s just a mechanical hiccup these implants occasionally face under heavy use. The lifetime warranty has your back, and revisions often deliver even better results, many brothers gain that extra length and rock-solid reliability afterward. Get the scan, head to a high volume dedicated implanter, and you’ll be back at 100% power in no time. Your diary proves you’ve already lived an incredible sex life, now imagine the upgrade! Stay strong. This is just a pit stop. I tell my fellow brothers here, all implants on steroids (aka IPPs) come with a lifetime guarantee of revisions, if you live long enough. This is not failure my friend, this is your racecar's pitstop maintenance. You got this.

I am very sorry to read about your setback. We share the same device even same size. I have writtent my concerns about durability by heavy use and penetration. My wife is getting very wild during climax in cowgirl position and rides me like crazy with rapid back and forth movements. After a session like that I had real pain at the base of my penis. The other thing I experienced is during heavy dogystyle that the tips of the implants poke on the glanswall. I dont know if your problems are a result of your frequent and maybe sometimes heavy use but you have to take it in consideration. Special because the new tubes, wires have had an improvement in case of connection and it looks like the leakage comes from there. Wish all the best for your revision.

Thanks for commenting, totally missed your posts!
After heavy strokes in cowgirl I felt the cylinders retract somehow. The tips never really touched the glans. I'd just repump when she was exhausted, but maybe doing that repeatedly repositioned them over time.

I thought the cylinders just stuck in place, so it was weird. What started as an absolute minor inconvenience is now a serious concern for the future

Mostly because I never felt the tips on the glans, and based on the comment above, I feel the cylinders slide down during cowgirl or heavy penetration. I’ve become very familiar with the device and can locate almost every component by touch, so I can measure or track the position of the tips, cylinders, etc. I don’t care as much about the sizing, but it’s important to me that they stay stuck in position, even under heavy use.
