Bluetooth Pumps are coming!

Many many cons as have been stated. One pro would be the ability to do early cycling. No need for scrotal swelling to go down to have proper pump button access.

I fail to see much of an up side to this. How much more will an IPP cost with this innovation? Perhaps insurance companies will only be willing to pay for a manual pump? Think how cost conscious they are now. I can imagine the posts on FT already. My insurance won't pay for my blue tooth pump! What are my options to get one, I really need it badly.

It seems obvious that there will be an over pressure limit built into it. What will the limit be? Men that don't pump to max won't care. Those of us that want every last partial squeeze won't be happy.

So if the blue tooth doesn't gain favor & not many are installed. Who wants a discontinued electronic pump in their body? The tech landscape is littered with tech stuff that didn't sell very well.

I want products that are simple & work.... every time. Despite men complaining about pumps. My CX works every time that I ask it to work & I use it at max pumps.

I beg to differ on this. My drs assistant showed me how to pump even though I was moderately swollen. Dr Eid has you pumping very early, swollen or not.

In my case swelling didn't hinder pumping. A sore shaft did hinder pumping. I'm sure with the blue tooth pump you'll still have a tender shaft.

I'll pass. I don't even notice the pump anymore. And when I want to be inflated it's right there, simple and quick.

I would see this as a big improvement, less infection risk, less discomfort in scrotum, faster surgery faster recovery. No problem to find the bloody deflating button. Why you should use a phone, it can be a wristband with a small remote, only liquid inn and out. like a smart watch, nobody has do notice.
Remember most revisions a related to pump and tubes failure. So less revision as well.
You integrate the pump inside the reservoir so you only have two tubes to the cylinder. we are talking about next generation of implant and for sure it will go this way. many electronic micro pumps are implanted already today for different operations. and they are more reliable than our analog system.
I would love to sign for a prototype user.

Just like anything new, especially with technology, everyone is going to hate it at first until they eventually realize the benefits.
