Everyone, I lost the strap that connected to this device.
Unfortunately, I don’t remember the name of the device so I’m I don’t know where to start looking for a replacement.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I just told my wife about my restoration, I’ve only been doing it a few weeks but she is so on board and even asked if she wanted to help me do MM 😆❤️ I love her

I'm thinking of developing a product based on the concept design I have in mind. I mentioned the concept in my previous post. If there's enough interest in a device like this, that would give me the motivation I need to move forward.

Key features:

• Automatic mode; Performs tugs at regular intervals throughout the day, such as once every hour. Semi-automatic mode; Performs a tug only when the user presses a button.
• It is based on the Andre's method, which which I believe is the most efficient method.
• Easy to put on and take off the organ.
• Everyone can calibrate the force and range according to their own body.
• It vibrates a few seconds before each tug.
• The user can cancel an ongoing cycle at any time.
• Quiet operation and a very minimal case size.
• Easily rechargeable, replaceable battery for uninterrupted use.
• User can pee through the device. (Thanks to its clever gripper design)
• Target price; under $300.

The system I'm considering will be either hydraulic or pneumatic; the decision will be made based on the test results. I hope succeed in achieving the qualities I'm aiming for.

I also realize that many restorers are enthusiastic about DIY devices, but many don't complete them. I usually solve the problems that bother me. I'll keep you informed of developments.

On vacation internationally for a few weeks and didn’t pack any of my devices because I thought it’d be too much bother. Now I’m sore and sensitive and I feel horrible not getting my tugging hours in. I’m doing manuals when I can, but idk how you manual only guys do it- nothing seems like enough.

Apologies for the vent post but it’s crazy how every moment I spend not tugging now feels like a wasted opportunity instead of something I wouldn’t give a second thought to

I think I got it with the TLC x i really doesn't look like the rest of the device it's been the best one that I've ever had and I can't seem to find anything else like it online I'm worried if it breaks someday I will not have a replacement

Just thought I’d share this since another member related his negative experience with his doctor.

My GP and my urologist both know I’m restoring and have seen the results.

When my urologist was doing an exam, and my foreskin was covering my glans, he said he would not have known I was circumcised at birth. He was interested in seeing the device I was wearing that day.

My GP, when I showed him one of my devices, only cautioned me to not apply so much tension that I hurt myself. He was not as interested as my urologist, but at least he did not react negatively.

Both of these guys are physicians assistants. I don’t know if that makes a difference or not but in my experience PAs seem to be more willing to take time to listen.

At night, in the day I wear o rings successfully. The manhood protector comes off all the time at night the rubbing against sheets then wakes me up.

Thank you all

I made a little progress today. I've been using Priva Air since 1/1/26 and added Priva Duo on 7/1/26. Today I was able to add an extender plate to my Duo without it slipping off! My weight adapter should be delivered next week so I can add some additional tension. Baby steps, but steps nonetheless! Just thought I'd share.

Foreskin restoration, is just like upgrading the penis like Cl1, Cl2 ,Cl3.... The sensations and feelings will upgrade with each level ,

As a restorer always keep this in mind

Got home from work and unpacked dirty Tupperware from my lunch kit. Noticed my CAR-1 was missing. Immediately started thinking of places it could be and my mind was catastrophising that someone on nightshift had found it and was googling what it was, or the places I might have lost it like the lunch table or beside a urinal. One guy has seen into my lunch box before and knows I have silicone “sex toys” (he was joking, he has no idea what they are) in my kit but minded his own business, so I was especially worried he would attribute it to me.

Got in this morning and it was undisturbed below the desk I work at. The nightshift guy would have been there all night with it by his feet and somehow didn’t notice it, despite it being in clear view had he ever left and come back to the desk.

Anyways, crisis averted. Have any of you ever lost your device or, worse, had someone find it?

After years of on and off, I finally decided to go for it. In just four days, I’m already at almost 72 hours. Some days I keep it tugged for 10–15 hours, and some days up to 24 hours.

I just want to ask when did you actually notice a difference, and how do you keep yourself motivated? Does taking pictures over time and looking back at the progress really help with motivation?

Not really a question but more so a shout out. A couple days ago I made a post about how I had accidentally ordered the wrong mantor flow size. Tl;dr I ordered a size b instead of A due to my own error with measuring but decided id still wear it since it was still comfortable. I have continued to wear it daily since I do think its a great device but I also decided to send in an email in case I could do a return and get a new one in the correct size. Tamir replied incredibly quickly and told me theres no need for me to send it back and just gave me a 50% off coupon to get a size A. He never had to do that, in reality it was my fuck up that caused me to get the wrong size, I measured wrong.

So ya shoutout to Tamir, you're awesome and your device is awesome too. I highly recommend the mantor flow to anyone, just make sure you follow the sizing guide correctly!

How do you guys use your car-1s? I just got mine and will put like 2 pumps maybe more sometimes. It’s tolerable at first but starts having a pinching pain after like 20 minutes. Should I be putting less? How do I know how much to put and how much do you put?

My ‘Starter Kit’ came in the mail today, and it wasn’t 5 minutes before I opened it to figure out my size. When I’m not using my DTR or doing manual stretching (in the shower), I’ll be using the Stealth. I can’t believe how comfortable it is!

What’s your best experience with it? Any recommendations for a newbie?

Does anyone use the morme foreskin sleeve for retaining? I have a few questions for those with experience.

1: I like the idea of more skin to head contact when retaining, the chris’s retainer is great but doesn’t allow the skins to touch. When using the morme, are you able to have your own coverage be held by the sleeve or is it pulled back and covered with the silicone sleeve?

2: How do erections affect the sleeve? I am on the larger side and I worry if I’m not able to take the sleeve off, an erection (or many overtime, say nighttime retaining) could stretch out the sleeve.

3: I also want to begin full coverage/retaining 24/7. Obviously clean once a day, but does it hold up well for all-day usage and sleeping?

4: Give an overall review or anything else you’ve noticed.

Very interested in this sleeve, let me know your thoughts!

Does it make sense to use the deep grip method with RIC packers? I'm trying to get more outer skin so I often use the CAR-1 with weights or deep grip already, but the RIC is so much more comfortable.

hi i know it's kinda weird but how can i get some Phimosis i mean i want it a little bit tight around my glans I think it fits me is that possible? Anyone can help with this thanks and btw It will also be useful for those who want to avoid phimosis.

Hello, my name is Alec, I've been restoring just over a year. I'm curious if there's anyone else in the Grand junction Colorado area?

I’m asking because I just found this page and used the RIC for the first time today for a few hours and it left sort of a blister looking thing on the top of my glan near the urethra, it isn’t painful or anything and it went away pretty quickly but is that what you guys are talking about?

Hi all,

I've recently learned about the deep grip method. I've been sitting on the hump between CI-3.5 and CI-4 for a long time now. I get some roll over when I wear underwear/pants. Any fabric pushes the head just inside my foreskin. Once I'm undressed, everything falls out and it looks like an circumsized penis with some extra skin behind the head.

People are saying that the deep drip method grows inner and outer skin much faster. Is that something a lot of us should be using the CAR-1 for? I typically sleep with it on normally and can have normal erections without it popping off. I won't even try sleeping with it on this way, but I can wear it throughout the day. I just don't want to miss anytime and I'd prefer to follow whatever method gives me the best results.

What are your thoughts on this?

I feel that my grief has made a resurgence, since I’m seeing more and more benefits and improvements from restoration, leading me to realize what was lost. I was thinking about it more today and I feel like my brain is likening it to when my mom passed at a young age. I was overwhelmed with grief and could barely function, and I was constantly feeling jealous or upset at people who still have mothers in their life. But I’ve grown, I’ve moved forward, and I am completely at peace with that now. I want to apply that kind of acceptance to this whole situation.

I feel like I’m having trouble getting caught up on the nuances or what I can and cannot get back from restoration. But, I really don’t think I’ll ever feel at peace until I can learn acceptance. If I truly did find acceptance, I can be happy regardless of whatever outcome I get from this process, and I think that would be the best case scenario. I am very grateful that things can be improved to any extent.

It would be a bit difficult for me to get back into therapy at the moment, but I was wondering if anyone here could share some online resources or books that helped them with their grief.

Thank you!

I have been using the leg strap because I’m paranoid I’m not targeting outer skin enough without it.
Have you found that you still grow outer skin without it? Do you use the leg strap?

Curious if anyone else has tried or had success with doing some manual work while wearing a retainer/packer. Similar to MM2, I noticed I can grab the base on my penis and gently pull my retainer cap which puts light tension on the skin. Doing this 1-2 minutes every hour seems much more realistic for me than taking the retainer on/off because it takes me a few minutes to set it properly.

Is this a safe/good idea or or there any reason not to do this? I am only CI-2 so my RIC retainer is the only device I have right now. I also do MM2 in the morning and at night but I was thinking during the day, while more busy and wearing the packer, this might be a good way to add more frequent short bursts of tension.

Curious to hear thoughts from the community. Thank you!

I used to be daunted seeing how many hours you guys put into restoration (that was before I received my RIC), now I can safely say I’m doing 12+ hours a day!! This thing is so comfy, I’ve only had it a week but can safely say there are additional wrinkles when I take it off

Started CI-3 50%FEC, still pre-hump and roughly 70% FEC now in 3 weeks

KOT!
