Well ladies and gentlemen, I’ve worn the size Genetics extender for 100+ hours so far in 2026. In this update post I am going to reveal a number of things I’ve learned or have been reminded of. Let’s dive in.
Better Nightly Erections
I won’t lie: as I’ve gotten older, my erection frequency as I sleep has diminished. For whatever reason, even with low tension, wearing the Size Genetic Extender really helps. Recently, my nightly erections have been so rock hard at night that it wakes me up. It almost hurts, in a good way—like my penis is begging for release. I’m not sure why this is occurring, but I love it. This alone is reason enough for me to wear the Size Genetics Extender.
Work towards higher tensions
I advocate that people start with low tension and work upwards. When I first got this device, I try to do the most amount of tension I could handle. I could only wear the device for maybe 90 minutes. How people were able to wear a penis extender for 12 hours a day boggled my mind. The answer is simple. Start with low to almost zero tension, and work up. Every 200 hours, or so, I add more tension to the extender. I am earning my right to be able to wear the device 12 hours a day at higher tensions. My first 100 hours was the extender with no additional tension bars.
Aim to wear the extender for 4-12 hours a day
On average, I wear the extender 7 hours a day. My best day so far as been 11 hours. My worst day was 3 hours. I believe my philosophy of starting at low tension and working upward is the reason I’ve been able to rack 100+ hours only two weeks into 2026. It feel like the first goal a person should pursue is to be able to wear the extender for a long period of time before adding tension.
Pro tip: Don’t drink a ton of liquids before wearing an extender
I’ve never seen anyone discuss this (though I am sure someone has), but don’t drink a ton of liquids before putting the extender on. The reason being is that you might end up needing to pee a lot and will have to take the extender off a number of times in a single hour. While I am not saying that you can never pee when trying to get your hours in, I’m saying that having to pee every 20 minutes and you keep taking the extender off and putting it on can be a pain. To avoid this inconvenience, I try to keep my drinking to a minimum.
Tugger vs. The Noose.
The best additional to an extender is the tugger or suction condom. However, I’ve been wearing the noose lately as I find it easier to put the device or or take it off during work. If I worked from home, I’d wear the tugger all day, but since I am not. I use the noose. I would highly suggest you check out the TLC Tugger. It is a great additional to any penis extender.
Comfort rag
Not going to lie, my cock is so thick that it ripped the comfort pad. So, I took an old rag and cut it into strips. Now I wrapped by cock in one before putting on the extender. Not only does it reduce irritation but it also helps create friction which keeps it from slipping. The big thing about this is you need to wash the rag often. Obviously it is going to get dirty and possibly some urine on it through out the day. If you choose to do this, don’t be gross, wash the rags.
Shorts vs. Jeans.
Wearing the size genetic extender with jeans sucks. It is way more ocmfortable wearing shorts and no underpants with the extender. Obviously, I can’t do that all the time, but if you have the option of doing this. I’d recommend it as it makes wearing a penis extender WAY more comfortable.
Don’t over tighten the noose
Sometimes, the extender really hurts. I’ve learn that the majority of the times it is because you the noose on too tight. I usually loosen it about a 1/8 inch on each side, and the pain is relieved within a few minutes.
Clean it!
I’ve found Lysol wipes to be the best way to clean the extender. They are easy to use, easy to get, etc. I clean mine nightly with a wipe than let the device sit out and air dry. Again, I don’t often see people talking about cleaning your device, but bacteria can build up on any male enhancement device or sex toy. This can lead to a nasty infection if somehow the bacteria is introduced to an open wound. That is why I suggest people clean daily, if not, weekly for all their devices.
Did I gain anything?
The only thing I gained was more tolerance to wearing this device for long periods of time. I don’t expect to gain anything until the tension gets a high enough sometime after 600 hours. However, to keep myself accountable and to show proof, here is a dick pic with some measurements (I know the length picture sucks).
The next 150 hours.
I’ve add 3/8ths to the tension bar. I plan on wearing the device for another 150 hours before an additional update. While I don’t believe I will gain anything at this tension, I might be surprised.
