How long have you been pumping with the Mytivac?Yes, the mity vac. Bathmates don't have vac gauges on them. I realized that after I posted.

Just impressive.Yes heat the pvc tubing with a heat gun so you can stretch it ovet the bottom of the Bathmate (over the valve). You have the tube always on your Bathmate. When you need to add more vaccum, you put the pvc tube inside the Vacu Vin pump. The fit should be snug
So you are dealing with the gator 🐊 every time, that's good news for me, maybe I will keep using Bathmate.
But imagine I would be to long for HydroXtreme 9 when I'm done with my LENGTHMASTER 3. 😁
Well then the only choice would be to get the MityVac pumping system. We will see.
I didn't get it to work since I ordered the wrong PVC tube. It was not flexible at all. Maybe I needed a heating gun, I only used a hair dryer to heat it up.Just impressive.
Just to be sure what are the inner and outer diameter specs for the PVC tubing you are using? I'm ordering on Amazon and want to order the proper inner and outer diameter PVC tubing to have a snug fit inside the vacu vin on one end and still be able to heat up the other end to expand and cover the Bathmate release snout. Thanks as always!
Thanks!I didn't get it to work since I ordered the wrong PVC tube. It was not flexible at all. Maybe I needed a heating gun, I only used a hair dryer to heat it up.
But these dimensions seams to work:
View attachment 1833461
ID = inner diameter
OD = outer diameter
The tube fitted snug inside the Vacu Vin pump. Maybe if you have the OD at 27 mm it would be even more perfect.
I believe you need at least OD = 26 mm for the PVC tube. Otherwise It's a risk it won't seal around the Vaccu Vin pump (the pvc tube inside the Vaccu Vin).Thanks!
I just found this with the dimensions of 19.1 ID and 25.4 OD which converts to .75 inches ID and 1 inch OD. If you think 1 inch OD will work then this flexible PVC tubing would be perfect for use for us.
Ok. Thank you. Will continue to look into and share my findings.I believe you need at least OD = 26 mm for the PVC tube. Otherwise It's a risk it won't seal around the Vaccu Vin pump (the pvc tube inside the Vaccu Vin).
A perfect OD will probably be: 26.5 mm.
Awesome. Please share everything. Even when I'm not going to need it (I'm to big for my hydromax 5). But other brothers could use detailed information about how to apply, the Vaccu Vin mod in the most easy and effective way.Ok. Thank you. Will continue to look into and will share my findings.
👍 I have an idea. It might not be possible to find the 26.5-27 mm OD dimension when the 1 inch OD (25.4 mm) is seemingly the standard so I think using heavy duty clear tape to wrap around the tubing will give it enough circumference to reach the desired mm diameter. Just one or two layer(s) would probably suffice. I'm going to give it a shot.Awesome. Please share everything. Even when I'm not going to need it (I'm to big for my hydromax 5).

I think maybe I could get this to work if I had a heating gun. Or my pvc tubing was simply to stiff and non elastic.
Awesomeness.👍 I have an idea.

I also ordered a heating gun as per your advice. 👍
It worked like a charm! I will post a complete guide to what I bought and did for my mod later.

Bathmate is hard to gauge but the mityvac is 5 to 8hgBathmate or MityVac at full intensity... What does that mean translated to actual vacuum numbers?
Bathmate is only for pumping with water.What's the difference between the mityvac n the bathmate?
The gator 🐊 is a mean bastard 😆.Ok up to what I know the BM works whit no water too.
