CB3000 - Be careful what you wish for!Submitted by: NotchasteyetWell I've upgraded to the 3000 (see my prior article on the cb2k) now and here is how it's going. March 1, about 9:00 PM. Finally arrived at a good test set of spacers and rings. I was in the midsize ring with the 2000, but looking at the 3000 I decided to go a size down. This one is very difficult to get into, but as you know, balls are round, and when they go partway through an opening there is more pressure. Ouch. I'm still using one of the smaller A spacers and this thing feels pretty solid. I haven't tried to pullout yet, but there is a possibility that I can't. I'll try later. Actually I might wait until tomorrow, I want to feel what a hardon is like in this thing. It seems like it's going to be way more comfortable, and hopefully more isolated from stimulation. Remember I got off twice in the 2000 without even pulling out. At the 15 minute check my balls are quite red, but not to worry yet. Nothing is numb. Problem with the ring/spacer set is that I get a dull ache. It's not bad, and I really hope I don't get any edema or numbness because I wouldn't like to loosen it up if possible. At the moment it seems I might or might not be able to pullout, if I go to a bigger spacer or ring I'm pretty sure I could. Then I would have to use the POI, which I have already purchased. I tried it but they are thicker than my spacer. I tried a double A ring and used the POI and it was too bulky and uncomfortable. I looked at the POI and it's really not the way I want to go. Also I'd have to file it (them) down to make it fit, even with the same A ring, I think. Of course the fact that it's pretty hard work just to get into this A ring is a sign I might be secure right now. I really don't want to know until the morning. Others have complained about imperfections, burrs or cracks/openings. My specimen has none of these. It appears to be perfect. I'll report again after the "stress test" . :-) Among other stress tests, I have been thinking about the Chastitysteel CS100, and I was thinking, am I strong enough to pull the tube away from the ring enough to escape ? Being metal that would bend. I was thinking about this with my getup right now, could I simply bend it open ? I'm pretty strong and I don't know. Finding out would of course destroy the pin, which could be cut anyway. A stainless pin would be fairly secure. With a 2000 you can figure out how to cut it all off almosty safely, but a 3000 fits more intimately it seems. The area where the 3000 cage works with the ring is smaller, so even with a smaller A ring it pulls on your balls less. It also allows them to ride together, a big advantage when sitting. At the 45 minute check my scrotum is the same color, nothing is numb. I've also made a half ass attempt at pulling the thing apart. I felt very little give. I also just started to feel around and I don't think I can pull out. The A ring is too small. It also appears to have trapped a bit of my upper scrotum, where it meets the penis' epidermis. This is another obstacle to pullout. I'll tell you what, it's a really big improvement. With the 2000 all you really needed was a pair of dykes (cutting pliers/wire cutters). Not so here. You could do the pin, but I know there's a stainless steel solution out there. With wire cutters all you could do is render the 3000 very uncomfortable or dangerous, and possibly even still be secure. With it's current shape you would be best off to cut the lock, anything alse would be dangerous and might result in at least minor injury. I mean really, DO NOT just go get a Dremmel tool and try it. At 1 hour: The dull ache of my balls has subsided. I am now aware of a chafe/stinging at the bottom of my scrotum. As this is a 2000 series A ring there is no hinge. I suspect it is skin folded up over itself down there. Wouldn't surprise me as tight as the thing is. I hope I can fix that in bed tonight. I will check for numbness frequently. :-) I can probably deal with the sting at the bottom by just greasing everything up before putting it on. At 1 hour 15 minutes: Awesome, I discovered that I can actually piss straight in it (standing up). Moved around a bit of skin and ameliorated the problem in the nether regions. With the discomfort removed I can now notice other things. In a sitting position I can put my legs together, and if I leave enough room for my fist between my knees I am fairly comfortable. I bet I can got off in it though, as long as I can do it without being totally hard. I could manipulate it so my member is sliding in and out slightly. Might do it. I'll get back to you on that. Unfortunately the only way to be sure I can't would be a piercing, or a belt that kept the unit in close contact with my pubic bone to prevent relative movement. I will write more after I gain more experience with this device. March 15th. I've found that the discomfort caused by the CB3000 mostly comes after you take it off. So I got an idea, leave it on longer. Today was, , , different. Last night I decided to see what it's really like and I froze my keys in a 16 oz. cup of water. I figured they'd be frozen in the morning and I'll just go to work. They'll be thawed by the time I get home. Ha ! Speaking of freezing, the keys weren't alone, in the wee hours my furnace went on the fritz. Well that's just dandy because its 16 degrees outside. I was awakened by the cold, the vents were blowing ice cold air and I looked down and thought about my appliance. I figured I would have a look at the keys. Absolutely solid as a rock. Now I'm thinking with no heat, they will not thaw as fast, so I left them out. I fixed my own furnace, as I do almost everything I own, I fix things. When that was done after all the running around chasing down parts (locked) I was feeling pretty good considering the lack of sleep. Well I got froggy and decided to put my ice creation in the fridge. My fridge is set to about 32.1 degrees, so it will not melt fast. If I leave it in there it's very unlikely I'll have brass in hand in the morning. I still have some plumbing issues, but the heat works. I won't freeze. I had a couple of projects around the house, reseat the toilet, bunch of things that really needed to be done. I did them, that's what you're supposed to do when locked right ? After dealing with life Monday I got froggy again, I had put the keys in the fridge, I have now moved them back to the freezer. I think I'll leave it on awhile, what's awhile ? Who knows. You see I've been wearing this thing for 24 hours now without having an erection, err I mean wannnabe erection. I haven't gone 24 hours without a hardon for decades. As I stated before, I shrink, but when I get hard I get really hard. You see now I am really locked because of the ice, and I've not yet enjoyed that frustration. Think of it, you go to bed in like 68-70 degrees and wake up about 41/2 hours later in 52 degrees. You're not likely to remember the hardon, if you even had one, I don't know about you, but if I get a hardon in 52 degrees it's use it or lose it. This is what I'm after, really locked. Even though it's plastic, as the Waterhole will be, ability to get to the key and inability to get to the key are two different things. Right now I am unable to get the key without some measures, and more serious measures will be setup soon. I will make it harder. Right now I cannot get to the key, and I can't pullout. I'm not even using the POI, but I know from the insertion process that I can't get out that way. Even when the device is unlocked I have a hard time getting the A ring off. It's about as hard as getting it on. I have to push my member into my abdomen to get it on or off. I think a pullout isn't likely, to even get the unlocked A ring off I have to push it in. I mean I have to push it ALL the way into my abdomen to get even the UNLOCKED A ring off. Any excitement and it stays on. A thought about those without KHs, soda bottles. Start with the real small 7oz kind, you can work your way up to the 2 litre if you want . . . . Think, the ice must melt enough that it will fit through the neck. To enhace the security, you can run a chain in that water that is chained up in a place away from any major sources of heat, or sinks. Until it melts you are stuck, as I am now. Now that I have heat I'll be able to experience a "normal" night. Granted I could put the "keycup" in the microwave, or in a sink of hot water, but I'll deal with those insecurities in due time. It'll be real tomorrow anyway, I will be on the other side of town from the key :), ( umm, :) I think ). Part two: I was locked starting at 10 PM Sunday. The irritation under my scrotum became "get this thing off me" at about 2 PM today (Tuesday), although I couldn't do a thing about it. I could've cut the locking pin, but then what , walk through the shop with my device in hand and make it out to my car without explanation ? I think not. I also really don't want to cut the pin, that would just prompt me to buy the stainless replacement. I would rather the thing be less uncomfortable and intend to try some different rings and spacers again. I continued to work, leaving work early is not a good option for me because I work past rush hour. The beer bell finally rang and I knew it wouldn't be long, but it seems working aggravated it quite a bit. I'm going to let things settle down and try a bigger ring. I don't think the spacer's the problem. I'll let you know. Be careful what you wish for. Through Monday night and this morning I got my erections and couldn't do anything. That 16 oz cup of water was about 1/2 melted through the day so I decided to pour off some of the water and put it back in the freezer. About 5 oz of solid ice was there in the morning. I moved the container from the freezer to the fridge before leaving. When I got home today only about 25 % of it had melted, but I had no choice but to use hot water. A plastic soda bottle would've made this take alot longer, and after how bad it got today I was glad I hadn't tried that. I wanted to wear it for a whole day, and I mean wake up with it on and go to bed with it on. Ultimately I made it for 44-1/2 hours. I wanted to really be stuck in it, but not for long term, and I got that wish toward the end of the workday and during the drive home. I was really stuck, I had nothing in the car that could cut the pin, it takes X time to get home. During that time I was really stuck, physically ! This realisation would be OK if it were comfortable, but it was literally to the point of pain. In spite of the pain, or partly because of it I actually started getting turned on during the ride. Perhaps I'm a bit of a daredevil, because I have some unfinished business with traffic court and if I get stopped before I get it taken care of I go to jail. That's kind of ominous, and actually it wouldn't be so bad if the thing didn't HURT. If it were confortable I would just tell them that this was my GFs idea of fun (although she hasn't seen it yet), and I had consented. Since I can't remove it it's no threat to anyone or anything. If I was actually allowed to keep it I'm sure it would invoke interest and, so what ? You don't get raped in county jails, you might get raped in one of those prison carwashes, but not in jail. In fact where I got busted last they might not have even found it. Not a real good frisk job, but I have some connections there and I could hear it now " I talked to _____ and he said when they busted you, you were wearing some contraption on your. . . ", and that's only if they would've found it. I'd say it would be better than 50-50 that they would find it. Other places are different, and if you owe a fine anywhere, you can get popped for it basically anywhere in the county. Some places issue you clothing, even in jail, so I guess I would've been the talk of the town. I know I would be very embarassed, and I'm starting to think that this would not be the worst thing in the world. I would just have to deal with it, like I would if injured in a wreck or something. What else would I do ? Epilogue I will still wear it after a rest period. I intend to make this thing comfortable and still be secure. There is still some degree of trauma to my scrotum, it's all shrunk like I was standing naked out in that 16 degrees the other day. ( yes I get that ) I will also find a way with the Waterhole, which arrived today (Wednesday), and I put it on as soon as I got it. It doesn't mess with my sac like the 3000 so it seems comfy right now. Stay tuned for a review on that. It might be a few days but I will send you a seperate review. Thanks again for your kickass website, and considering the high quality of most of your content I'm proud to be published here.
