Is the Performance Ring or MaxPR better?
Where the Performance Ring wins
For most men, the Performance Ring is the better first ring. It is rated 3 of 5 for tightness, which FirmTech calls its comfort fit, and up to 12 hours of wear, more than eight times the MaxPR's 90-minute limit. That makes it easier to put on ahead of time and forget about. It costs the same $60.
Where the MaxPR fits better
The MaxPR is the better choice when maximum firmness and sensation matter most and a session is shorter than 90 minutes. FirmTech describes it as slimmer and snugger than the original, rated 5 of 5 for both tightness and pleasure. Some men keep both: the Performance Ring for everyday use and the MaxPR for occasions.

Common questions
Short answers here. Every question is answered in full on the ED ring FAQ.
Performance Ring or MaxPR: which should I choose?
Choose the Performance Ring if you want firmer, longer-lasting erections with a comfortable fit you can wear for up to 12 hours. Choose the MaxPR if you want the tightest hold and the most intense finish and can live with a 90 minute limit. Both cost $60, share the same peno-scrotal design and include a 3-month warranty.
Read this answer in the FAQPerformance Ring or TechRing: do I need the tracking?
You need the TechRing only if you want data. It measures firmness, quality, duration and nighttime erections and shows insights in the app, for $275. The Performance Ring gives in-the-moment support for $60 with nothing to charge. Men interested in tracking sexual or heart health signals pick the TechRing; men who just want performance usually pick the Performance Ring.
Read this answer in the FAQWhy does the TechRing cost more than the Performance Ring?
The TechRing costs $275 because it contains sensors, a rechargeable battery and Bluetooth, and it measures erection firmness, quality and duration, including nighttime erections, with insights in the FirmTech app. The Performance Ring gives the same kind of in-the-moment support for $60 but tracks nothing. If you only want firmer, longer erections, you do not need to pay for tracking.
Read this answer in the FAQHow is a FirmTech ring different from a basic silicone ring?
FirmTech rings are designed with urologists and use an anatomical peno-scrotal fit that loops around both the base and the testicles, with adjustable hook-and-latch tension. They are medical-grade, latex-free, HSA/FSA eligible and covered by a warranty. When comparing any ring, look at the material, whether the tension adjusts, and how long it is rated to be worn.
Read this answer in the FAQHow long can you wear an erection ring?
It depends on the ring. Thirty minutes is the general rule patients are told to follow, according to a menMD provider newsletter, which adds that the FirmTech device is made of a material that lets blood move in and out, making longer wear safe. FirmTech rates the Performance Ring and TechRing for up to 12 hours and the tighter MaxPR for up to 90 minutes.
Read this answer in the FAQAre there Performance Ring bundles?
Yes. The Performance Ring plus RingMate, a three-speed vibrator for her that slides onto any FirmTech ring, costs $120 instead of $129. The TechRing plus Performance Ring bundle costs $295 instead of $335, for men who want tracking on some nights and a simple ring on others. Prices are as listed on getfirmtech.com in November 2026.
