Happy AMS 800 AUS user asks how to use pump questions?

I had my AUS AMS 800 activated Wednesday. So far, so good. For the most part I am dry with only a few drips happening occasionally. Even played 9 holes of golf and underwear was only a tad damp. Did not wear a pad.

Last evening before and after dinner I had some leakage. I suspect it was due to not emptying complety after urinating and before cuff closed back but not sure. I would appreciate any user tips and answers to the following questions:

When you uninate do you squeeze the pump one time or multiple times? Book says several times until completely flat.

How long do you wait until you empty or before pulling your pants back up after you finish urinating?

Do you use two hands or have you mastered a one handed technique? Little devil seems to slip between the fingers at times.

Do you sit or stand?

Do you wear a protective pad/liner to catch any residual urine? All the time or only when doing stressful activity.

Any hints, tips or tricks about efficient usage would be appreciated. Have seen some past posts on the above but it's been a while and need fresh information.

tallguy,

I have been activated for over a year. Here are my answers:

I squeeze the bulb one time for a few seconds. It takes about 30 seconds for the AUS to cycle closed. If my bladder still feels full, I'll squeeze again. For some reason, squeezing the bulb until it's flat and waiting until I am sure that the urethra has been shut back down doesn't appeal to me and seems to take forever, even though it's only a couple of minutes.

I still use two hands. I find it difficult to one-hand it, although I try from time to time.

Depending on what I am wearing and where I am "going" and how full my bladder feels, I will sit or stand.

I still wear a thin pad to catch my dribbles when I sneeze or cough real hard.
