Quick answers
SmartTract vs Epic: quick answers
How do the pumping modes and saved routines compare?
SmartTract has three core pumping types: Static, Pulsating and Rapid Interval. Advanced Rapid Interval adds multi-stage patterns to programmed routines, enabling you to create unlimited custom modes rather than being limited to 10 presets. The device stores up to 10 routines at a time, including 5 preloaded routines, with up to 200 custom pressure steps per routine. Epic lists 10 built-in automatic modes and custom app patterns.
Epic Pump vs SmartTract Go: which one should you buy?
Choose Epic Pump for a one-piece design; select Water + Air if shower use matters to you. SmartTract Go is for dry air use. Its separate controller keeps safety controls within reach, and pulling the hose from the controller releases vacuum for added safety. Choose SmartTract for custom multi-step routines, a mechanical quick release alongside electronic stop, and a 2.8-inch color display. Its 7 L/min motor powers Pulsating and Rapid Interval pumping. It offers up to 14 days per charge, supports use while charging with the included adapter, and lets you control sessions from the mobile app or device. Battery runtime varies with use.
Can SmartTract Go run hands-free?
Yes. Select a saved routine and set the controller beside you. You can monitor, adjust or stop from the app or controller. Epic also advertises hands-free use, with the motor attached to the cylinder. Follow each manufacturer’s setup instructions and keep the release controls accessible.
Do I need the SmartTract app every session?
No. After a pressure pattern is saved to the device, you can select and run it from the controller. Use the app to create patterns, track progress and share patterns.
Does water pumping have any advantages?
Water-compatible pumps offer shower use for people who prefer that setup. Epic’s Water + Air version supports both dry and water sessions; its Air Only version is for dry use. SmartTract uses dry air. Water sessions add filling, draining and drying.
Does SmartTract only offer 30-day unopened returns?
No. The 30-day unopened-product return window is separate from the 180-day no-results guarantee and 1-year device warranty. The no-results guarantee requires qualifying use and app logs, refunds the device price only, and excludes consumable accessories. It is not an unconditional trial. Read the complete eligibility and claim requirements before purchase.
Does SmartTract Go include a cylinder?
The SmartTract Go Bundle compared here includes a cylinder, controller, hose, comfort pad, erection ring, lubricant, travel case, charger and quick-start guide. The device-only product is a different purchase and does not include a cylinder. Compare the kit contents as well as the price.
What does the 180-day no-results guarantee require?
SmartTract requires 20-minute sessions, 5 days a week for 180 days, with every session logged in the app. Missed sessions, incomplete logs or breaks longer than 2 consecutive days void eligibility. The guarantee refunds the device price only; consumable accessories are excluded. Standard unopened-product returns have a separate 30-day window.
How do the 180-day guarantees compare?
SmartTract publishes pump-specific session and logging requirements. Epic’s pump page advertises a 180-day guarantee, but its detailed returns policy names the Epic Extender when requiring 1–2 hours daily, app logs and monthly photos. We cannot confirm those extender conditions apply to the pump. Confirm the pump-specific terms with Epic before purchase.
