  1. Should a condom catheter be donned while erect?
  2. Is it customary to don the condom at home before the dive, or at the dive site?
  3. Anyone know of shops which sell a variety pack of different sizes and brands?
  4. Is it strange to use the verb "don" in this context?
 
1. Nope but I guess you could.
2. I do it in my vehicle but home is fine too.
3. Good question as I need a new source myself. Mine closed it doors.
4. :wink:

I don't.

I've always done it at the site. I drive for hours to get to a site and wear normal clothes for the trip. I guess you could do it at home if you wanted. No problem just peeing through the hole into a toilet should the need arise.
3. Anyone know of shops which sell a variety pack of different sizes and brands?
Cave Country dive shop does (or did, a couple years ago when I had the same need). Cave Country Dive Shop I got one of everything to see what was best.

No stranger than anything else in a discussion about condoms.

Do they offer a sampler package with one piece from each type and size???

No, they just had bulk boxes from which you could pick individual condoms in whatever size you wanted. I don't remember the price but I don't think I'd have bothered if it was very expensive.
 
Folks, get a package with "normal".
I have noe idea if my non-erect penis is a normal, and in 2 °C water its the definition of small. Regardless, between the glue and the "stretch", I'm quite sure I could use both lager and smaller caths.
 
At least here in the US, medical supply companies will generally send you samples in several sizes upon request.

There is a cardboard measuring thing that you can get from medical supply stores.
