Thanks for posting the technical stuff. I am only four months into chastity and still have not found something I can wear more than a couple of days; balls burning or one of them escapes. I currently wear a Kink3D cobra cage and curved ring. I guess the curved ring helps with ball gap, but I can still experience burning that is alleviated almost immediately upon removal of cage alone. Your hypothesis of pudenal nerve pinching would explain what I experience. I try pulling the ring “up” or maximizing the amount of scrotum pulled through the ring for some relief. I downsized the ring recently after finding the cage & ring sitting in my jockeys while in the bathroom stall at work after riding my motorcycle in that morning. A few anxious moments wondering if anyone noticed the bulge in my pocket as I walked back to hide it my motorcycle jacket. Now wearing only a few hours at a time while I wait for a delivery from Blackout Devices.
I'm still bending my cheap amazon rings to find the fit. Honestly, it's getting very frustrating and I have yet to find a ring/gap combo that I can handle for more than 3 hours before I have the dreaded flambe de testes...
My last iteration is a 54mm ring bent to create a 20mm gap. I made it a whopping 90 minutes before I had to remove. I've squeezed into as small as 47 and 49mm rings with 20mm gap but those turn my gnads a color we don't want.
Am I crazy to keep moving the ring size up? Or should I stop at 54mm and increase the gap first? Playing with two variables feels like I'll never find the solution.
Yeah, the two variables things is a real pain. No pun intended. That's why I suggest nailing the ring size without the cage. You should be able to wear a properly fitting ring without the cage indefinitely and hardly ever notice its presence. Have you tried wearing rings alone? What was the smallest comfortable size?
And when you say the 47 and 49 mm rings cause a color change, is that while flaccid or erect? And is that with the cage or without? I certainly get color change with the cage when erect but not otherwise. So..
Ring only, flaccid: Comfortable, no change to color
Ring only, erect: Tight, almost uncomfortable with pressure on the side of my shaft mainly (round ring), no change to color, veiny.
Ring and cage, flaccid: Comfortable, no change to color
Re: Color change-- the bean bag is darker with 47mm and 49mm rings. I have not tried to become erect while wearing any ring but I'm pretty confident that both the 47 and 49mm would either greatly hinder or outright my ability to get fully erect.

Good luck with the Evo – they've been having some issues with their supply chain. In the meanwhile, try this: https://www.reddit.com/r/chastitytraining/comments/1ox7uls/k3d_ball_gap_adjust_instructions/.
He has a similar post in r/kink3d and I know KD was very interested.
Now, opening the ball gap more _will_ make escape more likely which is why I advocate for such a small ring.
But hey, I'm happy to talk about it more if you want to hit me up in chat.

I have not tried to wear a ring by itself.
