I personally would not use a phallosan as a hanger. I would get a cheap noose from Zen. You may want to add Locking Bead to it like I did. get them from hobby lobby. Start hanging with that and then use the phallosan after your hang to hold your length - as a stretcher. As you get more into hanging, then you can gran another hanger for the mix and get a clamp from PE hanger, Male Hanger, Total Man. Total Man may be the cheapest.
For using a noose - YES. start slow. Go 10 to 15 min at a low weight like 2lbs. or even 1lb the first day just to get used to things. Use the one and two pounds for a few days and get used to feelings, the usages, the tightness, the time , etc. Get used to how your glans will look and feel. It will get cold but you dont have to worry; But, if it gets purple ( and it will from time to time ) dont worry either just dont let it stay that way. Take it all off, take a couple minutes rest then hit it again. Then go up to 3lbs after a few days. A
Again, In My Personal Opinion, there is no need to get over 5lbs on a noose. I dont go over 3. I just go for more time if i can. However, every so often, you can bump the weight for like one session for the shock. but remember the scar tissue story.

YES. my erections are no longer up at all. but I knew that going into this and it never really bothered. Frankly my wife didn't seem to really notice or care either. Its bigger and thats what i wanted. haha The sex has been just fine and no real change for us. Im still early on in the healing, So I guide him in there as opposed to the old day of just poking it in.
