I dropped a base ring size 2 nights ago with my CB6000s.
Both nights I woke in pain 3 times the first night and 4 times last night.
On all occasions I had to get up and go to the toilet so as to relive my hardon.
Should I go back up to my original base ring or persist with the smaller size, I prefer the feel of the smaller size through the day

Re: ball burn
You did not say specially where the pain was but if the burn is on the bottom of the scrotum, I have put a dab of moisturizing lotion on my fingertip and massaged it into the area of the base ring. It did provide some relief but take care not to use too much.

Re: ball burn
I cant get away with a smaller ring. I have even enlarged the large ring somewhat with a dremel tool. I can wear the next size down during the day for a bit, but beyond that, it just makes the skin so raw I have to take a break from my cb, which I hate doing.

Re: ball burn
I go back and forth between a 2 ring and a 3 ring. One of the biggest problems is what mood my balls are in. Sometimes they are really up high, other times, they are hanging very low. 

Re: ball burn
it only got me up once last night so maybe the worst is behind me.
i do love the burn i get from time to time through the day when you move in different positions

Re: ball burn
Your body needs time to adjust to any change in the device. If you have the right fit it will eventually feel perfectly comfortable. I wore a cb6000s for six months straight after adjusting several times to get it right. Typically I found myself reducing in size for comfort rather than increasing - but we're all different. My habit is to run some lotion around the inside of the base ring every morning. I do remember having to do this more frequently in the beginning. When I switched to a Steelheart, same thing. Some burn for a few days, now nothing at all.

Re: ball burn
Yes, lotion is the key to the device (yes pun intended). What I found what worked over the long haul is try the smallest ring comfortably and the longest pin. then decrease ring size over time.
Re: ball burn
yeah with the 6000s i am on the second smallest ring size and the smallest spacer, i want full lock down
