Well, it's been awhile since I've been in regular practice, but the echo effects never go away. They do tend to become less frequent and intense when I haven't practiced in a while, but nonetheless never disappear. Last night was a breakthrough for me though, and I hadn't even had a practice in a week or two :-D

Maybe doing some prostate stim helped trigger it, but I awoke in the night last night to a familiar "buzzing" echo effect in my hands. I just lied there and enjoyed it, and thought about the feeling spreading and becoming more intense. Which it did. My hand was soon buzzing much more intensely - what I would call an 'orgasmic' level - and then unexpectedly extremely pleasurable feelings of "expanding outward" started pulsating up my arm! A new echo!

Well at this point I was feeling very good and continued to let them happen. They died down and started up maybe another three times before I rolled over and decided to go back to sleep. The echo felt like a ring around my arm that was expanding into an explosion, and the ring moved from my hand to my shoulder and back. They were about as intense as what I called an orgasm in an early post - although that session felt more intense than pleasurable. This is the first experience with echoes that felt definitely pleasurable, as opposed to simply different or there. Not that I'm knocking the other feelings - I loved getting them and thought they were cool, but these are decidedly more exciting :-D

Am wondering what triggered a new echo response last night. Prostate stim? Maybe it's part of those hot spots that Jack recommends exploring. Either way, I'm sure more exploration is warranted :-D
