Mike, Current / recent discussion on excess current causing a 'cloudy' resulting product should be taken into consideration in defining your recommended 'standard' setup... in light of comments (with which I agree) that limiting current may produce a better product, I would suggest that 36 volts with no current limiting (ballast bulb) may run at an undesirably high current level; it is not a system I would personally presently use or suggest as a standard - but then, it's not me who's moderating this list or defining your tests.. I'd like to suggest that having some samples examined initially from some various setups before trying to define a "standard setup" might serve the purposes more closely; then proceed to define this 'standard setup' based on test results / observations. If a product made with a 36 volt no-ballast/current limiting can test best, then recommend it after the tests. Just my thoughts... good to see a lot of interest!

The assumption here is that agglomerations of silver particles, which have made contact with the negatively charged electrode and consequently gained an electron / been stripped of their positive ionic charge, might revert into very small, positively charged ionic silver particles again but will the ideal actually happen? The thought that occurs to me is: It's also possible that all that would result is that *the weak attraction* between the negatively charged electrode and the particles of reduced 'silver sludge', which holds them in place, would be reversed, repelling this residue back into the water in it's charge-stripped state... IF positively charged silver ions, of a very small particle size, are what Becker's work seems to indicate are the most biologically active form of silver for our use, then suspended non-charged particles may not be quite as desirable in our product... Considering that silver chloride and silver carbonate solutions are still being made and used by many, who still seem to report positive effects, we're left with the underlying question, "IS the positively charged ionic silver particle the most desirable to produce *exclusively* in our 'home brew' efforts? > This is a well put statement of the possible advantage.

The positively charged electrode forms a black (silver oxide?) coating; will changing the charge on the electrode cause the oxygen to un-bond with the silver, or will it instead simply repel smaller silver oxide particles (too fine to easily identify) back into the water? I tend to expect that the latter is the case. Avoiding re-dispersal of accumulated products from the surface of the electrodes seems advisable; once they've gone through a reaction in contact with one of the electrodes, current reversal may *not* provide the desired reversal of that reaction, but instead simply propel them away from those surfaces, to be suspended in the water. This subject, therefore, may need further study. I'm inclined personally to not reverse the polarity at this time. If a methodology is available to analyze the resulting product, this would be interesting to investigate further, but I am unsure what means for testing would actually be required...

John, If you are actually acid then the ion mineral water will help, if you are already alkaline, it will only make you worse. If you have pH paper, test your urine and saliva 2 hours after eating. You can drink water up to about 30 minutes before testing, but don't eat or drink anything else for two hours. Don't chew gum, or kiss a woman who is wearing lipstick. That will alter the saliva pH. Now, both the urine and saliva reading should be in the range of 6.3 to 6.6, if they are not, you need to work on it. If you can do the pH test, and you get some other reading, let me know and I'll tell you how to fix it. Hope this helps!

a haha!
Dear Candace, Hi! Just thought you`d enjoy this one!! Mush THREE JEWISH SONS Three sons of a Yiddish Mama left their homeland, went abroad and prospered. They discussed the gifts they were able to give their old mother. AVRAHAM, the first, said:"I built a big house for our mother." MOISHE, the second, said: "I sent her a Mercedes with a driver." DAVID, the youngest, said: "You remember how our mother enjoys reading the bible. These days she can't see very well. I sent her a remarkable parrot that recites the whole bible... Mama just has to name the chapter and verse and the parrot will recite it word for word. It took many years to train this parrot and it is quite rare." Soon thereafter, a letter of thanks came from their mother. AVRAHAM, she said, the house you built is so huge. I live only in one room, but I have to clean the whole house! MOISHE, she said, I am too old to travel. I stay most of the time at home so I rarely use the Mercedes. And that driver has shpilkas -- he's a pain in the tuchas. But DAVID, she said, THE CHICKEN WAS DELICIOUS.

Since we've yet to make the "standard" CS that standard, we're not really ready to check out more complicated options like this. My first goal is to understand and document the *simplest* system. Later I fully hope to compare various techniques like switching, current limiting, and that sort of thing. So you're on the right track. We've got plenty to learn. Be well, Mike D.

It did If it makes the bacteria more active then I "think" that might be a good sign. The reason is that each bacteria has a life cycle. Say one bacteria's life cycle is 3 days. That is from birth, reproduction, and death in a time span of 3 days. So what happens if you speed up that cycle to 1 day. You have birth and death so fast that it doesn't have time to reproduce. Some of the articals that I have talk about certian RF frequencys doing the same thing. On the other hand though, it could be a bad thing if they are fast enough to reproduce in that time frame.

Why stop the process, when a timer chip could switch electrode polarity automatically, as used in Bob Beck's circuit ? And if you wanted to try it manually, you could use a DPDT switch. If you did build a 'Beck device', did you use it to make CS ? If yes, did the electrodes stay 'cleaner' ? > What would you be making > if you had some of the black buildup on both electrodes??? How do you know there would be _any_ black buildup -- the reversal of polarity might 'unbuild' the black buildup, molecule by molecule, while you relax. All I'm suggesting is that nobody seems to have investigated, or at least reported, on this. And even if there was some amount of black buildup on two electrodes, there still may be significant advantages. (Is there a reason it should be hazardous to have silver oxide on two electrodes, rather than only one ?) It seems possible that some of the gray silver particles which collect on the cathode would be quickly converted to CS, each time the cathode switched and became the anode -- thus improving the net efficiency of CS production by up to several hundred percent. Likewise, the black silver oxide on the 'anode' (now cathode) might be rapidly converted into CS plus H2O. Thus leaving both electrodes relatively 'clean'. Seems worth a try.

More Cs and Acidophilus Testing
? I was sent a sample of commercial CS, and I did some tests with it today. I hope this will be of help to someone. I still will have to do a lot more testing, and one of these days I need to learn to grow bad bacteria to test with. I keep learning, and I will see even more come from this research as I progress. Hang in there, we will all learn something from what I have discovered and will discover in the future. Jim Einert, N.D.> __ Jim; Thanks for your valuable info. Keep up the good work. I am jealous, do not have a microscope yet. Very Grateful, chc PS: Thanks for the idea of saliva and urine testing for Ph. Did not think of it In the past, I have not found them to be that reliable. Possibly because So many people I see have multiple organ involvement and the pH testings of saliva and urine don't help me figure what organ is compensating for what, whereas the arterial blood gases tell me what is respiratory and what is metabolic!

High Potency CS and Lyme
Dear John J; I have been using commercial 30 ppm CS from Source Naturals for my Lyme, which I have had for 39 yrs. When I muscle test, it tests strong on the Lyme point. When I try our homemade (And we are rank amateurs at this) it does not make the reflex strong. In fact it weakens other reflexes on my body, indicating possible contaminates. I amnow taking 1 swig of 30 ppm every 6 hours and have been doing that, building up gradually, because I was Herxing at 2 teaspoons 2 x a day when I started nearly 2 weeks ago on the CS only. (I would not take CS with antibiotics, IMHO) I believe I will need 100 ppm every 4 hours for a month or two to remove most of the Lyme. (I am not sure it will remove the Lyme in the brain and CNS or kill off the dormant phase Lyme either) But until I get a darkfield microscope, I may never know for sure. Although I am not into herbs, I have always had great results with homeopathics, a colleague of mine put together some herbs, that were tested using infected ticks. That formula, I'm being a guinea pig here, made me herz so bad, after about 10 days, I became seriously depressed and suicidal. (Don't remember feeling that bad when I was paralyzed by Lyme before.) I am studying it and seeing what I can do to balance out the diruption of the brain chemistry to see how to allay that serious side effect. I have ordered 100 ppm Ionic Silver from waterOZ. I will be testing and scoring it this week on my Lyme reflex. I will keep you posted if it is good. In the meantime, I am posting this openly hoping that someone out there will be able to help us in making high potency CS, instead of having to shell out $1000 for a machine that I do not even can deliver!!! Most people with Lyme do not have the money to risk the $1000. Let's pray. Take Care, chc -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
