CSA CS factsheet?

2003-06-15 Thread Judydownmaine
I seem to remember some of the more knowledgeable members of this group
planning to put together a CS factsheet (if concensus were possible.)
Whatever happened to this idea? Did I miss something? Some of our newbies
questions indicate an on-going need.

2003-06-15 Thread Ode Coyote
 I'd be a little concerned about day after day, month after month of 
condensation forming in the sockets.  It probably won't hurt 
anything...but, it'll never dry out either.
 I know two people who insist on doing just that and no problems so far 
after a year..but.  Hummm


 I can see a possibility that if water were to build up in there that some 
of the socket material could plate from one to the other and eventually 
build up a conductive track that could throw the gen off and maybe even 
leak down into the CS batch.


 I'd let the thing dry out between batches.

to go for the next batch. I'm curious to see if that has any effect at

Re: CSppm lab results and quirks

2003-06-15 Thread Ode Coyote


  Welcome to the wonderful world of infallable science where no two labs 
can agree on anything and no two processes even come close.
 A PWT  only reads ions for sure...maybe correctly and maybe not.  Depends 
on what lab results you compare the readings to.


 Do let us know what the titration lab comes up with that they're happy 
with.  At least they admit there might be an error.  That alone is a rarity.

Hi!
I'm getting some confusing results here, from lab tests for ppm of

they cannot measure for particulate silver with the technique.  Another

telling me this is inaccurate and they'll repeat the procedure.  But
they're doing some titration process, which presumably does account for
particulate silver.

Is it true that atomic absorption will only measure ions?  Does anybody
know of some kind of simplified information that list all the various

Re: CSRe Heating CS

2003-06-15 Thread S J Young
Andy  Ed,

Why spend all the energy and time trying to concentrate CS?  Just drink more
of it, either larger quantities, or probably better, drink the same amount
more frequently.  This is guaranteed to get more product into your system,
whereas the only sure way to know if you have successfully concentrated CS
is to have it analyzed by a lab.  Then you have to worry about stability -
will the stronger product start agglomerating and form larger particles, or
start plating out on the storage container?

If you do try to boil down a batch, be sure to do it in a pyrex or other
glass/ceramic container, not a metal one.  If you are trying to concentrate
the product to reduce shipping costs, then I recommend just ship a
generator, and let the remote person make his own.

Hi Tony,

I got a bit more serious about measuring the thickness and discovered the 2
inner electrodes are actually about .008 and the outer ones are about .011
so the silver is leaving the electrodes.  The problem with measuring is that
they are so close to each other and they're also corrugated for rigidity
that I cannot get the caliper in place.  I cannot see or feel any porosity.

Re: CSquestions some more. COMMENT

2003-06-15 Thread Brooks Bradley

Dear Hank,
			In all probability colloidal silver will not be of direct assistance 
in overcoming the particular insult you are addressing.  However, I 
believe a course of Cetyl Myristoleate (CMO) may offer some genuine 
value. Organized medicine has, to my knowledge, failure to isolate a 
single cause for this type of osseous deterioration . However, I believe 
that Diehl, et al, were successful in addressing
hip dysplasia in experimental dog researches.back in the early days 
of evaluating CMO (circa 1980s).
			If it was MY dog, I would start him, immediately, on 3 to 5 grams of 
CMOdaily.for at least 20 days.  Additionally, I would give him 
4000 mg of Gluscosamine Sulphate and 2400 mg of Chondroitin Sulphate. 
Additionally, I would give him an initial dose of 300 mg vitamin B-6 and 
follow with 100 mg dailyfor an extended period (30 days plus). 
There are other, less critical, things
you could do (especially Kelp, at 1 tbsp daily---mixed thoroughly in his 
food), but these I consider critical.

The reasoning is quite simpleWobbles
appears to be a disorder of continuing osseous wasting, together with 
the associated complications attending such.  Logic seems to dictate 
that stopping this circumstance (CMO has displayed to have the 
capability to turn off the Renegade T-4 cells which appear to destroy 
live tissue in the articulating joints of the bodies of higher 
mammals) is paramount.  Until and unless this is accomplished, the 
prognosis for halting the progression appears quite dim.

Dobermans and German Shepards seem to be most 
prone to this insult.
If MY DOG was displaying evidence of pain, I would  put
him on 2 heaping teaspoons, daily, of granulated alfalfa.  We have 
enjoyed wonderful success with this protocol (for both pain and 
mobility), when utilized to address hip dysplasia..in our 
experimental researches.  The effect upon unstable, pain-ridden 
sufferers has been.in many cases.simply miraculous.

Sincerely,  Brooks Bradley.

CSAdditional Comment on Dog Wobbles post

2003-06-15 Thread Brooks Bradley

Dear List Members,
I feel compelled to make a post-script to my earlier message.  It 
relates to the general diets of our canine pets.
			I am not alone in my conviction that diet is a crucial consideration 
in the general health of dog companions.  Some researchers, from among 
those I consider most knowledgeable, are convinced that a majority of 
degenerative changes occurring among our general canine 
populationfinds a principal cause in NUTRITIONAL 
deficiencies.not just in premature aging or traumatic disruption.
One factor appears evident.degeneration of the cervical structure 
appears to be self-perpetuatingonce it becomes manifest.
			Altering the diet of canines toward a more natural, unprocessed, 
intake seems to encourage a general improvement in all aspects of 
general health/vitality and toward idealizing body mass.
			Thanks to the suggestions posted on the web site of a fine gentleman 
by the name of Langsley T. Russell (a one-time member of the silver 
list...maybe even still is), we instituted a version of his recommended 
BARF diet.with SPECTACULAR results.  Our family dogs (most 
especially the older, less active, ones) have benefitted 
wonderfully---from our adopting a Bones and Raw Food based diet. 
Additionally, it has proved to be less expensive (in real terms)most 
especially when one considers the reduction in sickness and its 
attendant vet costs.
Originally, we instituted this type of diet to address the obesity 
of some of our older adult dogs.  We were overjoyed at the unexpected 
side-effects of berautiful hair coats and youthful vitality which returned.

Langsley is a pronounced fan of
colloidal silver, and pays handsome tribute to its effectivenessand 
makes very complimentary reference to some of our list membership, 
especially some of our CS Generator makers.  Langsley's website contains 
some most useful information on such things as his opinion on the Heart 
Worm situation, parasites in general and Colloidal Silver.  For those 
interested in referring to his website, I include the urlit is

Http://www.bullovedbulldogs.com
Although I do not know him personally, I have corresponded, at some 
length via email. with him.  I found him to be erudite and most 
ingratiatingly pleasant.  His comments on heartworms

I found quite fascinating.
Please forgive this lengthy post.
Sincerely,  Brooks Bradley.

CSCurrent Regulation - Constant Voltage?

2003-06-15 Thread Frank Cindy Welch
Ooops  The anode is the one with the little  plus sign, right?  I always 
get 'em mixed up!


I am gonna try the shoelace trick.

I got this suggestion for my current regulation problem.  Looks like I 
need to make a trip to Radio Shack.



recommend using the LM334.
This will let you regulate currents way below 1 ma, should you choose to do
so, whereas the LM317 and other voltage regulators usually cannot regulate
current reliably below a few ma.

LM334s are available for less than $1 from mail order parts houses, e.g.
www.Jameco.com .  A 330 ohm resistor will set the constant current to about
0.2 ma.  If you search for LM334 (e.g. with Google, etc.) you can find and
download data sheets that tell you how to calculate a resistor value for a
given current.  Or, just put a 22 ohm resistor in series with a 500 ohm
potentiometer and set the current to whatever you want.  Put a milliamp
meter in series with the wire to one of the electrodes and set the current
by adjusting the pot, using already brewed CS as your current load.

With adjusting the current to 1.2 - 1.6 milamp per sq in of  anode area 
should prevent the sludge buildup?


My power supply cuts into constant current mode about an hour into the 
brew cycle( but is still too high.)   I start out at 30 VDC and when the 
brew is reading 12-13 on the PWT the voltage is being throttled down to 
18-20 VDC. 

If I use this LM334 curent limiter for a preset current to the brew 
cell,  I will need to set my power supply to provide more amperage than 
my curretn setup, thius preventing the unit from entering the constant 
current mode.  Thus I will be using a steady voltage throughout the 
process.  Is 30 VDC the place to start?  I can adjust from 0-32 VDC with 
this unit.


Thanks for keeping me on my toes!!
