I'm not too sure I'd use silver chloride in an ultrasonic unit. If, on the slight chance, the ultrasonic unit could disassociate even a tiny part of the AgCl into elemental silver and chlorine gas, you could be in for a nasty surprise. Chlorine gas is fairly deadly. -- Dean -- from (almost) Des Moines -- KB0ZDF -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.

It's not good because you made a batch of garbage. Did you not see Ole Bob's reply to your earlier post? If it is milky after just a few minutes, it is junk. Are you using tap water to make this in? And then adding potassium chloride? Start with PURE distilled water. Even then, some brands are worthless. You should see darn near NOTHING happening for the first 10 minutes. I wouldn't even put that garbage into an ultrasonic humidifier, let alone breathe it in. I wouldn't even drink it, and probably wouldn't even water a plant with it, from the description you give. Slow down, reread everything, and make sure you fully understand before you begin. No wonder Bob is sooo grumpy. -- Best regards, Solarmailto:so...@neo.rr.com -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.

Re: CS>Making 1st CS - using ppm calculator
Somewhere I read that adding a few grains of dead sea salt to the very first batch was used to get the reaction going, then later you could use a bit of the CS to "seed" it. I couldn' t find my dead sea salt, so I used a few grains of KCl instead, I used KCl over table salt so I wouldn't have any anti-caking additives or iodine. (Seemed best at the time!) I drank an ounce, and my husband did too! I thought he was under the impressions that it was just another one of my mad scientist experiments, but he's evidently been convinced as well about it's good use by what I've read to him so far. It was very metalic-y tasting, is this due to the silver chloride formed or is all CS like that? Next batch I'll not use the KCl. I'm still wanting to try to use it in my ultrasonic humidifier - Does anyone know if this may not be good because of the silver chloride? Leacy Life is Good! GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

That would speed up the process so you'd need about 10 minutes, total, for producing CS (along with AgCl). Most people would say you shouldn't put anything into the container but distilled water and silver electrodes (then, running the process for 30 minutes should produce about 8 ppm). I haven't tried the ppm calculator, so I can't say what's going wrong (the current of 10 mA seems about right for 27 volts after 10 minutes). -- Dean -- from (almost) Des Moines -- KB0ZDF -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.

I forgot, I've got 4 inches of the wire in the solution. I wiped off both wires at 35 minutes also. It's been 40 minutes now and the solution is quite murky now, like dirty bathwater. Getting darker each minute. Uugghh Are these maybe mA, not Amps? It just shows an "A" with no "m" before it on the multimeter. Leacy Life is Good! GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
