Hi Julie, All that a laser pointer will tell you is that there are true colloids in the CS. One can make CS that has 20 ppm of ionic silver (almost 95% i9nic) and there is NO, T.E. even in a totally dark room. (did that yesterday) Or has Frank Key has done he has made about 95% particulate Cs

Get a laser pointer to see the TE. This can be just one of those pen type lasers? The less the TE, the more close the meter will read to the actual silver content. I still need the PPM thingy then also. This is the best way to do home PPM testing? I could send a sample to a lab, but

The meters put out by Hanna Instruments and the like measure only the ionic content of CS. They're not worthless but they don't tell you PPM either. If you send a sample to a lab and record some idea of the TE [Tyndal Effect] and take a meter reading first, you might be able to have an 'idea' of

A Hannah PWT will give you a close approximation. It's about the best you can do without spending big $. At least that seems to be the general consensus, with one or two notable dissenters. I have one, and it agrees with my expected results. It is better than nothing at all, although it
