I finally tried making some colloidal silver last night.
I used a coffee carafe with 10 cups of distilled water in it,
on a hot plate designed for coffee carafe's.
I don't know how hot the hot plate gets the water.
My 99.9% pure, 16 gauge round wire, silver electrodes are 6 inches long,
with 1 inch folded over so that I can hang them over the side of the carafe.
I used three 9-volt batteries in series, producing slightly more than 28 VDC,
as the power source. I used a multimeter, on the DC Amps setting, to measure
the current draw, and I let it 'cook' until it reached 8 milliamps
(per someone's suggestion on this mailing list). This took around one hour.
During operation, only one electrode produced bubbles. But both
electrodes had black stuff on them after I took them out of the water.
I thought only one electrode would have this stuff on it...
Any comments?
How small of a flashlight do you need to see the 'Tyndal' effect?
I shined a light through the CS and I didn't see anything, except a few
flakes of silver. Any comments?
What coffee filters/other filters are safe to use to filter out the
big chunks? Some filters are treated with chemicals, and I don't want
to use those... Any suggestions?
The plans, for the CS generator that I built, included a 28 VDC 40 milliamp
light bulb, but none of the local electronics stored carried one of these.
Anyone who knows what they are talking about know what would make a good
replacement? Could I just use a normal LED? How much current do these normally
draw?
I don't (yet) have a TDS-1 yet, so I can't (yet) measure the PPM of the CS
that I have produced.
Thanx,
fred
