Clive,
I am not aware that just using AC gives more colloidal particles as
opposed to ionic silver.
Depends on what you mean by AC and more. With a low voltage system, and
reversing the voltage every minute, it produces smaller particles.
Since they are smaller, then there will be more numerically than if they
were large, but the total weight of the particles may be less. Adding
stirring makes this even more so. If you are using 10 KV and 60 htz,
then it is will because of the violent movement of ions around the
electrode cause them to combine into particles more easily. But this
also limits the maximum ppm one can make with HVAC to under 10 ppm, and
you have to use freezing water with a cooler to even do that.

I do know that some people here add a small quantity of H2O2 (hydrogen
peroxide) some time after the CS is made and feel that this increases
the percentage of metallic silver particles.

Can you reference your new AC technique?
I was pointed to a site called:-
http://www.silver-colloids.com/
Which has some of the most useful and bluntest raw technical data
I've seen associated with colloidal silver. It indicated that most
simple DC silver preparation tends to produce ionic silver as opposed
to the proper useful silver suspension associated with a colloidal
liquid.
A quick skim over the 'net showed simple AC units using just a
transformer connected to the electrodes with no current limiting,
while other more sophisticated units described using AC but with
fluid conduction monitoring to shut off the current when the desired
conductivity was reached.
I wonder if there is an optimum frequency for the fastest and most
stable preparation of good colloidal silver with a high ratio of
actual metal in suspension as opposed to the electron stripped ionic
silver.
Would perhaps 1Hz or even 0.01Hz be better? 50/60Hz would be ideal,
since it comes that way out the box so to speak.
