Carrole, I asked another question of the manufacturer : No problem answering your questions.
You are correct about the time. The unit has a built in TDS type sensing circuit but no read out. If the machine runs for 3 hr and shuts off you will have CS. What ppm depends upon the initial setting and the purity of the water. If you have a TDS meter measure the water before and after the run...subtract the initial reading from the final and multiply by 1.2 which will give you approx ppm of silver.

Is there any chance you have contaminated DS? This could explain the low level of CS if it is contaniminated but not bad enough to trip the water quality monitor in your generator. It could also be that the unit isn't operating correctly. I think your observations of a faint beam with the laser pointer indicates low ppm CS. Is there anything you are doing during the process, such as cleaning the electrodes that could cause contanimation? You could also try running the same batch twice if the generator will let you. With a digital multimeter you could check your setup for voltage and current: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=92020 Or get a TDS meter: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170250480664&ssPageNa me=MERC_VIC_RSCC_Pr12_PcY_BIN_Stores_IT&refitem=170239081511&itemcount=1 2&refwidgetloc=closed_view_item&usedrule1=StoreCatToStoreCat&refwidgetty pe=cross_promot_widget&_trksid=p284.m183&_trkparms=algo%3DDR%26its%3DS%2 52BI%252BSS%26itu%3DISS%252BUCI%252BSI%26otn%3D12 It might be worth the expense. - Steve ________________________________ From: Carrole Orme [mailto:captain_sun...@yahoo.ca] Sent: Friday, August 15, 2008 12:22 PM To: silver-list@eskimo.com Subject: CS>Unidentified subject! Why do you think you aren't making strong CS??? Ode Hi Ode I think I am making CS but not very strong It is very clear absolutely no fragments I use to get some It use to taste a little more metal now nothing The beam is very faint and when I had checked after the 1st few months it was quite strong also about the blackining of the rod I said or meant some blackening it was not a lot but more then now I have never seen what anyone elses looks like I would say it was not heavy You would just see some on the rod I really don't know if it was one or both rods I never payed attention to that Thanks Carrole
