Hi JD et al, Around 10KV the juice gets really funny. You probably created a large capacity capacitor with the foil wrapped vessel, and became the recipient of the charge when you touched it.
I find the laser not reliable in relation to concentration. Many variables. Ambient light direction and intensity being a large one. Also the current physiology of the observer. I used to work in a photo print lab. We worked late at night. One of my co-workers sometimes had a beer with our "lunch" break. Whenever he did that, he had to crank in an addition 5 CC units of magenta into his filter pack to stay color-balanced because his perception of green light shifted with the beer. The light is not just reflected. Some is just absorbed, some is absorbed and re-emitted at a different wavelength and at different angles to the incident light, and some is just reflected---depending on lots of things. Some of them: particle size---which varies--- particle shape, particle spacing---depen dent on particle size and charge, and the wavelength of the incident light and God Knows What Else.

I operate a high voltage apparatus and would like to know more. My scientific studies were generally in the realm of organic chemistry. I did notice an interesting phenomenon. Testing out my laser pointer by aiming it through the reaction vessel in progress, I decided I would have better results by having a reflective background. I took the shiny (unoxidized) side of aluminum foil and wrapped it around the glass vessel, careful to keep it out of contact with the electrodes. In spite of these precautions I experienced a definite electrical shock while in contact with the foil wrapped around the glass. The foil was not in contact with anything other than glass. (I was hoping to see a reflection of the laser illuminate the silver in solution). I am using a 15kv HVAC CS unit I purchased (not from CSPro... they would not send it C.O.D.) j...@writeme.com -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
