There are 2 ways to get stronger CS using a SilverGen.
They can both be done together.
Put a tight bend at the very top of the electrode strips so they can be
further apart, yet still parallel. [this will shorten them a little,in effect]
Just bending them just a bit away from each other, out of parallel, will
do something too..and limit tip discharge to make the strips last longer.
[A slight bend on the lower 1/2 inch or so will do about the same without
risking the middle or top going away first ..observe and adjust ]
Re run batches after they have "stabilized" for a day or so.... once the
generator will no longer run, you will have almost doubled the strength.
Making the electrodes shorter will also make it stronger, but TOO short
will exceed the current density calculations resulting in a greater
likelihood that the CS won't be "nice" even at a lower PPM.
Addressing your primary question:
Look up "oligodynamic action" in almost any scientific tome.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oligodynamic_effect
Note that Silver is not a "heavy metal"..it's a Noble metal.
Copper and Zinc also work quite well, but unlike Silver, are
micro-nutrients that can be toxic if over done.
There is no known "toxic" dose of Silver that falls into the range of
anything reasonable or likely to happen even by accident or ignorance.
There are no "Severe Consequences", but there are a lot of misinfo parrots
that never dig for the truth.
Some Silver "compounds" can be toxic or even corrosive, but not because of
the Silver.
" <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brass>Brass doorknobs disinfect themselves
in about eight hours, while stainless steel and aluminium knobs never
do." [ Brass is a copper/zinc alloy. ]
..many hospitals are returning to the use of brass doorknobs.
Curad Brand Silver Bandaids use a silver woven fabric to release silver
ions into wounds via a battery effect with an Aluminum woven fabric using
body fluids as the electrolyte...a mini CS generator.

Since this is my first post, Ill introduce myself by saying I have my own
generator, an SG6 SilverGen. I have some questions regarding getting a
stronger ppm, but for now, I have another issue which came up tonight:
I have a friend who is trying to set me straight about using colloidal
silver. Here is her email to me:
Barb,
Had some time to look up this substance on a couple of trusted websites
for herbals and other things.
This is one we use in the health region.
I had some concerns as the consequences in using this substance are severe.
Just look under the herbs section.
Take care

I cant access the site without a subscription. Has anyone heard of it?
It bothers me that she is only looking at sites her hospital uses for
research. When I told her I use colloidal for everything from a sore
throat, eye infections, cuts, use it on my animals, she told me the
placebo effect of these alternative therapies is a remarkable thing.
So I need some ammunition! Since she is very technical, a good published
study would be great!
Thanks. Barbara
