I guess it's appropriate for me to chime in. I have made ionic silver as high
as 50+ PPM using the SG7 as measured with a Hanna PWT meter. Some is stored in
glass and some in 2 liter cola bottles. It was measured at 45+ PPM. A couple
of them have a slight golden color indicating a small amount of agglomeration.
I use vigorous water movement to avoid what Mike M calls the Nernst layer. If
it's there it is certainly very thin.
I check them every couple of years and some have drifted down a small amount.
I relate microsiemens directly to PPM, having correlated them many years ago by
lab analysis. It tuned out that 1 uS equals 1 PPM. That's when we started
sell the meters for use as ionic/colloidal silver PPM meters.
We distilled our well water using a Barnstead lab still. As I recall the water
was under 1 microsiemen.
There is a minor amount of fallout besides the small drop in PPM. No plateout
so we Consider the water as having unlimited shelf life. It is about 11 years
old now.

Subject: Re: CS>The Silvercell process?
It could be, though I am also skeptical. Natural Immunogenics for example
only has 23PPM with all their years of work. And that is also suspiciously
close to one hypothetical upper bound of roughly 26PPM (13PPM silver oxide, 13
PPM silverhydroxide). This lends credence to that hypothetical upper bound
(without using ultra low current density like Mike is doing, that is).
How is the 40PPM measured on the SilverGen? A built in meter? Short of
getting a batch lab-analyzed, the correctness and relevance of the reading that
that meter gives would need to be validated. The conductance drop over time
after the batch is finished would also need to be viewed. Also visible
plateout or fallout. Also potential contamination sources.

Would you mind sharing more details on this? How small must the batch be?
How pure must the water be?

Anyway, I've made 40+ ppm CS with a Silverpuppy in the past. Its not that
hard. Its just a matter of using very pure water and keeping the batch size
small. Trem has also said he's made 40+ with a Silvergen. Mike would dispute
this of course.
