TDS only measures ionic silver. The ASAP product is mostly metallic
silver in colloidal form. So very low conductivity. You would need
a different (and more expensive) analytical method to determine the
total Ag in the ASAP.
No, its supposed to be largely ionic. (In fact its 96% ionic
according to http://www.silver-colloids.com/Reports/cpr05/cpr_05.html).
Its true there can be a significant transition from conductive ions
to non conductive particles, but still, if you are paying for ions
you're not getting them.
The other answer is that there were not many ions there in the first
place. If the ions have combined to create particles then you should
have a strong TE. Check the TE with a laser. If you have no TE and
only 3 ppm then you've been ripped off.
By the way, you have to at least double what it says on the meter if
you are using a TDS meter.
