Deborah, I have never played with HV for the generation of Cs as I see no need to utilize HV when just a few volts will strip ions of silver from the electrode. It is like using a canon to trim your hedge! Dangerous and gross overkill. As to their reference that "only steam distilled water must be used to prevent producing poisons", seems to imply to me that their alternate "water" was from a ditch! To produce poisons (in quantity to be considered dangerous) you must adulturate or salt your water, in order to acheive 100's of PPM of "bad" compounds! Silver is clearly safe, so the better your water the better your product.
As previously stated, steam distilled water is often poor quality water, with upto 15PPM of contaminates, due to the entrainment of the residue water in the steam. Deionized water is never above 1PPM, being a much more controllable process and thus is a better medium to use, to get free silver ions rather then compounds. f...@health2us -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
