To all interested list members. I have been
reluctant to enter this discussion, but since we have some actual, objective
data on this issue, I will break my covenant of silence. I do this knowing that
many on the list do not possess the discretionary funds required to have
multiple electron microscope runs performed (@ $120.00 each). In 1997 we had a
number of specimens examined under electron microscopy, at an independent
laboratory. Among these were 27 vdc (using batteries), 36 vdc (regulated ), 28
vdc (regulated power supply), 18 vdc (reg. pwr supply), 12 vdc (reg.pwr.
supply), 10,000 vac, 1000 vac; generated using COLD (35 DEGREES F..), ROOM
TEMP (80 DEGREES F.), and HOT (180 DEGREES F.). ALL RESULTS were so similar,
that NO visible differention was possible.....using the unaided human eye.
since the magnification was in excess of 100K, most of the discussion is---at
least to us---moot.
I do not mean to be confrontational/adversarial in this
matter. These are just our findings. Others may have data which contravenes
ours. If so, I would be most appreciative of receiving their commentary.
Sincerely. Brooks.
