Hello Frances,

No it doesn't work as well as some manufactured generators. It does work however. Current control, voltage, stirring the mix, wetted depth of electrodes, electrode spacing, timing, temperature, amount of water used, type of water used and surface area of the electrodes all affect the outcome.

You will have to exercise lots of control to end up with consistent batches of CS if you use 3 batteries or the equivalent in a manufactured generator. It is problematic to do it that way from the repeatability and end product results.

You can make CS from the ridiculous to the sublime.

Check us out for an different type alternative to home-made CS.

Does this process work as good as using
an already-manufactured generator?
Where do you buy the silver wires/rods?

Dear Hope, Hi! Here`s the CS making info for you. I sure hope CS helps you
as well as it did me!

Here`s how to make CS:
You`ll need 3 nine-volt batteries, (if you can afford the Lithiums they last
4 times longer than the alkalines do.)
2 alligator clips, the ones with two clips on either end of a plastic coated
wire, 2 sets actually, which you can buy at Radio Shack,
2 pieces of .999 fine silver wire, 14 gauge, 5 inches long,
2 cups of distilled water in a glass measuring cup.
Now connect the batteries together, one snapped upside down onto the tops
of the other two. This leaves two empty posts, a positive and a negative.
Connect a clip to each post, and the other ends to the silver wires.
Rinse the cup with distilled water to remove any dust or residue.
Drop the wires into the distilled water, leaving the clips out of the water.
Have the wires remain about one inch apart, with 4 inches in the water. They
like to float around, so it can be a bit tricky. Some folks wrap theirs
around a chopstick or pencil and balance that across the cup. A bend in the
top of the wires works too.
Don`t worry about being shocked, it doesn`t.
Time for a half-hour, and check the wires. If you see bubbles forming on one
wire, it is working! The golden clouds is the forming Colloid.
After 45 minutes, wipe the black stuff off the wires. This is silver oxide
from the oxygen released by the process. It is harmless, I understand, just
ugly.
Replace the wires for another half hour. You now have Colloidal Silver!
Wipe the wires again, disconnect the batteries, and store them away, I use a
ziplock bag. Pour the finished CS into a hard plastic or glass bottle. Don`t
refrigerate. I take 3 big swallows a day for active infections, or one as a
preventive. I also use it topically, and in my eyes for conjunctivitis.
Do expect to start feeling really sick as the bugs begin to die off. The
silver literally explodes the little nasties, and the gunk inside makes us
sick while the body cleans it out. This is called a Herx, short for
Jarisch-Herxheimer Reaction. It`ll last for a couple of days. Drink lots of
water, and keep away from caffeine and alcohol, to help the body to clean
itself out.
  Good luck!!!
Marsha
