Particle size goes up with current, down with voltage. If you assume that they are both linear (which they probably are not, but for simplicity sake), then if we assume that at 9 volts 1 mA is good, then at 5,000 volts then slightly over 1/2 amp would be just as good. And the process should be slightly over 500 times faster. The big problem would be temperature, which would rise quite quickly with that energy input. I use 10 KV (AC) at 100 to 125 mA myself to produce very high quality CS at the rate of 4 gallons per hour, which which is 20 quarts in 60 minutes, and is a quart every 3 minutes, the same as reported by Duncan Crow. I suspect that the main difference is that I operate mine at optimum full current continuously (since it is a flow through process), but that Duncan starts out with much lower current sine his is a batch process, thus requiring a higher current in the end, but the average current over the 3 minutes is probably about the same. And I use AC which is gives 100% silver utilization. Marshall -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
