It's perfectly fine to question (heaven knows I've made my share of mistakes). One of them was that when I placed the silver electrode wires in the DW in the wrong way, I got silver flakes in the water. Since I don't filter (whether it's through lack of experience, not having filters, or simply being disinclined to), I tossed the batch and started over. Wrong placement of wires was the only reason ever for my having to throw out a batch. The "wrong way" of silver wire placement, for me, was the following: 1) placing the wires closer than about 2 inches to each other; 2) not having the wires quite parallel to each other, so that they're at an angle; and 3) allowing the wires to either touch or be too close to the sides or bottom of the glass measuring container. My CS generator uses a 9 volt battery. I hope this clarifies things. N Silver -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
