Heya Dean, All...

There are two things I don't like about the 777 machine...

One, is that the silver strips cannot be precision aligned...  not easily,
and I don't see them paying any attention to that fact or recommending
careful consideration.  Apparently they reverse the polarity which will:

1) mask the fact the silver is not being evenly drawn from the silver
electrodes

2) compensate for not having a stirring device

Another thing that bothers me about the design, is having the electrodes so
close to the rim of the container.  This is going to change the current
travel, as there will be increased conductivity along the rim of the whole
container.  I'm not certain if this is negative, but it IS one more needless
variable in a process that should be engineered to eliminate variables.

I certainly applaud the efforts of the company.  It's a good machine.

But if you take a look at their bacterial studies, you'll see they did 30
minute interpretations.  I wonder why.  It's probably just be due to lack of
experience; I believe those 30 minute studies are very common for water
innoculation tests.  30 minute interpretations are useless in gauging
possible effectiveness in the human body, with the one exception of the
intestinal tracts.  to be convinced, I'd like to see how effective it is
between 1 and 7 minutes.

Even so, the dilutions that they used showed that the generator makes an
effective colloidal silver.

When dealing with the "little variables", you're never going to be able to
visually tell the difference; meters won't tell the difference either.  You
won't be able to measure it in fallout.  Likely, the only way you're going
to know there is a difference is if you work from a theoretical standpoint,
or you have highly advanced lab tools to utilize to study the process during
production, or have both TEM and AAS work done on the end product.

These differences do show up, however, through TEM analysis...

Reverse polarity is a great idea...  However, from the experience shared on
the list over the last year or so ( I haven't myself yet designed a device
with reverse polarity ), if you don't time it right it has undesireable
consequences.

So what I see is they have great circuitry that they've employed to try to
compensate for variables they could be easily managing with simple design
changes.

Viewing their instructions, it is clear they have problems with ion
"hydration" - which doesn't surprise me...  They suggest that one allows the
sol to stabilize for 36 hours after production.  Of course, there is always
going to be an "adjustment" to the sol after production.  But the magnitude
of the adjustment is a factor of the end quality of the CS.

They suggest that the device be covered, which I think is always a good
idea.  Likely, it should be included in the design.  I have yet to see a
generator manufacturer provide a sealed  environment, which would be key to
manage the gassing variables in production.

There's one reason I always suggest that people spend some time with the
nine-volt battery method of production...  The crudeness of the setup allows
one to witness many of the variables involved.  These variables don't change
as one builds a better generator, they just become invisible.  What I would
do is shoot one hour to 90 minute films on the process.  Then, I would
process the digital video into fast motion, so I could see the entire
production process in a few short minutes, and watch the patterns.  Do the
same thing with laser light to watch the dispersion of particles.

I wish all the manufacturers would stress the "purity principle" in
production!  You literally have to scour the production vessel to produce
the best brew with any CS device.

The highest level of control I've been able to maintain over the reaction
( by using the same filming methods described above, then adjusting the
process ) is with Ken's Silver Puppy generator.  There are a few reasons for
this.  The silverpuppy current is limited very low.  That means a bit of
patience can be necessary, true!  Next, his production device fits snug
right on the container.  When making specialized CS for use with H2O2, I can
use steam sealed in the container, as I bring the CS very near boiling ( not
at the beginning of the process which I always do at room temperature ).
While it does not create a perfectly pressurized environment, it's the
closest I've currently come.  The electrode spacing is excellent, in
relation to the silver electrodes, and the silver electrodes in relation to
the edge of the container.  The electrodes can easily be perfectly aligned.

Gravity is one of the hardest variables to account for.  Unfortunately, I
don't have a space lab right now ( or any lab for that matter!!! ) so I'm
not sure how better a CS would be as made in zero G.  Trem, Ken, 'ole Bob
and the other "old school" generator designers, be they for commercial sales
or simply home designs, all have used different methods to address this.  A
gentle thermal current goes a long way to preventing undesired current paths
in the production process. As the CS process iterates ( and I do mean
iterates!! ) the current flows along established paths.  Without design
intervention, this predominantly happens in two places.  At the bottom of
the electrodes ( very undesireable ) and roughly at the 1/4 mark ( near the
top of the water ).  The flow of ions reaches a sort of critical mass due to
increased conductivity ( even with current limiting )... and poof! a whole
bunch of particles are massed, which cascade downward, at the same time
reducing conductivity at the "ion stream" point, starting the process of
increasing conductivity over again.

Trem's SG7 Pro is a mighty machine.  It toasts any high voltage alternating
current large capacity generators out there that I've seen, and it does it
with DC.  I had almost given up on high capacity machines.  Thanks to Trem,
I have the luxury of taking a CS bath now and then.  Trem's SG7 Pro produces
a product that has a slightly higher particle content ( through using
machines as recommended without modification ), although my analysis has
been visual only.  This design utilizes a water pump to manage the gravity
variable, and a few other neat tricks not seen elsewhere.  My only complaint
is it that it takes me a half gallon of distilled water just to clean the
thing ( but remember I'm a stickler when it comes to scrubbing everything
between batches )!  but who can complain at 5 gallons of quality CS at a
time?
