Starting with Wall Mart distilled water and silver rounds ~ 40% immersed into DW at ~ 3/4 to 7/8ths inch separation I obtain ~ .9 ma DC current. After 8-10 hours exposed to a current limited current of 1.22 ma, and retesting with 19 volt battery source, this voltage rapidly drops to 18 volts and them measures ~ 3ma. Going an extra half hour with current limited process now set to 2.4 ma, and redoing battery test with 19 volt source I obtain ~ 3.6 ma or above. This would be a quadrupling of initial current tested in the distilled water with the 19 volt battery source. Am I correct in assuming that this should be a ~ 16 ppm product? Can some one say a better definitive way to test for ppm, or is the current comparisons from start to finish a fairly standard method of determining ppm? Sincerely HDN
