Hello again, Dan,

Concerning electrical theory, my knowledga does not go much beyond changing a light bilb and maybe testing an outlet to see if it is adequately grounded and if the neutral is neutral and the live wire actually has 110 v coming out.

I have a simple meter and with it I found my colloidal silver generator regulates voltage and the output is 28v dc. I don´t have a way to find out if besides that it also regulates current flow along the process, but I don´t think it does. I will eventually find out and let you know.

I am buying a laser pointer in a couple of days, but meanwhile I focus my Maglite flashlight and I can get at the center a quite concentrated beam that lets me more or less see the concentration of the particles that are in suspension.

Even though I like the ideas about thermal stirring you and Terry gave me, at this stage I will keep doing it by hand and concentrate in things that for me are more important.

I am planning to get a good quality CS generator in one or two months but meanwhile, with the help you and Terry and maybe other friends in the list are giving me, I should be able to learn something experimenting with the one I have. Even though I have been drinking whatever "soup" I am making with it for over a month and a half, I have not given it to my children because I don´t know what it is or how toxic or useless it may be. I know for sure the slightly smoky looking water contains silver ions and colloid, but who knows what else.

In the beginning I followed the generator instructions and was using one drop of sea salt saturated solution. After Terry told me, I have tried to not make any more silver chloride but I am having difficulties getting the process started. The following time I used about 15% from the previous batch (it still contained a little chloride and other impurities produced in the previous one), but the results were not satisfactory. It was much slower and the color was not as smoky whitish as I was used to, but clearer.

For next batch I used 25% of this and the results were even more odd: The reaction was not too apparent in the beginning and soon at the end of the anode (which came to about 5 mm from the bottom of the glass) a dense thin (about the thickness of the wire electrode) downward flow of white material (it looked like toothpaste coming out of the electrode!!) started depositing at the bottom of the glass, and at the anode there was not the normal upward stream of hydrogen minibubbles but irregular bubbles comong out at differen places, and the cathode did not remain totally clean as it used to do, it also started getting some irregular shading with whitish and brownish tints. Several visible white particles formed and fell to the bottom of the glass.

This batch I am saving for external use only, after leaving the majority of the particles settled at the bottom.

Today I am going to try using a very little bit of pure honey as a starter, as Terry also suggested as another option. I do not want to use salt any more, but with the distilled water alone there is no reaction al all.

Thanks for all your help. I will evetually get there before I have a brand new good quality outfit in my hands!!

Carlos

Dear Carlos,

It sounds like you have good distilled water. Since you are stirring it by hand, I assume you are making a low voltage DC Colloidal Silver (which, ironically, is probably mostly ionic ;-)). However, 12 to 13 minutes seems like a very short time for "brewing" so you must have either used a starter or are using higher voltage...

Can you give more details? What voltage? Do you have any current limiting going on? Do you have access to a voltmeter or a current meter which measures milliamps? Do you have a laser pointer of any sort? Are you familiar with electrical theory at all?

Even if you don't have any special equipment you can still make the CS but you won't be quite as sure about the potency, etc.

One way to achieve stirring for a quantity of water up to about pint or a liter (well, I used it for a one-half gallon container, but it was quite narrow) is to use "thermal stirring." The idea is to heat the container in the middle part of the bottom which will cause the water to rise by convection, and since the outside edges of the container are cooler they will cause the water to move down. This way you will get a gentle circulation of the fluid and not have to stir it. One can get a tin can which has one end cut out, turn it over and cut a smaller hole in the top to release the heat to the glass and then put a small wattage light bulb in the can. Set the CS container on top of the can with the small hole facing the container. You should insulate the top of the can a bit, but don't insulate over the hole. If the light bulb is too hot, you may need some ventilation holes in the bottom of the tin can.

The term "Colloidal Silver" is a catch-all term. The stuff we make by this method is mostly ionic with a small colloidal component. The "must be ionic"/"must be colloidal" debate is mostly a marketing ploy. It has been found that in order for the silver to affect the organisms it must be converted to ions. There may be some virtue to the argument that the actual colloids of silver, if they are small enough, are absorbed in a slightly different way and may maintain their integrity for a longer time in the body, but I believe that they must be converted to ionic silver before they can actually do anything. The CS we make has been proven to be very effective.

Hello, Dan,

Thank you very much for your answer.

Strictly speaking Lyme´s diseases is produced by a Spiroquette and Ehrlichiosis by Ehrlichiae, a Ricketsia. The main vector in both cases is ticks. The sympthoms are sometimes similar. Since Ehrlichiosis is so common in the world I hope I find persons that have experience treating it with CS.

At this stage, I am trying to do my best with the simple system I have. I am getting a good quality bi-distilled through steaming, free of ions, that has no reaction by itself. Terry Chamberlain suggested if necessary use a drop of pure honey, but I like better her other suggestion using some CS fom the previous batch. I don´t want to use salt again.

I am confused about the opinions concernong Ionic Silver and Colloidal Silver. There are al kinds of reasons for considering one or the other the convenient one. Meanwhile, I am trying to find out what my equipment is producing and optimize it, until I can buy a good trustable system. Next batch sould come out better. The product I am gettig looks like a glass of water with one dop of milk, very clear, almost totally transparent with a slight mist. I am stirring manually with a plastic spoon wile it is produced in order to keep the conglomerates s small as possible. The wire electrodes are placed on the opposite sides of a 10 ounce glass and they leave enough space to do it, but it still is a pain in the neck for 12-13 min.!! Eventally I have to get a system that produces at least one gallon at a time with much less hassle.

I will keep you informed about my "experiments".

Regards,

Carlos
