Alan, The HI98308 is the PWT and it measures directly in PPM from .1 to 99.9 PPM TDS meters read in whole numbers and only read about 1/2 the silver so you double their readings.

My problem with TDS (total dissolved solids) meters, is that they have a rather arbitrary calibration, based on the assumption that the dissolved solid is some particular salt. I like a true (EC or electrical conductivity) conductivity meter. To convert microsiemens per cm conductivity to total dissolved solids you use a conversion factor to calculate the dissolved solids value for a specific substance. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conductivity_%28electrolytic%29 http://www.tdsmeter.com/what-is?id=0019 Unfortunately, colloidal silver gives a different conductivity (lower) that ionic silver, for the same concentration. But either TDS or EC meters should give consistent and repeatable results for silver water made by the same method (where the ratio of colloidal to ionic silver should be pretty consistent). So if you like the solution you have made, making it, again, to the same reading, should produce about the same solution. -- Regards, John Popelish -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.

RE: CSTesting CS
Hello Gary, The generators will sometimes not shut off on the HIGH setting because the water will not accept any more ions and it keeps turning them into colloids which are not conductive. Just turn the dial down until it shuts off and that’s the maximum setting for the water you’re using. Usually around 2-3 O:clock will be about right. I hope this helps you.

Kelburn Koontz wrote: Hi, it seems to me that a cheaper way to measure the CS particles might be with resistance and transmittance. The resistance measurement could tell how much silver is in the sample. It measures the ionic content, not the colloidal content. Transmittance is the measurement of light passing through the sample. Would the amount of light be affected by the size of the suspended particles? Yes it would, instead of getting 99.999% of the light through, you might only get 99.998% of the light through. But there is no way to corrolate the amount observed vs the concentration since the absorption goes up with the particle size. The absorbed wavelength goes up with the particle size, and thus one CAN make a good estimation of the concentration using a scanning specrtrophotometer, as long as a UV one is used. These can be purchased for about $6,000. Marshall -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
