On the other hand, it is possible that any silver that collects on the negative electrode may require, after polarity has been switched, that the same amount of current be used to release it from the electrode as if it had been originally part of that electrode...

Re: CS>How do I successfully create CS? >Shelf-life of CS "My very first Batch"
With polarity shifting there are a few seconds per cycle that don't do much as the electrochemistry reverses. If I recall, the current stays constant, but the voltage makes a swing, so the EIS chemistry shifting may be "delivering" current like a battery for a few seconds. If the shift frequency is one minute, 10 or 20 seconds out of that cycle doing nearly nothing could make a huge error in the calculations.

Re: CS>How do I successfully create CS? >Shelf-life of CS "My very first Batch"
It all depends on your generator. I have a Silver Puppy and I make up to 32 ounces at a time. The SP has a reverse polarity function which I use because you get almost no crud in the water but it takes longer to brew using this method. Mine takes approximately 9 to 10 hours to make this amount because my distilled water is extremely pure. The amount of TDS in the water reads 7-9 and I take this to mean there is approximately 14ppm at the end of the time. It is (almost) impossible to accurately judge the ppm but it doesn't really matter as long as it isn't over 30ppm (for normal use that is) dee ---Original Message--- From: Evans, Antonio F.
