If the LED shifts from green to red and back, it's doing its' job  of
switching polarity.
The wire will NOT stay shiny over time due to pitting and reformed silver
dust on the surface...but that isn't "crud" and needn't be disturbed..

If you press the button for 5 seconds, it will run in DC mode and you'll
get black crud on one side and white frothy crud on the other.
The older gen has a switch to run in DC mode.

​An ion exchange filter removes minerals and replaces them with water, 
so they are a good part of preparing water for your distiller (it will stay a

But they also greatly reduce the conductivity (TDS) of tap water,

We were just out shopping and my wife pointed out the "Water Store" next
to where we often shop.  Went in and distilled water is $0.70/gallon in
your own container.  We just bought three gallons of the Walmart water
at $1.07/gallon ($0.88 + California bottle charge).  Next time we go
shopping I'll take my TDS meter and a small cup and ask to test their
water.  Might check around your area for water stores.

Subject: CS>distilled water

Hi,
What happened with Great Value/Wal-Mart distilled water was, it worked great in 
the CS machine but then I got a whiff of overwhelmingly offensive odor.  I have 
no idea how long this had been going on but it was enough to make me stop in my 
tracks.  I decided to go ahead and make another batch of CS but it too stank to 
high heaven.  I have never used another gallon of Great Value distilled water.  
All the gallons of distilled water and the new batch of CS were tossed.  The 
odor was in the plastic jugs.  Out of curiosity, am I the only one who has 
noticed this?
I think you all are right, when you find a good source of distilled water, stay 
with it.  In this case it will be Walgreens even if I have to pay triple.
Interesting thought that if distilled water was unavailable, rain water would 
probably work fine.  
Thank you,
Jean


 I agree. I have a TT distiller and find that I am much better off
 buying the DW.


 As I recall Jean got a bad batch from Walmart. I get "Great Value"
 distilled water there - steam D, microfil & ozonation with never
 a bad gallon. I have had a bad Arrowhead brand from Groc. store.

Might be worth trying Walmart again.

HI,

No, never thought about off gassing but will in the future.

I called the toll free phone number on the distilled water, Clover Valley
and after asking if the plastic had BPA and if the Ft. Worth municipal water
supply was recycled water, was told their expert, Amanda Cannon would be the
one to talk with.  At 3:13 PM CST, there was no response or message machine.
I guess it is like the little town of Haskell, TX, where everyone but one is
gone from FSA early Friday, and everyone at the tax office is gone.  It
seems to be the new game to enhance the weekends.

I¹ll try again on Monday.

Thanks,

Hi,
I found out the store within 35 miles round trip was actually named Dollar 
General and their distilled water is by Clover Valley.
Bought one gallon and when I got home, sniffed the opened bottle.  There was 
just a hint of offensive odor but it wasn’t overt, all but undetectable, so 
started a new batch of colloidal silver.  The SilverGen worked fine with this 
new distilled water.
Thanks!

Ah Hah!  NOW I begin to understand the world of atoms and molecules a little 
more betterer g.

 

I was under the impression that 'motion' in this context was a reference to 
'velocity', and this is why I thought that due to the 'velocity' of ion or 
molecule movement, combined with the 'G' forces required for penetration of 
that barrier, there would be some 'major' event {at an atomic scale of course, 
and only a 'flash' moment in time} occurring upon impact.

 

Thank you for that simplisitic explanation.

2010-10-02 Thread Neville Munn

Oh, I think I see.  I would have thought that if one meter which has resolution 
increments of '.1' shows a reading *higher* than '1.', then the meter which 
reads in increments of 1 would display 1 instead of 000 when the first meter 
registers higher than 1 initially?  If that's your ...water which is 0.4... 
thing then I'll have to do some reading up.

 

Example:  My records show the Com100uS reading has to exceed 2.6 before the 
ComTDS3 reading moves from 000 to 001ppm.

 

As most meters are set up or calibrated taking a water temperature compensating 
factor into account, would this also have a bearing on the apparant different 
readings from one manufacturers meter to another?  Meaning, not only the 
calibration fluid used, but also the built in temperature compensation may have 
an influence on the reading of a uS meter compared to a ppm or TDS meter as 
stated above?

 

Example:  My records show the ComTDS3 *always* shows a higher water temperature 
of DW straight from the bottle anywhere between 1 to 1.8 degrees compared to 
the Com100uS meter, is the aforesaid an explanation for that?

 

Curiously, after EIS/CS production that temperature difference in the majority 
of cases seems to reduce after the solution has been in storage for a while, 
like down to 1 degree or lower, I find it rather strange that it doesn't remain 
the same difference as it was straight from the bottle.

That is true generally. But when you add in accuracy it might still give 
a zero, if for instance it has an accuracy of .5 and thinks the water is 
reading .4 because it is off .5 on the accuracy.

That makes sense.  2.6 on uS will be equivalent to 1.3 on the TDS, and 
if the accuracy is no better than .3, than that is quite possible.

.

Yes, the calibration fluid and water being tested need to be at the same 
temperature.

temperature of DW straight from the bottle anywhere between 
1 to 1.8 degrees compared to the Com100uS meter, is the aforesaid an

A constant offset should not be that significant in being a problem as 
long as both are calibrated and used at the same temperature.


Curiously, after EIS/CS production that temperature difference in the 
majority of cases seems to reduce after the solution has been in 
storage for a while, like down to 1 degree or lower, I find it rather

It is quite possible that aggregation is endothermic (in fact if you 
have two particles colliding that stick together, then you will have 
less kinetic motion, and thus possibly a reduction in temperature).

 Those number don't mean anything to me without researching each of 
them. What is important is the resolution of each.  If the resolution is 
100 uS for instance than anything less than 50, and maybe less than 100 
will register 0.  Since the expected readings should be between .2 and 3 
or so, the meter must be able to measure and display such readings.

 Marshall, the only place I have seen and used distilled water which
 tests on my PWT at .000 was in Australia, Perth to be exact, this
 distilled water is made specifically for those with kidney problems,
 and for the Kidney Foundation. I went to the factory which produces
 it and you should see the machinery they have for making same. You
 would delight in the factory it is a beauty to be sure, clean as a
 whistle and smooth as a babies bottom

OK.

 

Not that I'm overly concerned with meter readings particularly but here are 
some figures if they are of any value...

 

Com ec/tds/temp...resolution ec 0-99: .1uS, 100-999: 1uS

#I don't use the tds function.

 

Com tds3...range 0-9990ppm (mg/L)

 

Hanna tds1...range 0-999ppm (mg/L), resolution 1ppm

 

I haven't written down the accuracy % for each as that's irrelevant to me in my 
kitchen as opposed to laboratory controlled temperature environment.

With some of these one could certainly get 0, since they lack the 
resolution to measure less than 1.  For water which is 0.4 of what they 
are measuring they would measure:

..

Com ec/tds/temp...resolution ec 0-99: .1uS, 100-999: 1uS
#I don't use the tds function.

0.4


Com tds3...range 0-9990ppm (mg/L)

0


Hanna tds1...range 0-999ppm (mg/L), resolution 1ppm

0.

That is why it is so important to know what the resolution is when water 
is highly non conductive.  I do my measurement with a meter that has a 
resolution of .1 uS, and thus have never seen 0.  If I were to use one 
of the other meters I would see 0 all the time, but they would not 
really be 0, just lower than the resolution of the instrument.

I gave up trying to get DW that was consistent,so I bought a good 
distiller.I also use the water for all potable uses,and the better taste and 
purity of it is well worth the price.Also, by now I have more than saved the 
cost of it,besides not having the nuisance of shopping and chasing around 
looking for good DW.

It seems definitely the what here, as well as the concentration, Ode 
mentioned to me once that if I can get away with single distilling when 
the river is very high, whatever the contaminant is must be in lower 
concentration in the town water at those times.


In my reply to Ole Bob, I should have also given thanks and credit to 
Ode, who told me from the beginning that my CS probs were due to the 
water, but kept answering questions and helping me also sort through 
everything else it could have been, until I finally came to the same 
conclusion. Thanks Ode!


I think one reason commercial distilled water didn't work for me is that 
it probably comes from the same river water that is my town's water 
source. There aren't many other water sources in this area, and indeed 
local river water is sold to the next town east where the Coca Cola 
bottling plant is (perhaps the bottler of several brands of locally sold 
distilled waters?). Some of the water from the river is also sold to 
California. It can really be difficult to determine where one's tap 
water is coming from these days.

Sol, when you run your still do you blow-off the first steam to the air for 
several minutes before you turn the steam into the condensing coils?
   
  If not many components that you don't want go over into your final product.

 Zero..which can be as high as 2 [which isn't wonderful water] or even 
3-4 microsiemens of conductivity [uS]..depending on how accurate your 
particular PPM meter is at such low ranges.
 Using a PWT or COM-100   .2 uS  is the best I've seen.  An average good 
is around .8 uS

[or somewhere around one tenth to one half of zero on a PPM meter]

 Zero is generally good enough...depending more on what is in it, more 
so than how much.


If your CS looks good, it probably is.
 If it looks bad, it probably is.
 If you have oddball problems, change the water [and/or container] first 
..no matter what the meter reading is.

 Water is the biggest variable.
 Rarely, even a fingerprint left on the wrong day after eating something 
can mess things up.

Re: CShome-made CS - distilled water source

2006-04-05 Thread sol
   You did help me with this a couple years or more ago. There is 
something in the water here that does not distill out easily. .4uS 
double distilled water makes perfect CS, .4uS single distilled does not, 
except when the river that is the source of the town water is very high.


   You helped me go through and take readings during making several 
batches of CS, and consider several other possibilities. The only thing 
that came up is it had to be the water, and it was. You also tested some 
DW for me, too.


   So basically I now do what I need to do, and everything is perfectly 
consistent and repeatable. I can make fine CS with higher uS water if 
the ppm is kept very low, but I prefer my CS to be 10-15 ppm as that is 
what works best for me. I have experimented with low ppm CS several 
times, and just don't get the same results as other people report from it.

Hi Larry,
  I work/live in Germany and I just checked 5
different brands of empty distilled water bottles I
have and none have a skull and crossbones on them.
They are VDE 0510 standard and are for household use
to include irons, batteries, fish tanks, humidifiers
and photography to name a few. And I make my CS from
this water.
  There are a few brands that are labeled not for
drinking but they are not the VDE 0510 standard.
Hope this helps.  Theodore

Hi Larry,
here in Germany, I never saw distilled, or de-ionized water labeled like
that (which doesn't mean that it couldn't exist). Might be, very cheap
brands made with dirty apparatus for use only in steam irons could be
labeled like that (as one is warned in trains not to drink their tap water).
Water made by reverse osmosis is not offered in the shops I visit.
Normally the mentioned warning labels should only be used with really
poisonous stuff.

Actually it isn't quite as pure as distilled water.  It can contain dust,
pollen and other materials.  It will usually have a higher content of carbon
dioxide than distilled water, and in industrial areas, it will contain
sulfuric and sulfurous acids, in such large quantities it is often called
acid rain.

What are you saying?  That consciousness can not be a diagnostic or

be wrong a lot, but the are also right quite often, and they do diagnosis when
awake normally.

There are many examples of conciousness being a diagnostic tool. Everything
from doctors knowing how to diagnose and interpret their instruments, to
muscle testing, Clarks' diagnostic machine, dreaming what a problem is and
dowsing.  All can be very good diagnostic tools.  Without them nothing would
ever get diagnosed.

Same for therapeutic tools.  Although less often used, it can be quite
powerful.  Everything from cancer patients visualizing their cancers
shrinking, people taking a placebo and getting cured, to Reiki, to Christian
Healing to prayer is using conciousness as a therapeutic tool. The mind is
very powerful, and it can cure just as well as make you sick.

CS Distilled Water

2002-05-24 Thread larry tankersley
Dear List... I get tired of hearing folks repeating what may be nothing
more than 'urban myths' regarding such things as mineral leaching caused
by DW,or drinking water with a meal inhibits your ability to digest
properly,etc.
 Below is DR Weils take on DW,but there are no references to studies ,so
as far as I'm concerned it just another opinion if not referenced to
science. QUESTION.; Does anyone know of a site that deals with such
questions and provides the references to the studies that make it more
than 'EDUCATED OPINION'??
Published 12/19/2001)
First of all, let me review for the record what distilled water is —
it's water that has been turned into steam so its impurities are left
behind. The steam is then condensed to make pure water. The process of
distillation kills and removes virtually all bacteria, viruses, heavy
metals, and other organic and inorganic contaminants. Once distilled,
the water is as pure as water can reasonably be. 
For reasons I don't understand, any number of myths — some quite
extreme — have grown up over the years about distilled water. A quick
Internet search today will take you to sites that put forth such views
as distilled water leads to early death. Nonsense. One claim holds
that distillation removes all of water's beneficial minerals. While it's
true that distillation removes minerals as well as various contaminants
from water, we don't know that the human body can readily absorb
minerals from water. We get our minerals from food, not water. By one
manufacturer's estimate, you would have to drink 676 eight-ounce glasses
of tap water in Boston to reach the RDA for calcium. 
Your question as to whether distilled water leaches minerals out of the
body reflects another persistent myth. While pure water helps to remove
minerals from the body that cells have eliminated or not used, it does
not leach out minerals that have become part of your body's cell
structure. Neither does distilled water cause your teeth to deteriorate,
a false claim made by a filter manufacturer looking to boost sales. As
far as acidity goes, distilled water is close to a neutral pH and has no
effect on the body's acid/base balance.
I hope I've set your mind at ease. Distilled water not only isn't
dangerous, it's the purest form of water. It's also the kind of water I
drink.

CS DISTILLED WATER.

2002-05-10 Thread larry tankersley
This may be of interestOnce again the question of DW leaching
Minerals is being  presented as fact by a very widely read medical Guru
[see Dr. Mercola's [sp] comments. Sure would like to see the studies
backing up point blank statements of FACT!! One of the folks on this
list made the point that the body system is to sophisticated to allow
this to happen...not much chance of knowing without some science or
clinical studies,..even then it's hard to KNOW.. epistemology is
interesting ,I think. Anyway.. if you will. see below.

 Finally, Physical Proof that Distilled Water is Inferior E-mail to a
friend 
Dr. Masaru Emoto, a visionary researcher from Japan received
certification from the Open International University as a Doctor of
Alternative Medicine. Subsequently he was introduced to the concept of
micro cluster water in the US and Magnetic Resonance Analysis
technology. The quest thus began to discover the mystery of water. He
undertook extensive research of water around the planet not so much as a
scientific researcher but more from the perspective of an original
thinker. At length he realized that it was in the frozen crystal form
that water showed us its true nature. 
Distilled WaterWater from a pure source 
Dr Emoto began by studying the crystallization process of water It all
started in 1994 when he took samples of water from various sources,
froze a few droplets, examined them under a dark field microscope and
photographed them. He photographed the crystal formations produced by
water as it passes from liquid into freezing state. It is like taking a
snapshot of the water at that moment in time. He quickly realized that
the crystals that formed from water depended highly on the natural
health of the water. In other words, water from natural springs, healing
water sources etc, formed beautiful and complex crystalline geometries -
like snowflakes. 
Water that had been distilled, polluted or passed through consumption
had lost its inner order. This leads to the realization that natural
healthy water carries an 'inner order' defining its nature and
properties. 
Dr. Masaru EmotoArticle compiled from 3 Web sites: GodsDirectContact.org 
CoCreach Resources
The Spirit of Maat
DR. MERCOLA'S COMMENT:
E-mail to a friend 
In April I attended the SkaSys lecture by Dr. Hans Lechner. This amazing
technology allows one to successfully harness consciousness as a
diagnostic and therapeutic tool. 
Dr. Lechner shared detailed of his recent meeting with Dr. Emoto and it
became clear that this technology could clearly demonstrate the danger
of distilled water at a clear and easily seen level. Although it is
controversial I am firmly convinced that distilled water is harmful to
your health. 
One of the major foundational reasons is that distilled water is highly
acidic. Most of us are far too acidic already and the last thing we need
to be drinking is a fluid that will make us even more acidic. Distilled
water is alleged to be beneficial due to its lack of contaminants. Well,
many of the devices that distill water are made of metal and will
actually add certain toxic metals like nickel back to the water, which
actually worsens health. 
Since distilled water is like a vacuum without any minerals, it will
actually leach beneficial minerals from your body to balance it out.
While this maybe beneficial for a short period during some sort of
detoxification regimen, this is usually highly counter productive in the
long run. 
Then there is the physics of the water. Water is structured and when it
is distilled the structure becomes profoundly disturbed as you can see
by the pictures above. 
It is possible to restructure the water by putting it in a clear glass
container, adding a few minerals and leaving it out in the sunshine for
a day. This will help to restore the normal beneficial structure that
water should have to promote health. 
I believe it was the Asians who popularized the saying that one picture
is worth a thousand words, so please enjoy the pictures which will help
you appreciate the difference between natural spring water and distilled
water.

 Water from a dehumidifier is as dirty as the air it takes the water
from..trust me on this one..or better yet don't,just think about it.
 Many years ago the Detroit News 'in a question answer thing, said it
was pure and fine to use...next day a big retraction and not on the
back page.
 Think about whats coming out of an U-Sonic 'humidifier' also what
ever is in the water it is putting out in the vapor...that's why you
must use DW in one or end up with mineral dust all over the area.
