Seems to me that this is a good argument for using a current regulator circuit. Then, when beginning the CS generation, a large voltage will be applied to get the process going. But, as the water gets more conductive, the voltage cuts back to keep the current constant, and this should keep the particle size small. Now the $10,000 question is ---- What current level is optimum? 40mA... 20mA... 5mA?
