If the electrodes get too close to the jar you'll get a mirrorlike silver deposit in the area. I'm not sure there's any other problem with it. I just put mine near the middle of the glass, at least a half-inch, three quarters of an inch away. > And is there an optimum or recommended distance between the > electrodes? How does the seperation distance have any effect on the > production of CS? People use 1/2" to an inch. Mine are 3/4" apart. How critical is it? Just in reproduceability. If you're going to get the same concentration as I do, using my exact recipe, you'll also have to reproduce my electrode geometry, in terms of wetted length, spacing, wire diameter, etc. Lots of setups produce perfectly serviceable CS. The challenge is to know what you've got in terms of concentration. Be well, Mike D.
