Hi list; An electric fence charger was at the auction last night so
I picked it up for some CS fun. It puts out three ranges, the highest
is 1200 volts ac which is the ranged I used. The first thing I tried
was with the ground wire to a 1" x 1" wetted plate and the 'fence'
wire to a supended plate spaced 1" and above the water. To get things
going I dipped the plate corner and than set it 1/8" above the water
suface. The unit indicator light showed that a circuit was made and a
cone of water filled the gap. I let this cooked for 20 minutes. CS
was clear, showed good tyndall no sparks, sort of like a shadow, light
CS taste very drinkable.
To check it I put 2 oz in four cups from my algae bucket in the green
house.
scope action scope result
cup 1 - live swimmers none live swimmers at end of trail
cup 2 - " " 1/4 ts HVAC CS instant death to many
all dead 15 min
cup 3 - " " 1/4 ts LVDC CS instant death to many
all dead 3 min
cup 4 - " " 1/4 ts DW live swimmers at end of trail
The LVDC CS was made with 24 vdc pulsed, 1" X 1" wetted plates 2" space
in 1 gal DW for 1 hour.
The next batch I used a full wave rec to give 1200 v DC. I used the same
setup I used for the LVDC above. This made brown water with heavy trees.
The plates where a mess. Did not test this stuff, pitched.
Next I set it up as my LVDC CS maker but used the HVAC instead. I put a
spark-plug in series with the 'fence' side of the circuit and set the gap
so there was a steady arc. This turned out to be a .015 gap. After 20 min
I checked for tyndall, none. I ran the trail as above and all swimmers
were dead within a minute. There was bearly a taste and it was clear.
After 1 hour just a hint of tyndall, like a fog or shadow. Good taste and
clear. All swimmers instantly killed. I checked the kill under the scope
and happens so fast I could not see it happen. ( Can anyone on the list
do slow motion under the scope? ) I am going to check out this HVAC batch
over the next week on what ails me. Sure I can count on a few cuts etc. to
try it on.
I was careful setting this thing up but still got nailed 3 times...RONjb
