Thanks for such a speedy reply Steve, Glad to be here. I most definitely want the electrodes to wear evenly, so swap them I will! As far as filtering, I was kinda thinking along those lines, but wanted to throw it out there just the same. The operating instructions from SilverGen discussed filtering but it was not recommended for the very same reasons you stated. One thing is for sure I want my process to repeatedly produce high quality cs. I worked for 17 years in the automotive coating industry (QC/QA & Lab) I know first hand that subtle variation in titration and analysis, although not recommended, it more important that whatever you do be consistent. I use to tell the lab techs during training "If you turn around three times, you better do it each and every time or the variation in your method will come back and bite ya" ........LOL I've been away from it for a few years; but one of the line was low ammonium zinc chloride, so I am familiar with hull cell testing etc. Not having a tds/ppm meter what do you all recommend as the most accurate? Does anyone out there do anything more sophisticated to test their cs other that using tds/ppm with hand held / table top meters? Are there other quality testing method / equipment that can be employed? If so please share, Thanks Mary -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
