'Morning Wayne,
I think that sometimes you "don't see the forest for the
trees"... Are you a Virgo perchance?
You have your own way of looking at things and you own way
of describing them, and you have confused me on numerous
occasions. It seems to work for you, of course, but I would
have blown up my equipment and myself once or twice trying
to follow your descriptions.
Where would we be if people like Faraday had concentrated
only on the differences between things and never on the
commonalities between them? No rules or laws would have
been developed. You would not have Ohm's Law, or the
Faraday equations of electrolysis. Yes things are
different, but they are also the same...

I wonder where you found that as the "Old Method" ?
This was the method used by Stan Jones, (and perhaps by the new blue
man, Paul Karosan)
You are making wild assumptions, speculating, and confusing the ones
that might not be confused already.
No one with a slight knowledge, or a .1 brain used the method that Stan
Jones used.

Depending on how much work a man has done in his life, the thumb and
forefinger will be larger and the pinch will be larger.
At best, the Pinch is a "Unit of Guess".
My scientist friend would like to have you working for him.
He does many kinds of experiments.
After 60 MINUTES of brewing time I observed the anode. It was visibly
VERY reduced. I estimated it had lost half its volume.
So in one hour, 1150 milligrams of silver had been dissolved in just
250 mls of water.
This equates to 4600 ppm.
Only one little question,............
Just what were you trying to prove ?
>>So any assumption that this old method makes about 1 ppm per minute
is >>completely wrong by a factor of about 70.
It appears to me, you are the only one assuming anything.
Again........ tell me where you got the instructions for "The Old method".
And I doubt that omitting the pinch of salt would have made much
difference because the conductivity of the tap water was pretty high
anyway. (So making CS with anything other than pure water is a bad idea.)
Now you are fully qualified to use the muddy water and the horse urine.
I will cover all about how to do that when I answer your other message.
You'll also note that the calculations above are exclusively limited
to the milligrams of pure silver that was actually dissolved. I have
no idea what that would equate to in ppms of silver chloride.
While you may be a chemist, a scientist, an engineer, and a PhD,
like my scientist friend, he sometimes stumbles, falls, and breaks a
leg.......... tripping over the real facts.
Tap water: 324ppm / 660uS
Pinch of salt added: 990ppm / 1950uS
After 30 minutes: 1330ppm / 2650uS
After 60mins: 1820ppm / 3450uS.
You should give that away to all your enemies. <grin>
Actually, I was surprised to see the conductivity increase. I expected
it to remain virtually stable with dissolved silver combining with
impurities to form non conductive particles.
You mean you thought you would reach a "Saturated Solution" ?
My power source was a DC wall transformer that output about 29v.
At least you did not use the term, "Wall Wart".
That gives you lots of points, and I won't call you a Mad Scientists.
And....... a Transformer that puts out DC ? The only one in the world
I guess.
Out of many thousands, I have never seen one that did.
I have two friends that are both PhD's in Horticulture. They disagree a
lot, even in the field of their study. One calls the other, a Mad
Scientists.
Maybe some consider that a higher level degree, or a pat on the back.
I think I get the point of your experiment.
Now, ......... if you could find some people to test it for you, that
would be
colorful, would it not ?
