Hi everyone I'm Ken.
I'm new to the list but not new to Colloidal silver. I was making it a
few years back, but have not for a while and been out of touch a little.
When I was making it I was using a 9volt wallwart, distilled water,
silver rods, + aqu.pump.
Silver rods were worn out so I just picked up 2 Canadian Maple leaf
coins .9999 pure silver.
In the past I always had some colloidal silver around to use a little
when starting a new batch, but I don't have any now. So last night I
made a batch, I ran it for about 3 hrs.Will this batch be a little
weaker because I didn't have any CS to start it with?
Most likely you will need to let it go longer, or it will be weaker.
My thinking is I can use this batch as a starter?
Yes you can.
Trying to get up to date on things. I see they have a whole lot of CS
generators on the market now.
I understand from what I have read lately is that the prefered voltage
to use is 30 volts. A friend who I will be making some for as well, is
an Electronics Tech. and has offered (no cost) to build me a new
constant current CS generator.
Constant current is the way to go.
So my question is; at 30 volts what should the current (constant
current) be??
Current should be about 1 mA per square inch of submerged anode.
Starting voltage is irrelevent as long as you have sufficient voltage to
generate the current you want in your setup. Voltage across the cell
will simply be V = IR with I being the current, and R the resistance of
the cell.
Also using this generator, how long will the process take?
Depends on the desired concentration, the current, and the volume of
water. Use Fairday's equation to compute the amount of time.
Is it less time with the higher volts?
Voltage has nothing to do with it if using constant current, as long as
you have sufficient voltage to get the current you want. If starting
with good distilled water, then the start of the process can be sped up
with higher voltages, since the current will be dependent on the voltage
and below the constant current settings. This will not be true if using
a starter and sufficient voltage is used to get the current you want
from the beginning.

I will be using distilled water, silver coins .9999 pure, + aqu.pump
in a 14oz glass ( but I would like to use a 48qz mason jar I have). I
would like to do the best job I can within budget.
Looking for a little guidance from other members. Been reading alot
of your emails on the list in the last few weeks and thought it was
time I started adding to the overflow of email in my inbox lol. :)
Just like to add that when I was using it before. One of the things I
used it for was very oily skin and would soak a few cotton pads with
CS and apply it to my face in some areas and just let the pad soak
there for qiute a while, sometimes till they became dry. I did this
for a few years with NO sign of grey or blue. Thought I would
mention this as there has been alot of talk lately about Paul (aka the
blue man)
Just like to add a Happy + Heathly New Year to all.
Thanks
Ken
