The voltage is almost irrelevant.
The current should be *around* 1 milliamp per square inch of electrode or
less to avoid overloading the Nernst Diffusion layer.
Distance between electrodes as well as area will regulate current by adding
or decreasing resistance in the water.
That can also be done with a potentiometer.
You'll find that as current is held constant, voltage will go down as
water conductivity goes up with the addition of silver ions.

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? My thinking is I can use this batch
as a starter?
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.
So my question is; at 30 volts what should the current (constant
current) be??
Also using this generator, how long will the process take? Is it less time
with the higher volts?
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
