The difference is that you know what you have and you can count on it.
And you don't turn blue!

I made a zapper for a friend once, he was merrily using it, but when I
checked it I found that the output lead was broken, so he was not
getting any zapping even though he thought he felt the subtle tingling
in his hands.

The simple test would be to touch the electrodes to your tongue and feel
and 'taste' that it is working... 

Similarly, if you have some problem and take CS for it expecting
something to happen, it would be nice if it was actually what you
thought it was.

When I made my own with the 9v battery and two electrodes, before I knew
a lot about CS, I was much happier to have a slightly yellow CS rather
than a clear solution, at least I knew I had some CS, and I think it
worked better too.  (Probably the batch of clear was very low ppm)
