The reactivity to sunlight indicates that there are silver compounds
(maybe silver nitrates, and others?) in the water, which can happen
with the HV, so I hear. Ergo- silver in photography, etc.
The LV makes a stable ionic water that does not react with the
sunlight, which seems to me like it indicates there is nothing else in
it but ionic silver and distilled water. Actually, there are small
amounts of silver hydroxide and silver oxide from the electrodes
reacting with the hydrogen and oxygen atoms that are aslo
electrolysed, but the amounts are intended to be very tiny.
Most here seem to make the low voltage variety, it is very safe- it is
hard to hurt yourself with the process- which may not be said with a
high voltage set up at home. However, there are some hardy souls that
do the high voltage variety. I have a small battery powered homemade
set up which works fine for me, it is cheap and easy. Of more concern
is the quaity of the water I use to start with.

they were saying that the Nitrogen in the air reacts with the arc and

was apparently not so good either. they sited that their LVCS was very
stable, in that sunlight would not cause flocculation of the CS ions.
IMO, my HVCS is quite good. it has a good Tyndall & takes hours to get
to this stage. it is totally clear, but slightly cloudy when you look
into the container from the top. the only thing, when placed on a
white saucer and then held in the sun it turns a purplish/red color
and takes on a metallic smell & taste. if the bottle is kept out of
the sun it remains clear for months (a long term trial has not been
done as it is used up by that time). also, i fly a lot and frequent
drilling rigs with their closed rooms and hi EV pollution. my CS
remains clear. only the sun can change it.
