Just in case it helps here, I went back through my records and have starting currents in the range of 0.16 mA through 0.72 mA with most of it scattered around 0.60 mA. I am also running 40 volts and 18 gauge electrodes, so that may account for the difference here. Before I started keeping records as I recall at 26 V I was running pretty consistantly around 0.27 mA. All batches but two have been using the Cullysprings water from Safeway. I also have a gallon of the Safeway store brand and that looks like it is in line with the Cullysprings stuff. I'm in Washington (Seattle) so maybe Safeway might be in OR also. The Cullysprings stuff has been very consistant between batches. FWIW: I am in the process of changing over to the "standard" here at this point - 28 volts (3 new duracell 9Vs show 28.8 V) and 14 gauge electrodes. Sorry if I sound disconnected here, it has been a busy day :-).
