It's nothing that complicated! It's one of the sizes the jewelry supply had on hand and I though a larger wire would last longer!! <GRIN> > A difference such as particle size? A difference in the TE?

I would like to ask these same questions of all the > silver generator users. -- Spiroflex The idea of limiting current per unit of electrode surface area (current density) as a way to keep the particles smaller, is one idea that has surfaced here on the list. Other features like low-rate polarity switching are helping with buildup. The lower current even can generate perfectly clear CS, though more slowly. If the particles are small enough, the Tyndall effect becomes *less*. How's that! Enough confusion for one post? <grin> Be well, Mike D.
