Anode = Positive = is where the silver ions are 'donated' to the water
Cathode = Negative = where the electrode becomes dark due to the 'sludge' -
IF NOT POLARITY SWITCHING, THE CATHODE CAN BE STAINLESS STEEL, If polarity
switching OR if you have a unit that COULD be switched to polarity
switching... NEVER use anything other than both electrodes as silver.. as
you could have activated the polarity switch inadvertently and end up
poisoning yourself.
I hope this helps..

Subject: CS>which electrode gets? dark
Can someone refresh my memory on this? I've forgotten whether it is the
cathode or the anode that gets dark/black, and whether it is the cathode
or anode that is the one actually "donating" silver into the water? (For
generators without polarity switching, or with polarity switching turned
off). I just want to be sure.
thanks,
sol
