Hi there, just one or two tips. I use 27V DC for 70 minutes, using a Techne temperature regulator (plus or minus 1/200th of a degree or so) set over a bath containing a beaker containing two litres of single distilled water (Double and triple distilled are no good, as no reaction will take place), which has been minimally exposed to air. I use 99.999% pure silver available from Alfa Aesar in Germany, a division of Johnson Matthey, 2 meters, cut into 12 electrodes set in a varnished wooden block resting on top of a non-reactive glass 2 litre beaker, in absolute darkness (light will make your ions bottom out, and really throw your settings off if you are aiming for constancy during manufacture, or are calibrating your equipment for future constancy). The vibrational rate is vastly superior with the higher purity silver, and consciousness is much clearer in the higher chakras with this than with, say 99.9% or the 99.99% purity which some 'kit' retailers distribute.
I noticed that even in complete darkness, leaving ionic silver for any period of time exposed to the air would allow oxygen to bond with the silver ions and the sol would turn grey black, with the ions bottoming out, so I would definitely not be putting air through it. Secondly on the issue of TDS meters, I tried that, and they are useless. The only way to find out your silver ppm is to send a sample of what you make (around 20ml) to a lab, they then add nitric acid to dissolve all groups of ions, and then aspirate the vapour of that into a high temperature argon plasma, to get highly accurate readings, by looking at the colour spectrum of the vapour. TDS meters are not designed at all to measure silver ppm, I have already been down that road in great depth. The only stirring you need would come from a Techne, or similar, temperature regulator pumping water (again, use distilled water in in the external water bath to prevent ions in vapour of other substances jumping over into your beaker with the electrodes in and throwing everything off) in an external bath to insulate the beaker sitting in it. You can request a lab oven manufacturer to drill holes in the back of a lab oven for you to put your wires connecting to the electrodes through, this will do away with the fuss of using an external water bath, and the accuracy is only slightly less, varying only at the maximum depending on the quality of oven you buy up to 0.1 or 0.2 ppm silver). I have never tried the AC generator kits, it just does not seem real to me, a product that is not affected by light, magnetism, plastic, etc etc, and is virtually invincible and able to be produced at any ppm you want with an electrolyte to give uniformly small particles, using high voltage for just a few minutes, 8 or 10 minutes or whatever it is, the physics just looks a little impossible to me, given that the product is still one with a valency due to missing electrons, (a charged hydrocarbon molecule in plastic will cause silver ions to stick to the side of the container, and the AC kits I have seen on the internet are sold with a plastic beaker, plus whenever I have seen ionic sols, sold as 'colloidal' silver, I can see that in clear plastic containers the silver has stuck to the side leaving a heavy yellow deposit-this will be happening just the same even if blue or brown plastic is used. I always use blue or brown glass and then put that in a cardbard tube, as any light at all, and plenty does pass though coloured glass, will ruin your sol. Hoping that this will be of good help to researchers just starting up.
