Anyway, I've made 40+ ppm CS with a Silverpuppy in the past. Its
not that hard. Its just a matter of using very pure water and
keeping the batch size small. Trem has also said he's made 40+
with a Silvergen. Mike would dispute this of course.

Would you mind sharing more details on this? How small must the
batch be? How pure must the water be?

First, you need a generator with current control like a silverpuppy
or silvergen and theres probably a couple of others. (But it must
have a 'manual' mode so you can over-ride the auto shutoff). You also
need continuous gentle stirring. Then connect a multimeter across the
electrodes so you can measure the voltage. As the silver dissolves
into the water the required voltage will slowly drop as the generator
maintains the required current. (e.g 1 mA.) Check the voltage every
15minutes or so. If the voltage levels out (i.e. you get the same
voltage reading twice in a row) then stop the power for about 15
minutes and let it rest before switching the power back on and
continuing the process.
The batches I have made this way reached about 45uS (or roughly
45ppm) allowing for about 4 or 5 'pauses'. (I cant remember exactly).
I did this in something slightly smaller than a pint jar in water
with an initial reading of about 7uS which is very pure but not
impossibly difficult to find. This method may work just as well in
larger batches but I used small batches because you see whats
happening much quicker.
Conductance drop is caused by the presence of particles in the water.
The particles are either in the water in the first place or are
created during the process by over-saturating the silver solution too
fast and creating silver hydroxide/oxide particles that then 'suck
in' the ions and reduce conductivity over time. So obviously the
purpose is to minimise particle formation. (Theoretically ions can't
combine all by themselves so its the particles that are the problem).
As I said, its not that hard, but hardly worth the effort in my
experience.
In the absence of a multimeter and a current controlled generator its
probable that CS with a higher ionic can be made with any genererator
simply by stopping the generator every so often and letting the batch
rest for a while before continuing. I haven't tried that but anyone
with a TDS meter should be able to determine if it works.
