According to the figure above, we should have liberated 400 mg of silver (making 20 ppm of CS), so we are getting about 25% efficiency on generating the colloid. Marshall >>
Marshall: I think if you compare the output of a typical HVAC setup to the type of LVDC set up recommended here, you will find a much lower output from HVAC. However, if you sputter silver off the electrode the output increases by at least two orders of magnitude. To calculate current density, divide your operating current by the wetted surface area of the silver electrodes. I don't think you'll find that the current density difference sheds much light on the difference in CS output between HVAC and LVDC. It probably has more to do with the high energy required to produce the smaller particle size from HVAC. Roger Roger -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
