I have only recently started to study CS production, and I am 
uncertain what to think about the various waters I am testing.
I know what I see, but not what to conclude from it.

I would be grateful if one or some of the experts here could
take a look at my parameters!

Before I started buying things, I studied CS theory, devices
etc. on the internet. I spent about a week fulltime, simply
reading everything which Google would give me. I also bought
an e-book with a lot of interesting background data.

After that, I created my setup. Please bear with my European
units, I hope you can translate them to US units!

I use not the ~ 250 ml which would be 8 ounces of water, but 
600 ml of water, because here I have lots of perfect and 
free glass bottles and I can keep a constant setup without
having to frequently rethink processing times. My silver is
a 999 fine silver rod, 3 mm diameter, especially produced
for me at our national agency for precious metals ("Oegussa").

I use four 9 V rechargeable batteries which should give me 
36 V, but the actual output is more like 32 - 33 V. I have 
a meter built in with a scale from 0 to 100 mA, and for 
water testing I use a second one, a multi-meter which has
a setting with a 0 - 0.5 mA scale. 

Instead of using the wildly varying production time settings
given in the literature, I stop the process at a certain current 
mark, which is 7 mA. I got that from a URL which I have recently
seen on this list, saying that about 1 mA per cm2 of wet 
electrode (I assume one electrode, not both) are the upper limit.
I have 7 cm of wet electrode; at 3 mm diameter they have roughly 
1 cm2 surface per cm of length.

The second meter with the 0.5 mA scale gives me a clue about the 
water conductivity at the start of the process (I have no other
way to evaluate the water quality). 

I had been warned by the literature that what says "distilled water" 
on the label is most probably not actually distilled, but created 
by some kind of ion exchange machinery. So while I was testing 
various "distilled" waters, I also ordered a Waterwise 4000 water
distiller (that decision came after I found out that my best
available water, "Aqua bidest" from the pharmacy which is even OKed 
for intravenous solutions, would cost me € 3,71 a liter...!)

Here is why I am confused and uncertain what to think:

The water with the highest conductivity seems to give me the 
best CS, at least if I judge from the literature I have studied.

I have only the ampere-meter to judge conductivity. The following
waters have been tested. I give you their names with the mA I read
at process start (the water has room temperature):

METRO (a supermarket) water ("don't use for medical purposes") 0.30 mA
BIPA (another supermarket) water 0.32 mA
PURIFIED WATER (locally made in our pharmacy) 0.35 mA
AQUA BIDEST (sterile in infusion bottles) 0.16 mA
WATERWISE 1 (self-distilled, once) 4 mA
WATERWISE 2 (self-distilled, twice) 0,48 mA

(just out of curiosity I also tested tap water conductivity: 50 mA !!! )

I tested METRO, BIPA, PURIFIED WATER and AQUA BIDEST while my 
Waterwise distiller was in the mail. I seemed to get reasonable CS 
out of all these waters. It had a golden color and the taste was 
about the same I tasted in a bottle of CS which I had bought 
at € 40,- for 100 ml at my naturopath's practice.

BUT I never saw any golden "silver cloud" hover between the electrodes. 
Instead, I got a feathery blackish buildup on the negative electrode, 
looking like a christmas tree, and a dark brown cover on the positive 
electrode. In some waters, the stuff would not attach itself to the 
negative electrode but first travel to it and then sink to the bottom.

After settling for two or three days, the remaining fluid would be
golden and clear and show me a faint tindall effect.

When my distiller arrived, I went to work with great enthusiasm, 
thinking that now I had the real thing. Great was also my disappointment
when I saw that with 4 mA at process start, my water obviously was not 
of the quality I needed. I reached my 7 mA already after 15 minutes
(normally about 1 hour 20 minutes), didn't wait any longer and threw 
that batch away.

I decided to double-distill. Now I had 0.48 mA at process start.
And oh wonder, for the first time ever I saw the famous silver cloud
build up between the electrodes. The negative electrode remained
absolutely clean, from the positive electrode I saw a fine dark
brown dust sink down to the bottom. That batch reached 7 mA at 1 hour 
10 minutes. The flashlight still showed me the silver cloud hovering
in the water when I put it up on the shelf for settling. 

That was in the evening; in the morning the liquid was crystal clear 
(no golden color) with only a little brown dust at the bottle bottom.

Now I am confused what to think. The WATERWISE 2 process looked
cleanest, but it had the highest starting conductivity of all 
the waters I tested. Do I have silver salts in it now? And what 
happened with the other batches?

Thanks in advance for taking the time to read all this and give
me your interpretations!
