I mean both. I figure a relatively high frequency (10 kHz) and voltage (maybe 5 kV) at very low current (microAmp range). That is, if they're trying for electrophoresis. >>I'll bet they're wrong. :) Since Clark's zapper, all by itself, will >>kill the bacteria and viruses, the silver electrode is just a contact >>point.

I've been thinking of pounding out some silver rounds to try as "wands" for the Clark zapper. BTW, IMO, the Beck/Miller (no relation) bio-electrifier works at the transition when the voltage reverses every 1/4 second. That's why you use (wear) it for hours at a time instead of the Clark zapper's minutes. -- Dean -- from (almost) Des Moines -- KB0ZDF -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
