Hi Jeff:

I got it from Utopia Silver http://www.utopiasilver.com/index.htm, it comes calibrated for making home made CS and the price is $39.00.

Where did you get a tester from Jim?

Subject: Re: CS>Am I doing it wrong?

Maybe I should do some more research before proceeding.  I do have
another question though.

I bought 3 bottles of CS from Utopia Silver, then decided to make my

own

so I bought some silver rods and a CS tester that was supposed to
measure the PPM.   The first thing that I did when the tester arrived
was to measure the PPM of the Utopia CS and it showed 7PPM, their site
said it was 20 PPM.  I wrote to them and their response was that home
made CS was more ionic and the tester was callibrated for home made
silver not commercial made.  What does this mean and does it sound

like

they are simply selling 7 PPM and representing it to be 20 PPM?

Thanks again,

Jim

A flyback will not work properly.  The voltage needed is

the frequency, and a

flyback operates at around 16 KHZ.  You can use about one cycle per

minute for 30 Volts, and

60 at 10 KV.  For 15 KHZ it would likely take millions of volts.

Remember you have to suck

the ions far enough away from the electrode for a signinficant

number of

them to not be

sucked back during the reverse half cycle for it to work properly.

We have an electronics store locally that has lots of used

neon sign, or possibly a fly back transformer.  I've got plenty of

time,

and like to experiment, I'll go see what I can get.

Pretty easy to do with a 15KV neon sign transformer.

Sounds like an interesting project to build a 10,000 V AC

generator.

I

might give it a try.

Thanks Marshall

I used 30 VAC one time for over a week and got nothing. Unless

you

have enough voltage
