I've never been able to get an increase in conductivity beyond 3
uS. After generating for many many hours, a grey green precipitate was
visible on the bottom and no discernable TE.
Perhaps other have had a different experience?
FYI House wiring is very pure copper.
Copper is also supposed to be good for collegen in the skin...so...using
copper ions to purify pool water could do more than just keep the slime away.
But don't injest too much. It can also be toxic.

Speaking of Copper, I've heard that copper is an essential element that
our body needs and that we don't get nearly enough of it in our diets. I
wear a 99% pure copper bracelet to offset arthritis pain, (don't laugh, it
works), the copper is absorbed through the skin. My question is can the
silver rod in my CS generator be replaced with pure copper to add copper
to the CS?

There is a silver bonded to copper bar that's marketed to toss into
swimming pools. The dissimilar metals apparently generate a small
current that deposits metal ions into the pool water in the presence of
less than usual levels of chlorine.
Both silver and copper ions have the ability to control bacteria and slime.
Very expensive IMO
Seems like one could take a sheet of copper and heat it enough to melt
silver onto one side and get the same thing. An old electric stove
element set on high should do it.
There are also a few copper ion generation filter systems on the
market...REALLY pricey!
Long ago [late 70s/ early 80s?] there was a solar float being marketed
that released metallic ions that sold for $300. Don't know what
metal...probably copper.
A chunk of styrofoam, a solar panel [such as a solar battery charger]
and some house wiring oughta do that OK.
Zinc also has the same anti microbial properties in ionic form.

Hi again:)
I noticed in the first two digest emails I received
that someone referred to an article on CS uses. Could
someone please point me to the article, repost it or
give ma a link?? I'm really interested in all it can
be used for...
Hmmm..I've heard it makes a good spray for your
swimming pool to cut down in stuff in your pool. Does
anyone know if you can buy a filter with silver for
the swimming pool???
Maybe one of you brainy inventor types could come up
with one;)
Thx
