The only differece between the two generators is that Utopia addresses electrode spacing which eliminates one of the major batch to batch variables. Neither generator controls the output current and it's current that controls the rate of ion production. Timing a batch to predict PPM with this type generator is a near impossibility. Depending on several factors, PPM may vary 90% within the same time span. For instance, Just a slight difference in intitial condutivity of the distilled water will result in a major difference in production rates. Commercial distilled generally ranges from .9 uS to 5 uS conductivity...sometimes more. That common range can amount to several hours difference in time to get to the same PPM. Home distilled varies even more.

It basically amounts to shooting off a rocket without knowing the amount of or burn rate of the fuel. If you can track the rocket somehow, you can at least abort the mission before it overshoots the target.

If your electrodes are spaced the same from batch to batch and you hook up a milliameter, you can get a good basis for repeatability by subtracting the starting current from the ending current. Calculating PPM from that info will be somewhat accurate for a given setup but different for each and every other setup as spacing and whetted electrode area varies.
 What the calculation is for your setup, I couldn't even guess.

Bottom line:: If you don't know where you started or how fast you're going, you can't possibly predict when to stop.

Hi,
My mom purchased a CS Generator through Herbalremedies.Com and we have been making silver for over a year now. I have recently learned that this may not be the right way to make it and we may not be getting all the results we should be (not to mention that we may be adding some wrong things into our bodies at the same time!). Please help me understand exactly how CS should be made and how much we should be taking. What we have made has been very beneficial to this point, but I have been trying to do more research to make sure we are doing it correctly and am sharing this information with many others, as well. My concerns developed because I had looked into the generator sold by UtopiaSilver.com and it was quite different from the one my mom has. I don't understand all the engineering and/or chemical details of some of what I have read, but I am VERY interested in making CS for myself, my family, and several friends that I have "turned on" to CS. I would really appreciate any help I can get. I will be out of town for a few days, but will get back with anyone that responds to my plea ASAP. Thanks for being there!
