Auto shutoff is keyed to the current controls and moniters the water exactly in the same way that a PWT does...by checking conductivity. [By monitering voltage drop] In order to work right, the electrodes must have a set surface area and be kept at a set distance apart and be parallel, there should be some way of distributing the ions so they don't from denser pathways in the water and the generator must have current control. If all these factors are considered in the design of the generator, it's highly repeatable. It's not as accurate as, or temperature compensated or give you numbers on a display like a meter but it's very close .... within a few microsiemens.

Any device that counts on time without controlling current AND giving you a monitered starting point to time from...that's BS. Timers won't work unless you know where you are and how fast you're going. Constant voltage from battery packs and wall warts is like driving an accelerating vehicle without a speedometer. You can do it IF you know the acceleration curve and where you started from. [fat chance] Using a meter to constantly check is like stopping and asking directions. That will work.

Monitering current rise at a constant voltage will also work but it's difficult to make excellent CS very strong with high currents and you may find yourself limited to 3 to 5 PPM. [Electrode area and distance is still a factor there] The 6 volt scanner adapter will do better but take longer than the 40 volt one.

You can in fact use distance to your advantage by making the electrodes movable on a calibrated mount like a ruler. Move the electrodes apart every so often to a certain distance and current will stay at a fairly constant rate. [you can at least control it] How far and when can be determined with an ammeter and correlated to PPM with a conductivity meter or some pretty complicated math.
 Same thing can be done with a potentiometer and an ammeter.
..now to pay attention for that long.

First get a PWT meter to test the DW and the PPMs
Second take any power supply you may have from AC to 6Vdc to 40Vdc (your Scanner, Printer plugin will work) and two .9999 silver wires, Put the + to one wire and the - to the other wire and you have what any of these high priced gen's have, other than you have to watch the PWT meter each hour or so to see what PPM you have other than a auto shut off. ( that is BS anyway) Even the seller's will tell you this.

Hi All!
    I've been a silent participant of this newsletter
for a month or two, but still have some very basic
questions. I am a natural healer and have been using
and making CS for about 18 months ( but making it the
"wrong" way- heating it, using saline and making very
high ppm - I was using Metcaff's first book.) Now I
want to buy a new generator that will make CS that is
stable, of high quality, with consistently small
particles. I know that much. What I don't know is what
to buy. I think that low voltage is good too, right? I
feel that I need a degree in chemistry to understand
how it is made! I understand the applications and have
had wonderful results with CS, but I really want to
make it right. I see that Ruth bought a generator from
silverpuppy.com. What do any of you think about the
generator from
wishgranted.com/Colloidal_Silver_Generator? It's
called the colloid Master. I'll explain a little about
it, but it would be better if someone who knows
something could check it out and let me know please.
It's low voltage, automatic shutoff, current and
voltage are modulated for optimal particle size,
constant current devise, bi-directional current
pattern to the electrodes, so no stirring needed. It
has adjustable ppm and shut-off, built in water
quality test function. One sells for $99- the other
$149.
     I would appreciate so much if someone could let
me know what they think about this generator or if
they know of a better one. Your help will in turn
allow me to help many more people. Thank you!

Ann
