Of course you can use flat electrodes - you just have to reduce the current. This means it will be slower than an equivalent system using round wires and the same wetted area. I used to run at 1.4 mA per square inch, and it usually turned yellow or black after a few days when I tried to make high ppm cs. I had a low-level residual Shingles infection, and the cs made at this current had no effect. However, reducing the current density to 80 to 100 microamps per square inch produces very strong and very clear cs. The rods stay clean, which indicates very little is wasted making black sludge. It doesn't turn yellow. The cs made with this current density killed the Shingles infection. The scabs fell off several days later, and have not returned. I now only need to take a mouthful every three or four days, instead of drinking 8 oz each day as I did before. This helps the digestion a great deal, since much less enters the intestine to kill the friendlies. I use 12 ga folded into a "W" to increase the surface area, which allows proportionally higher current and shortens the run time. I have done a few runs at higher currents that do turn yellow with the same total number of Coulombs. So I believe there is a critical current density somewhere between 100 and perhaps 1,000 uA/sq in. So the effect of flat plates is you reach the critical current density sooner than with round wire, since the current is higher at the edges. With either method, if you are making black sludge and have to clean the rods, reduce the current and increase the brew time. I tried three methods of stirring, and it helps reduce the sludge. But it had no effect on the Shingles. Low current is the only thing that worked. The other problem with flat plates is keeping them straight and aligned. 12 ga wire is quite stiff, so it holds alignment very well. Thin sheet is very difficult to keep flat and straight. Another problem is simple contamination. Systems that leave the rods loose means they will lay flat. I once got very ill after getting a drop of something on the rods. I never found where it came from. With 12 ga wire, you can bolt the rods to a plastic lid. This keeps them aligned, and you can set the lid upside-down on a table with the rods sticking in the air while you are emptying the cs to another container. So you never have to touch the rods or handle them. Flat is OK. Round is better. Best Regards, Mike Monett -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
