Hi Mike,

I don't really care about exploding batteries or how to keep it simple unless 
the list owner is going to post videos of exploding batteries and fist fights 
amongst the members. I might even pay extra for that. (^_^)

Anyhow, in your recent post, you suggested a "W" shaped electrode and a small 
drinking glass. I was thinking of a quart mason jar. Something that would be 
better equipped to take a "U" shaped electrode. I'm thinking that the shape 
doesn't matter as long as the surface area and the spacing are the same.

You also mentioned that the spacing between the electrodes doesn't matter 
that much. Without agitation of the water, isn't the concentration of silver 
between the electrodes going to be much higher then behind them?

I've got the variable voltage, current limiting power supplies and 5 1/2 
digit HP DVMs that I use at home. I'm just trying to put together something for 
a 
simple person. No meters, no salt test, just make the stuff and drink it. I 
was thinking of spacing the two "U" shaped electrodes at about 1 1/2 inches 
apart.

I can hook it up to batteries or a wall transformer. I can put a resistor in 
series or just tell them it's ready when the electordes turn black. I just 
need to keep this simple. What do you think?

Thanks for your time.
Andy (^_^)

  Hi Andy,

  Well, since you ask, here's my recommendation.
