Hello Mike D.

Thanks again for your clear reply of yesterday.

About the website of Special Energy Products, where I bought my CS generator:
actually I have no idea how to copy a page from a website to an emailaddress. 
But I think it wouldn't make anything clearer anyway, because they give no 
technical info about their CS generator, the Electrolyser. And the illustration 
of the generator doesn't say anything either: it's just a flat rectangular box 
of about 12 x 6 cm. with two holes for the silver electrodes and a small 
lightpoint that goes on as soon as the silverelectrodes (one with a red, one 
with a black plastic top) hit the water . I have to swap these two electrodes 
around every time after using it. 
To prevent the generator from falling into the glass jar (as I have to leave it 
flat on the top of the jar, so that the electrodes can touch the water almost 
complety) I made a top for the jar of a piece of strong carton, cut a hole in 
the middle, to stick the electrodes through it, and now the Electrolyser lays 
flat and safely on the carton top. 
 
I did get a leaflet with info (only in Dutch I am afraid) though, but this 
mainly describes what CS can do. It does mention though that the generator has 
to do with Bob Beck. 

The power supply is a 9 volt flat battery, only one. No mains power, I can only 
use it on this battery.

No, they didn't tell me to add anything to the distilled water.

35 Minutes could also be with 50% of the water (= half a litre) heated, but I 
have also tried with 100% cold water, straight from the bottle with sterilised 
water, and the result was: a cristal clear, colourless CS (whereas with 50% 
heated water, I got light yellow CS, probably because of the kettle). 

I used a penlite battery light, to shine in the CS when I hold the glass jar in 
the dark, and I saw beautiful silver and other coloured particles, not that the 
CS was loaded with it, but still plenty to see.   

I did use this homebrewed CS (based on sterilised water) already since the last 
ten days or so, for instance in my eyes - and I still can see o.k., so it 
shouldn't be too bad! Also I cleaned the bathroom and toilet with it (this was 
CS I made with tapwater, which was rather white cloudy or misty, so I didn't 
want to ingest it), and now after a few days, it is still all nice and fresh 
there, just the same as if I used the ordinary cleaning products. I also use CS 
(based on sterilised water) as a deodorant, and it does what it should do.

But I understand from your reaction that you wonder if 35 minutes is too short 
a time, to make strong enough CS. Is it advisable to experiment with a longer 
'brewing' time? Although I must say that the instructions with the Electrolyser 
specifically say that 35 minutes is long enough. 

But like you say also, "The bottom line is that without a lot of expense, you 
will never know exactly how much silver you've got in your water, but it really 
doesn't matter, because the proof is in the use." Although, you also warned to 
make sure that I don't react badly for any reason. Is it possible then that CS 
can have side effects? What could they be, apart from getting a blue skin 
(Argyria or something like that?). I also am giving it to my horse, pony and 
dog. Can they have any side effects from drinking CS?

Thank you for your help!
