Folks, I built a so-called water magnetizer and did some experiments. I used two very strong magnetron magnets (from microwave ovens). The North poles were facing each other on oposite side of a plastic bottle about 3 inches thick. I added room temperature filtered tap water and let it sit in the magnetic field overnight. I sloshed the water around a few times while it was being "magnetized".
Using two different ranges of pH paper, I measured the before and after pH of the water. Out of the tap it measured a bit below 7. The disappointing thing was that the after "Magnetizing" the water measured exactly the same - there was no change in pH. So, either my experimental technique is wrong, or the concept of "magnetized" water is a bunch of hooey. I am thinking the latter, but welcome your comments. I will make one more run with N & S poles facing each other to see if makes any difference. As an aside, I have proven for myself that passing a DC current (10-12 ma) through plain tap water does result in a change in pH. I used two plastic containers with holes in each container with a porous membrane (artificial chamois) clamped between the holes. After an overnight run, the two containers that started with water with a pH of about 7 ended up about 8 (slightly alkaline) and 6 (slightly acid). However, after half an hour or so, both containers reverted back to being about 7 again. So, list members, what are the safe, economical ways to make stable alkaline water?
