Using my "Rule of Thumb for CS Calculations" we know that you can get
about a maximum of 17ppm of silver in 1 cup of water at 1ma for 1 hour.
That is, 17ppm max in an hour (under these conditions). I assume that
there is sufficient conduction to reach saturation at 1ma immediately.
17ppm divided by 60minutes = .28ppm per minute (approximately)
.28ppm per minute times 3 minutes = .84ppm (approx)
.28ppm per minute times 5 minutes = 1.4ppm (approx)
This amount of silver does not seem excessive. In fact, it is
surprising that such a small an amount is so effective.
I have been thinking about an "Emergency CS Maker" for use in...
emergencies, of course. Such as the Tsunami disaster. Such as the
Katrina hurricane disaster. Such as the Kashmiri earthquake disaster.
The Katrina and Tsunami "emergency" is pretty much over by now, a CS
maker would still be useful but it might have been a life saver
immediately after the crisis. In Kashmir the disaster is going to keep
on going and going; many will die over the winter.
I envision something extremely simple and used in a manner such as that
described by Tony. The device would be hand held, something to snap a
9V battery into and two leads, one silver and one copper. If two
dissimilar metals are to be used, the silver wire should be permanently
connected to the positive pole of the battery (not removable).
If no current limiting is used the device could be used by immersing the
electrodes in a cup or glass of water and stirring for about a minute.
Perhaps some testing would show what is a practical time for a range of
water types. Remember, this would be emergency use.
(If current limiting is desired, perhaps resistor limiting would be
practical. Again, some real world testing may show a practical range of
use...)
I have found a 9V battery connector at Digikey P/N 968K-ND listed at
$.445 per connector. Look it up on <www.Digikey.com>. picture at:
http://rocky.digikey.com/WebLib/Keystone%20Electronics/Web%20Photos/968.jpg
This connector has a post coming out the back of each connection. The
wires could be soldered on using a non-lead plumbing solder and the
joint covered with a length of shrink tubing, the kind that has
waterproofing goop on the inside. For cheapest cost, use 14 gage wires.
The problem would really be getting them to people and then getting them
to understand how to use them...

Dear Silver Listers
I would like to know exactly what sort of danger anyone could possibly
get into by making CS with ordinary water and using that?
I have been making CS with 9vdc from a battery and with current control
to 1mA for many years . I use whatever the drinking water is out of the
tap. 3 to 5 minutes per 8oz glassful. It works. Cures upset tummies in
minutes. Stops a cold in its tracks if taken soon enough. Stops BO for
many hours. Soothes insect bites and thorn scratches. Disinfects wounds.
Great for flushing mould and dirt from sinuses etc etc.
I really would like to know the specific dangers that might be
practically applicable.
