For all practical purposes the mA ability of the source is irrelevant,
unless it is below 10 mA or so. For a typical home brewing setup, the
water resistance between the wires will be a meg ohm or more. Thus the
current will be set by V/R, and for 30 volts will be 30 uA or less and
for 9 volts 9uA or less. As the ionic silver increases, the current
increases exponentially, until at around 10 to 20 ppm you should be
getting something like 1 mA per square inch of anode, or something in
the order of .5 to 2 mA. (A uA is 1/1000 a mA)

The research I have done suggests that the lower voltage with an AC/DC
converter (between 9V and 14V) is best. But, the important
measurement on the converter is the milliamps (mA). Use the premise
that Voltage is the size of the river as mA is the speed of river.
The lower the Voltage and mA the slower and smaller the particale
creation.
Now, I like previous poster am a novice to electricity and
conductivity, but it just seems to make sense. I can make a 10ppm
batch in 30 min. using a 30V 1.5A (1500mA) converter. It takes me
1hr.30min. to do the same with a 9V 350mA. Using my logic the latter
will be the better quality CS with the smallest particle.
Consider, the 9V batteries are rated below app. 30mA and if my
research is correct mA's do not increase like voltage does when wired
in series.
I welcome corrections to this idea. Lou

How do you use a printer adapter ??? I can take a 350 chevy engine
apart. & fix it but-- when it comes to electricity I'm dumb as a
