Arnold,
I think your observation is a very useful and concise summary of the
difficulty that laypersons have in making a judgment about the merits
of particles versus ions. I frankly throw up my hands; I do not
have enough information to make a determination. I know only that CS
has interesting and useful effects when I use it on myself, and that
it has rapidly cured conjunctivitis in two of my children, and a skin
infection that was troubling my spouse. Those external effects were
really dramatic; internal effects we can not see and can only guess it
without extensive lab tests and so forth. I find too much
contradictory information to make a good judgment, so I am glad that
my device makes an ionic/particulate blend.

Hi Robert,
The ionic component of the solution would have been maximized before
the generation of particles started. I am not minimizing the effect
of the ionic portion of the solution, particularly as a surface
treatment. I have a real problem, however, trying to see how a silver
ion would survive very long inside the body with all the stuff that it
would want to combine with. You and Trem say that "Only the ions
count, the rest is useless". Frank Key said at one time "Only the
particles count, the rest is useless". You use umpteen thousand volts
in a contraption that anyone would have to be a bit mad to have in
their home. Frank Key uses ultra-centrifuges, exploding wires and God
knows what. The only real purpose that I can see of this is to
distinguish the one from the other. A home user can easily make LVDC
current limited CS with ions and particles, they need not be mutually
exclusive.
P.S Please keep in mind that I am paraphrasing both you and Frank and
I am very mindful of the great contribution of both the ion and the
particle camps.
Best Regards,
Arnold Beland

Hi Arnold,
I am sorry but I do not agree with you about the interputation of the
T.E. beam.
There is no proof the colloidal particles do anything, but the ionic
silver which is not visible in the beam are what function with ion
the human body.
The best electrically isolated silver is 90+ ionic silver.

When you use a good laser pointer to shine the beam through your
colloidal silver a luminous pencil thin "beam" will appear. How
bright this beam of light is will be dependant on how many true
colloidal particles you have made. The beam is created by the light
scattering properties of even the very smallest particles. The
objective should be to achieve the brightest beam you can before the
entire solution turns yellow, indicating that the average particle
size has become larger than what we consider to be ideal. The
"sparkles" that are being referred to are chunks of silver oxide
that have been knocked off the cathode in one way or another. Being
much larger than the colloidal particles, they will be brightly lit
when passing through the laser beam. They will eventually fall out
of suspension and find their way to the bottom.
