Making Colloidal / Ionic Silver
Mar 20th
- Using your Square Wave Generator, set the back to A/C and connect an electrode lead to Jack 1.
- Turn the Frequency and Current knob to “Noon” or straight up.
- Connect one end of each of the alligator clips to each end of the electrode leads and the other end of the alligator clips to each of the 99.99% silver wire rods.
- Bring some distilled water to a boil (Distilled is VERY important as any water with chlorine will produce Silver Chloride – which can be seen as a white milky substance around the silver wire.)
- Add an electrolyte to the water like 1/16 tsp of baking soda and mix. Do not use salt as that contains chlorine.
- Insert the 99.99% silver wire rods into the water and make sure they do not touch
- Turn on the device and in roughly 5-10 minutes you will have Colloidal Silver.
- A higher current will make colloidal silver faster, but of a lesser quality. It is better to use a lower current for longer periods of time.
- The density of the Colloidal Silver can be measured with an electronic probe which can measure parts per million (PPM).
- Please see the hundreds of videos on YouTube for more explanations of making Colloidal Silver
Simple Usage
Mar 20th
Model 1004 as pictured below:
This model can operate on batteries or A/C power.
- To operate this device on A/C power, plug the 24V or 30V power supply into the wall and into the Square Wave Generator on the rear.
- To operate this device on battery power, ensure three 9V batteries are installed. To open the unit pull the top and bottom pieces apart.
- Turn the power switch to the “On” position. A red power light will turn on.
This model can function in A/C or D/C mode which can be selected by the A/C or D/C switch on the rear of the unit. (Note: An electrode lead must be plugged into Jack 1 and a circuit must be completed by the electrodes through a conductive medium in order to make the lights blink on the front of the unit. The electrode leads can be touched together to test the functionality of the system.)
- A/C indicates alternating current which means the current will flow from one lead to the other and then back.
A –> B
B –> A
When that occurs both blue lights on the front will blink alternately.
- D/C indicates direct current which means the current will flow from one lead to the other only.
A –> B
A –> B
When this occurs only a single light on the front will blink.
This model two blue indicator lights on the front which will blink alternately or only one at a time depending on if the A/C or D/C mode is selected.
On the front are knobs used to control the Frequency and the Current of the Square Wave Generator.
The Frequency and Current will decrease as the knob is turned clockwise and will increase as the knob is turned counter-clockwise.
In order for the unit to function an electrode lead must be plugged into Jack 1 and a circuit must be completed by the ends of the electrode lead. If a second electrode is plugged into the options Jack 2, then the ends of the second electrode lead must also complete a circuit.
To test the unit, turn it on, set it to A/C, turn the Frequency and Current knobs to the “Noon” location or straight up. Plug an electrode lead into Jack 1 and touch the ends of the electrode lead together. At this point the blue indicator lights on the front will blink alternately. As the current knob is turned counter-clockwise, the indicator lights will get brighter. As the Frequency knob is turned counter-clockwise the frequency of flashing will increase.
