Hi! I've never used or made collidal silver but am interested in having a setup to do so when needed.

Please help me with links or advice about where and what to purchase and some pointers from you Vets.

Thank you ahead of time!

It is so very simple, our grandmas could do it - and they did.

Simply put, you run 30v DC across silver (.9999 pure wire, preferably) while it is suspended in distilled water.

I have seen it done with pre-1964 solver dimes, but this is not reccomended.

I have also seen it done with three 9v batteries (27v total, which is close to 30v).

There is a wealth of info out there. Look in all the obvious places. An unlikely resource, for me anyway, was the comments section on Amazon for the Silver wire. You can glean a lot of wisdom there from folks who have been doing i for a long time.

I recently bought a small bottle of CS silver, and not surprisingly I feel like I just got cut a new butt hole, such was the price.

Making it yourself is way more economical.​

Oh, I almost forgot. I recently used a small solar panel to electrify the silver rods of my CS machine and that made a good CS too.
The $15. Harbor Freight 1.5 watt solar battery charger. It actually puts out about 22 volts at about 125 mA in full sun. About 22 mA under an overcast sky. Either way it's perfect for the task. I have a good video about that solar battery charger:

My wife and I have been using CS/IS(Colloidal Silver/Ionic Silver) for over 10 years and it works great. My wife is a allergic asthmatic, and normally gets 5 to 6 upper respiratory infections a year that require antibiotics. With the 20PPM CS/IS she has had zero infections, as she used a ultrasonic nebulizer. You want to control the current flowing in the distilled water from the 99.9% silver wire/bar/round. You can use Faradays calculator to get your PPM or milligrams of silver in solution. As with anything, you only use it when needed. Making the silver solution yourself makes it very cheap to use(there are a ton of uses).

Kscmac,
When your wife takes it, how much does she take, how many times a day and for how long. Bought 3 bottles but did not want to try until I got info from someone who already used it.
Thanks
Have a blessed day

The only way you turn blue is if you take too much over a period of years. We are talking like a pint a day. If you follow directions and take like a couple of teaspoons a day you will never turn blue.

I had an aunt who used it for nearly 60 years and swore by the stuff and she never turned blue. She took a teaspoon full in the morning and a teaspoon at bedtime. She hardly had any ailments. She finally died at the age of 97 from a severe stroke.

Funny, only those using the junk made with salt or silver nitrate have had the condition arogya. If made properly there has not been a documentated case in over 20 years. Consider how many people take/use silver and the just how many people die from legal drugs(taken properly), I will side with silver. Everyone that has used the silver from me never return the bottle, when I ask they say I might need it for something!. So I just have them buy the bottle(a dark brown heavy glass) this way I don't run out of bottles. Everyone that has use the silver has had excellent results, even my friend who has MERSA, it got rid of the infection almost going into his eyes. So I don't push I just tell them to try it.

I believe it is commonly accepted that it is the impurities that turn the skin blue, not the actual sviler, and that is the reason you should only use a purity of .9999 (four 9s).

The impurities in silver are pretty nasty, like nickel.

For this reason, please do not use 1965 or older silver dimes and quarters, as they are 90% silver, and 10% "not silver"

PS: I have ordered my silver wire off Amazon, from the only company that sells it for that purpose. I has four 9s. I expect delivery any day now, and will post results

I've been doing research and collecting the tools and materials yet. What I've found along the way: 30VDC is usually recommended as the best current to make the CS. Many laptop computer chargers have a 30V circuit. You have to do some multimeter testing to find the right wire combination. Canadian Maple leafs are the purest silver coin being minted, 99.99 % just what is recommended as the best for CS. Maple leafs are WAY cheaper than 99.99% silver wire. Nobody that I have read has suggested using them, seems like a no brainer to me. I bet you could make a gob of CS with a pair of oz. coins and still sell them as full oz. coins. I wouldn't let the clips running current to them touch the water, that could contaminate the product.

I have read that hospitals are introducing CS into their water systems as insurance against any biological contamination of the water. I may be relying on surface water that I will filter and store in a cistern at my BOL. I was going to treat the water with chlorine, but after reading a lot about CS, I think I will use it i

You use a current control, a 2 transistor setup or a CLD(Current Limiting Diode). The diode you can get in several different currents, I have a 470µAmp, 800µAmp, 1 milliAmp, 2.5 milliAmp, 5 milliAmp diodes. You control the current as to aviod runaway once there is silver in solution. The 30 to 36 volts DC pushes enough to get current accross, with the current being limited. Faradays calculator will give you the amount of silver in mg or PPM for a known volume of distilled water and current level. Controlling the current prevents largescale "ripping" off of silver from the anode, which with the rising conductivity of the distilled would cause runaway of the current if not controlled.

I'm curious about something. I've never done the ppm calculations using the formula because I've always used an HM Digital Com 100 EC/TDS meter to measure ppm.
When using the formula for PPM, how do you account for the distance between the electrodes and how that distance decreases or increases conductivity depending on how far apart the electrodes are? When the electrodes are farther apart, it takes longer for the silver particles to bring the conductivity between the electrodes up.
How do you account for the impact of the frequency of cleaning the electrodes during the cooking process which reduces the amount of silver oxide gunk that would otherwise become a part of the C.S. solution if it wasn't removed from the electrodes?

Lots of mis-information in this thread. Not going into it but here is what I built.

Great generators are out there but I like projects and knew my way around this.
I added a stirrer made from a computer fan and a hard drive magnet which uses a stirring bar like these (search and find better prices).

PURE .9999 silver wire or Canadian Maple Leafs for standby.
The larger gauge wire works MUCH better. Check this site out but you can shop around. I ordered from here a couple years ago and things went well.

USE GOOD QUALITY DISTILLED or REVERSE OSMOSIS WATER AT MINIMUM!!! Distilled water is best but be aware that even distilled water can sometimes be more than pure H2O. I have had luck with Crystal Springs brand distilled in my area. I measure PPM (parts per million) of any water I plan to use. Any batch that should happen to turn out cloudy or anything other than a light yellow tint should not be used internally. Don't throw it out though because it is still great for topical use and a thousand other uses. The only time I've had this happen is when I was trying different brands of distilled water.
DO NOT USE SPRING WATER!
DO NOT USE TAP WATER!
DO NOT USE NURSERY WATER. (Don't even use this for infants or children!) Study it and you'll find out why.
DO NOT USE SALT unless you want to turn blue!
DO NOT believe everything you read on the net about CS but make sure you get a way to make your own.
Your life may well depend on it in the very near future.
ps...I helped someone get rid of staph after the doctors failed for over a year to stop the cellulitis that kept coming back.
CS works...the challenge is to get it in contact with the offending bacteria.
Yes, it will work for sinus infections but getting your Vitamin D3 level up (much higher than the RDA) is of paramount importance. Take vitamin K along with D. Blood tests give only accurate way to check your real D level. Learn this stuff while you can.

Quaternary ammonia- (Lysol IC) Amazon or Sams by mailorder.
Clorhexidine- eBay or Amazon or TSC
Follow directions very carefully!
Look up the labels and you'll be very surprised at what these are effective against.
Better to NOT get the bacteria in the first place than to try to get it out of your body.

That's good to know RO water is o.k. Got plenty of that.

And those last two you mention, Q ammonia and Clorhexidine, what are you using them for?

I do want to learn all this stuff. Good tip on the D3. I take vitamins and take B-12 injections and try to stay in shape. In case anyone cares, my doctor said he thinks they are going to stop making the B-12 stuff and I needed to get all I can. I just visited him today. :)
