To easily and rapidly make unlimited quantities of good quality silver colloid concentrate for ~1 cent per gallon (plus water costs) you'll need three 9V type MN1604 regular alkaline transistor radio batteries, three battery snap-on lead connectors, 2 Insulated alligator Clips, 1 "grain-of-wheat" 24 volt 40 mA sub miniature incandescent bulb, a foot of 3/32" heat-shrink insulation tubing, 10" pure silver wire, and a foot of 2-conductor stranded insulated wire for clip-leads. This should cost under $20 maximum for everything and take about 35 minutes to assemble from scratch. This
design is "idiot proof" and simple to use. It makes an odorless, tasteless, colorless fast and powerful antiseptic and one of the most remarkable healing
agents known.
The entire colloid making process takes about three minutes per 8 OZ batch for ~3
ppm laboratory tested concentration at room temperature.
Use three snap-on connector clips for the batteries. Solder them in series (red to black) to provide 27 volts. Connect a 24V incandescent lamp in series with either (positive or
negative) output lead. Solder a red insulated alligator clip to the positive (anode) and a black insulated
clip to the negative (cathode) 2-conductor lead wires. Insulation is shrunk over soldered
connections using a heat gun or match Use ONLY pure silver (.999 fine) electrodes. #14 gauge
(AWG) is the preferred size. Pure silver IS sometimes available at electroplating supply companies
foundries, precious metals dealers, etc. Do NOT use "Sterling" silver (.9275 or other) since Sterling
contains copper and nickel Nickel can be toxic. WARNING! Sterling is sometimes passed off
or electrodes with commercial colloid makers through ignorance or by entrepreneurs who are
trying to cut corners and save money. Discard them as hazardous. Use only triple distilled or
ionized water for inject able colloid. Single distilled water makes the best transparent colloids but
its higher resistance takes up to half an hour to make a 5 ppm concentration. Tap water is OK
foremost other uses but contains chlorine which may produce some AgCI which is harmless but
gives a milky appearance as will any salt (NaCI) which should be avoided. Bend top ends of silver electrode wires to clip over rim of plastic or glass
container. Leave about4 inches of bare electrodes submergible in the working solution (water). Spacing
between electrodes is not critical. There is no on-off switch, so process starts immediately when
alligator clips are both attached to submerged wires, however most commercial colloid makers do
have switches which must be on when using. Process stops when either or both clips are disconnected. If bulb glows visibly, proceed and let current flow for about three minutes then remove clips,
stir, and you're done. If bulb doesn't light or you see only a faint reddish glow, proceed longer.
Do not add any salt. You may observe smoke-like plumes of pure white ultra fine grain silver
against a dark background as colloid electrolytically sinters off the anode (positive polarity side
of battery; red lead) and drifts into solution. Stir thoroughly before using or storing and shake
each time before using. Three minutes activation of ~8 OZ of properly conductive water at ~72F gives~3 ppm (parts per million) strength. Each additional 10 degree F, will double ppm for a
given time. Yield also depends on water conductivity, surface area of electrodes, amount of
current, and time. ~3 minutes makes a stock solution which can be safely used full strength
for anything. But it's best to charge water by itself and add this to other foods and liquids as
desired at drink it directly. Overdosing with any amount is considered unlikely for metallic Colloid,
but silver PROTEINS can be harmful, toxic, and stain skin (Argyria).
The 24v, 40 mA miniature bulb acts as an ideal ballast, current drain indicator, current limiter,
and battery condition check for the apparatus. I found aircraft "grain-of-wheat" lamps (Precision
Lamp, Inc part #10238) in surplus for 50 cents each. You can momentarily short-circuit clip-leads together without harm; the bulb will simply light brightly. Also the visual
brightness while operating gives an accurate indication of tap water conductivity. With distilled
ordeionized (high resistance) water, you will see no glow. Make and store colloids only
in electrically non-conductive containers such as dark brown glass or plastic such as prune
juice bottles or hydrogen peroxide containers, never in metal. Suggested adult dosage of silver
colloid can be one to several OZ stock solution straight or added to 6 to 8 OZ of water taken not
more than three times in 24 hours. Consult your health professional. An 8 OZ glass may be
ingested directly with no harm or side effects according to some manufacturers.
Clean electrode wires after each use to remove dark oxide occurring on anode because
the oxygen (produced electrolytic) oxidizes silver. Cut a small piece of 1/4" thick
nylon Scotchbright TM kitchen scouring pad to polish dried silver, then wipe with paper napkin to
make silver ready for next use. A fresh set of 3 alkaline batteries will make hundreds of 8 Oz batches
of three-minute silver colloid before battery replacement becomes necessary. Periodically
check batteries by momentarily short-circuiting tips of alligator clips together to observe whiteness
and intensity of light. When bulb appears significantly dimmer or looks yellowish after time,
replace all three alkaline batteries. Pry snap connectors off, tape 3 new cells together, and
replace snap-on clips. Be VERY careful not to crush or damage the fragile little in-series lamp.
Colloid concentration and purity is readily checked by viewing back-scatter of a laser beam as it
passes through your finished solution (Tyndall/Rayleigh effect). Use a 1 to 5 mill watt laser
diode pointer (630 to 670 nanometer wavelength) that makes a small spot at several feet, not just a
"light emitting diode". Look into the beam at about a 15 degree angle (Point beam
through solution so spot hits your chin or lips. Never look directly at source; this can injure your eyes). Laser pointers retail for about $30 at some computer or parts outlets such as Fry's
Electronics Surprisingly the inexpensive pointer from Radio Shack does not perform satisfactorily for
this particular application: other Shack models (~$69) do. Stir your fresh batch with a plastic (non-conductive) fast-food disposable knife and store in a
dark brown container KEEP A WAY FROM LIGHT as even room light will degrade colloids
rapidly by turning solution gray or black just as exposure to light darkens the silver in camera film.
Light can also neutralize positive charges on silver ions that help keep particles in suspension.
Keep colloids cool but do not refrigerate or let freeze. ALWAYS SHAKE CONTAINER THOROUGHLY EACH TIME BEFORE USING. After
evaluating many different instruments and methods, this paper describes what is easily the best performing, least expensive, simplest
endmost convenient method for producing good quality silver colloids presently disclosed. It
has-been fully tested and found to work much better than expensive, dangerous and complex devices
However it does not work with metals such as gold, which require much longer times.
This standalone appliance works all by itself, and never requires high voltage, Ignition
coils, transformers, underwater sparking, or "plugging in". It goes in your pocket and will
work anywhere. It is essential for sterilizing local drinking water when traveling. You can make
any desired concentration in parts per million by electrolyzing at higher temperatures. There is
no heat or waste, and it cannot shock you. There is no need to stir during processing;
however stirring or shaking is essential before storing and each time before using. Filtering is generally
unnecessary. Don't add preservatives, minerals, EDT A, proteins, gelatin, coloring (some makers
add yellow dye to make it appear "golden" and even honey to slow precipitation), or any
other substances. If purchased at market prices commercial colloids could cost up to $60 for 8 OZ
of generally vastly inferior products. Most available colloids on today's market when
evaluated prove to be practically worthless. (At a recent health expo, in my opinion out of eight
brands tested only two were found to be adequate in quality, suspension, and concentration.
Many contained additives such as EDTA, coloring and gelatin for suspension.) This paper describes
uneasy way for anyone to make his own for only a small fraction of a penny. It seems ridiculous
to buy it for high prices. You can now afford to use colloids universally, such as in laundry water
for sterilization, as a disinfectant spray, rinse for fruit and vegetables, fungicide, bactericide,
plant spray, pet health assurance, and hundreds of other applications. Drinking dilute silver colloid
disclaimed to safely kill over 650 pathogens, viruses, microbes, fungi, and parasites within
minutes and is said to give you a second intact immune system. Side effects or overdosing are
claimed unknown, and resistant strains of disease-causing pathogens never develop. Most users
ingest lactobacillus acidophilus, burglarious, yogurt, etc to replenish friendly intestinal flora.
WARNING! Multi-level entrepreneurs hoodwinked by profit motivated promoters generally protest that their colloid is "better, finer-particle size, purer, improved suspension, more
golden, made by some expensive top secret proprietary process, etc" or other usually
absurd rationalizations to justify outrageous prices. Just offer to test both at an independent laboratory. This do-it-yourself process makes a perfectly satisfactory colloid with a four year track record
of excellent results. Should you wish to make "golden yellow" silver colloid, simply start with 8 Oz hot distilled water, add no salt or soda or other ionizing material, and leave electrodes in for 30minutes. Keep very dark. You'll easily produce a "golden" color. And beware of
products describing themselves as "Silver Protein" compounds. These may be toxic and can cause
tissue and skin staining (argyria) such as does Silver Nitrate.
A FEW UNIQUE PLUS TRADITIONAL USES FOR SILVER COLLOID
For information and educational purposes only, not medical advice.
When you control a source of penny-per-gallon make-it-yourself high concentration silver
colloid see attached how-to page) you can use it for hundreds of health improvement applications. A
freeware suggested here. You can use most tap water to make colloid for industrial and external
uses and distilled or de-ionized water for internal or inject able applications. Add to suspected drinking water when traveling or camping. Colloid sprayed burns heal
rapidly without scarring. Safely sterilize anything from toothbrushes to surgical instruments. Use topically on cuts, wounds, abrasions, rashes, sunburn. razor nicks, bandages. Spray on garbage to prevent decay odors. Mist kitchen sponges, towels, cutting boards to eliminate E. Coli 0157:H7
and salmonella bacteria to prevent food poisoning, gastrointestinal inflammation, and genital
tract infections. Add when canning, preserving, bottling. Use like peroxide on zits and acne. Add to juices.
Milk will delay spoiling, fermenting, deteriorating, clabbering or curdling. Spray in shoes, between
toes, between legs to stop most skin itch, athletes foot, fungi, jock itch. Diminish dandruff,
psoriasis, skin rashes, etc. Add to bath water, gargle, douches, colon irrigation, nasal spray and
dental water-pic solutions. Cuts downtime dramatically with colds, flu,
pneumonia,-staph, strap, respiratory infections and rhino viruses. Skin itch, eye and ear infections, some moles and
warts vanish when colloid is sprayed on body after bathing. Use with a-tip on fingernail, toenail, and
ear fungi. Neutralize tooth decay and bad breath. Colloid stops halitosis by eliminating bacteria
deepen throat and on back of tongue. Unlike pharmaceutical antibiotics, silver colloid never
permits strain-resistant pathogens to evolve.
Put a few drops on band-aids and bandages to shorten healing times. Health professionals
might consider IV and IM injections. Tumor and polyp shrinking is reported when masses are
injected directly (when colloid is added to sterile physiological saline or Ringer's Solution which contains9000 ppm sodium chloride). Toothaches, mouth sores, bacterial irritations are diminished.
Soak dentures. Spray refrigerator, freezer and food storage bin interiors. Stop mildew and wood rot.
Mix in postage stamp, envelope, and tape moistening wells, paint and paste pots to
prevent bacterial growth, odors, spoiling or souring. Add to water based paints, wallpaper
paste, dishwater, cleaning and mopping solutions, etc. Spray pet bedding and let dry.
Spray on top of contents of opened jam, jelly, and condiment containers and inside lids
before replacing. Mix a little in pet water, birdbaths, cut flower vases. Always add to swamp
cooler water. Spray air conditioner filters after cleaning. Swab air ducts and vents to prevent
breeding sites for germs. Use routinely in laundry final rinse water and always before packing
away seasonal clothes. Damp clothes or towels and washcloths will not sour or mildew.
Eliminate unwanted microorganisms in planter soils and hydroponics systems. Spray plant foliage to
stop fungi, molds, rot, and most plant diseases.
Treat pools, fountains, humidifiers, Jacuzzis, hot tubs, baths, dishwashers, circulating
cooling tower water, gymnasium foot dips, and bath and shower mats. Spray inside shoes, watch
bandstand gloves and under fingernails periodically. Treat shower stalls, tubs, fonts, animal
watering troughs, shavers to avoid trading germs. Rinse fruit and vegetables before storing or using.
Put in cooking water. Human and animal shampoos become disinfectants. Prevent carpets,
drapes, wallpaper from mildewing. Wipe telephone mouthpieces, pipe stems, headphones, hearing
aids, eyeglass frames, hairbrushes, combs, loofas. Excellent for diapers and diaper rash.
Do toilet seats, bowls, tile floors, sinks, urinals, doorknobs. Kill persistent odors. Rinse
invalid's pillowcases, sheets, towels and bedclothes.
There are literally thousands of other essential uses for this ridiculously inexpensive,
odorless, tasteless, colorless, totally benign and easily produced powerful non-toxic disinfectant and
healing agent. You'll find that a spray or misting bottle of silver colloid solution may be the most
useful health enhancement tool in your environment.
