I began experimenting with different colloidal silver generator ideas that were simple to use.  I soon began to see that these designs could be affordable to anyone. 

          We've worked through and evolved a number of different styles, each improving in ease of use (and price!).  Our most recent design, called the Silva-Cap, we feel, is unique, simple and innovative. It answers, we feel, all the difficulties in making colloidal silver at home.  View all 3 designs of Silva-Caps on our Generators page and our Accessories page.

"Agitating the Water":
Our final step in understanding quality Colloidal Silver Production

          We discovered, along with some other Colloidal Silver Generator producers that "agitating the water" is invaluable to the Colloidal Silver production process.  In fact, learning of the value of agitating the water was our final chapter in developing a very stable, high quality Colloidal Silver product. 
          I had been reading quite a bit about "agitating the water" to reduce macro-particles of colloidal silver, to better stabilize the final product after production, and most importantly to generate a higher colloidal content and less ionic silver content (which is far more desirable).  In viewing photos of agitated water, it became very apparent to me that all they were doing was pumping air in the water during the production process.  That led to purchasing a small aquarium pump to agitate the water while the generator was working.  I had no idea how radically the end product would so positively change for the better!  The stability of the colloidal silver is amazing.  I have had colloidal silver sitting in my kitchen cabinet during months when I don't need it.  It remains crystal clear and completely stable.  And it's just as potent later as the day I make it.  Whatever you do during colloidal silver production of your own, buy a pump (we offer one that I use every time I make Colloidal Silver).  Agitate the water.  It makes a huge difference in the quality of your end product.  (We offer the whole set up on our Generators page if you just wish to get started without all the shopping.)

Things you can expect by agitating the water that might differ from your previous colloidal silver production experience:

              —You will not see a cloud of silver ions coming off the positive rod.

              —You will more than likely not see the negative rod turn black unless your production period goes for several hours.

              —You will not see an amber color.  Your colloidal silver is powerful, and usually crystal clear and will remain clear and very stable over time. 
          So how do I know when my colloidal silver production is complete?  Primarily, I use a laser pen and a reliable TDS meter.  (As you have probably read, many TDS meters will only measure impurities in the water, and thus cannot provide you with an accurate measure of colloids, which are suspended in the water.  The TDS meter we sell on this site will in fact provide you with a measurement of ppm for your colloidal silver.)   When I see a dense beam of laser light across the interior of the solution, I know I have reached a very high quality level of production.

Next step: Contain all those parts, tubes and wires in a neat colloidal silver production container...
It's our version of the "little black box"

            As you can see by the photo above, you'll be able to make a GREAT, stable, crystal clear, highly colloidal end product.  But storing the pump with tubing, the transformer with wire and alligator clips, and all the cords is somewhat of a pain.  I have up till now used a plastic storage container and just dumped all the components into it for storage.  Then, when I was ready to make colloidal silver again, I just brought out the plastic container and started sorting through it and assembling what I needed to begin.
          So, it was only logical that I began trying to think of a way to neatly contain all the components when I wasn't making colloidal silver.  And that brought about our own version of the "little black box."

We took this:	And put it into this:
(Both these devices are featured and available on our Generators page.)

          I describe it tongue-in-cheek as the "little black box."  It seems that every colloidal silver generator site offers a version of the little black box.  Why not us?:-)  But as you can see by the photo, ours is completely different from anything out there.  It's because I have been unsettled by the way some of these black boxes are constructed and meant to be used.
          Safety is an issue with me.  I'm not talking about safety with regard to the quality of my colloidal silver, because I know it is incredibly safe and almost miraculous in what it can accomplish.  I am talking about electrical safety.  Have you noticed that on some sights, you're viewing a little black box sitting on top of a full open-topped jar of water?  I have some background in the electrical trade, and when I view a little black box sitting on top of a jar full of water, with a 120V cord coming out the back plugged into a standard residential wall outlet, I cringe.  It sets off the same alarms that having a hair dryer plugged in and laying near a bathtub full of water does.  And if should you too.  It's simply not safe to have a plugged-in appliance that close to water. 
           And when you're agitating the water, it increases the risk of electrical shock 10-fold.  Agitating the water generates splashing.  And if you have a 120V cord plugged into wall outlet, powering a device that is sitting atop a jar full of agitated (splashing) water.....  well, not good.
          So, you'll see that in my design, with the Silva-Cap (our own unique design), first we virtually eliminate splashing water, and thereby eliminate any mess or risk of electrical shock.  Next, you will see that our little black box is isolated and set apart from the jar of agitated distilled water during production.  MUCH safer that way.  We've taken the air pump and transformer (everything you see in the photo above), and placed them safely inside our black box.  We've then installed posts so that you can individually wrap the vinyl pump tubing, the low voltage wire with alligator clips, and the electrical cord.  Wrap each component, and you're good to go until you make colloidal silver again!  And there's even a carrying handle on the top.
          Yes, I know that our little black box might look a little goofy.  I've taken a lot of ribbing while we tested it.  (Someone even said that it reminded them of the Clampette's car as they headed for Beverly Hills.... for those of you who remember "The Beverly Hillbillies" TV show from way back when.)  But that's okay.  It works.
          This little generator is also different in another important aspect.  This generator produces colloidal silver using your choice of either DC or AC low voltage.  Some say that you can't make colloidal silver with AC voltage.  Others say that colloidal silver produced with AC voltage creates a much purer colloidal silver.  However, when using AC low voltage, you'll want to prepare to allow the unit to take much longer to produce a quality batch of colloidal silver.  DC low voltage is the more popular method of producing colloidal silver.  So I give you the choice with this generator with either AC or DC current.
          And yes, the Little Black Box is pricier by my standards because it's made from scratch.  It's available for purchase on the Generators page.  But it is GREATLY less expensive than comparable units on most websites today.  It's half the price of "the other guy's" agitated water colloidal silver generator, and has far less risk of electrical shock when in use.

          So, that's the background behind the starting of "Colloidal Silver How-To."  We wanted to offer people who are honestly ready to begin production of their own colloidal silver the materials to begin doing so right away.  And because we feel so strongly that every household should have the means to make their own colloidal silver, we've worked to make these production materials available to you at extremely affordable prices.

           I believe in colloidal silver and its benefits.  And I wanted through this website to be able to assist anyone who wishes to experience those results for a realistic financial investment.  Don't fall for the "it costs more, so it must be better" mind-frame and be convinced you need to spend hundreds of dollars to make high-quality, stable colloidal silver.  You, too, can make high-quality, stable colloidal silver at home, and greatly improve the health quality of your life and the lives of your family!
