How to make your own Colloidal Silver Generator and Colloidal Silver
December 18, 2011
Silver Colloid production at 27 volts is very effective. I have made my own for YEARS, and I have had NO problems. This can be accomplished as a result of wiring three 9volt batteries together. Radio Shack has everything but the foam and the silver wire! I bought the green foam at JoAnn Fabrics. With my first generators, I just used plastic shopping bags to fill in the empty space in the Project boxes! It’s simply to keep the batteries from moving around.
You will need:
three 9 volt transistor radio batteries
three 9v battery snap-on connectors
two 2 1/4 in. insulated-Grip Alligator Clips,
a couple feet of Hook-up Wire (rated 300 volts/20 gauge)
a small Project Enclosure box to put it all in (5×2.5×2 inches)
some Insulated Terminal Butt Connectors for 22-26 gauge wire
a gauged Wire Stripper/Cutter
some type spongy-foam cushioning to keep the batteries from rattling around in the box
10″ of pure silver wire (.999 fine).
Honestly, this is very simple. Radio Shack has everything you need to make the generator. You have to order the silver from a jeweler.

Using the Terminal Butt Connectors, connect the three snap-on battery clips in series (red to black) to provide 27 volts. Next, using the Terminal Butt Connectors, join about 10 inches of the Hook-up wire to the two dangling wires at the two ends of the joined snap-on clips. (One of the snap-on clip wires will be red and the other black.) Attach insulated alligator clips to the Hook-up wires, making sure that the red – (positive) is attached to the Hook-up wire coming from the red cap wire and the black insulated alligator clip is attached to the to the negative – coming from the black clip wire.
I burned two little openings for the wire to hang out of the box. I used a soldering iron to melt the plastic.
Cut your 10″ of silver wire in half. Bend top ends of your two 5″ silver electrode wires so they can clip over the top rim of a glass cup or jar (not metal). About 4″ of each wire should be submerged WARNING! Use ONLY pure silver (.999 fine) electrodes. #14 gauge is the preferred thickness.
Do not confuse sterling silver (.9275) with pure silver since sterling also contains other metals. With this in mind, you may want to have a chemical analysis (assay) of your purchased silver in addition to the written word of your supplier.
If the Silver Colloid is to be ingested, be sure to use distilled water. Tap water is fine for other uses, such as for plants.
On Using Salt – Don’t!
Regardless of what anyone has said to the contrary, silver chloride will ALWAYS form if any amount of salt is present. Never add anything to the water that will make the water conduct electricity better. Never add salt, sea salt, or Celtic sea salt to the distilled water because the salt puts chloride ions in the water that react with the silver to form silver chloride.
Another serious problem arises when making colloidal silver with salt in the water. The presence of salt increases the electrical conductivity of the water and this dramatically speeds up the reaction. As the reaction speeds up under these circumstances, it produces larger particles. The product produced is invariably cloudy-white in appearance. Actual electron microscope photographs of this material show silver particles in the range of .05 to .15 microns. These particles are TOO LARGE to form a colloidal suspension, and the proof is that the material will settle to the bottom of the container in a very short period of time. Therefore, this home brewed “colloidal silver” product may be dangerous to consume internally for TWO reasons: the presence of silver chloride and the production of large particles.
Always use distilled water! Do not want to take any chances of making anything other than an elemental solution of colloidal silver water! Colloidal Silver is not a chemical compound containing Silver, but pure metallic silver of submicroscopic clusters of just a few atoms, held in suspension in pure water, by the tiny electric charge on each atom. Metallic Silver (Colloid) is non-toxic, however, silver nitrate and other compounds of silver are, and should not be ingested.
Now you’re ready to make Colloidal Silver. Pour distilled water into your glass. Hang the silver electrode wires over the edge of the glass or jar. Try to place them on opposite sides, and make sure they do not touch each other or the process will stop, and the battery life will be shortened. (You cannot shock yourself in this process so do not be concerned.) Attach alligator clips to the ends of the silver electrode wires coming over the outside rim, and you will see a whitish-grey mist inside the glass start to peel away from the positive polarity wire, while bubbles of hydrogen rise from the other. Laboratory tests show that this method creates a silver colloid of approximately 1 ppm-per minute, of activation time. Since you are only taking microscopic particles from the silver wire, your silver wire should last for years, and a fresh set of batteries should last a year or more.
When finished, detach alligator clips. Clean silver electrode wire after each use to remove dark oxide that will be on one wire, the anode. Use a small piece of 1/4″ thick nylon kitchen scouring pad to polish dried silver, then wipe with paper napkin to make ready for next use. Store your Colloidal Silver in dark glass bottles, or dark, non-conductive (and if plastic, non-reactive) containers, like empty hydrogen peroxide bottles.
Keep away from light as even room light will degrade colloids rapidly by turning solution grey or black just as exposure to light darkens the silver in camera film. Stir thoroughly or shake each time before using. Keep cool, but do not refrigerate.
In using your own home-made silver colloid generator it will become apparent that you now have the power to safely protect yourself, your family, your pets and plants, from over 650 pathogens, viruses, microbes, fungi and parasites.
The Process:
1. Curve the top of the electrodes (the two 5 in. silver wires) so that they look like little canes.
2. Hang the wires on top of an *8 oz. jar or glass full of distilled water, with the electrodes protruding into water. The electrodes should be almost completely immersed. Never let the electrodes come into contact with each other, as this will quickly drain the batteries. *(I usually use a 32 oz. mason jar!)
3. Attach an alligator clip to each silver wire, and the process will begin. Sometimes you will see absolutely nothing happen for 45 minutes or more! Believe it or not, the environment (lunar cycles…) affects how long it takes to generate!
It is nearly impossible to standardize colloidal silver. Silver is reactive to a number of natural forces that have yet to be identified. Even when the voltage, the water, and the water temperature are identical, different batches will proceed at different rates on different days. The speed of the reaction can vary by over 100% depending on the day. On “normal” days, the reaction is proceeding well, by 15 minutes, with a visible cloud of particles. On “slow days” it may take 30 minutes or more before any visible production of particles begins. Because of this variation, it is always wise to observe the reaction with a strong flashlight so you can see how quickly the reaction is happening. Once the “cloud” starts forming, time the batch for 5-10 more minutes. This is the best way to standardize your home brewed colloidal silver.
Sometimes I see the “white cloud” begin floating into the water, in 10 minutes or less. Whenever you see the “white cloud” streaming – even a little, from a wire, begin to time it. 10 ppm – 10 minutes. I usually make 10-15 ppm cs. You can shine a flashlight through the water and see the results with the light, sometimes even before your naked eye sees the difference in the water. It reflects on the silver colloids in the water. This may not be standardized, but it is true colloidal silver and it works!!
The solution ranges from virtually clear to yellowish or grayish at the end of the production. I never worry about color, as long as I am sure that all the variables were controlled and I made a true elemental silver colloid.
There are several variables which can cause different processing times, and the batches to come out differently.
• Higher water temperature will accelerate the process. (I always heat mine to very warm before I begin.)
• Any minerals in the water.
• Even phases of the moon can cause the process to vary somewhat (weird, huh?)
Store in the dark or in dark bottles to increase shelf life.
