Colloidal Silver

[Ron Mauer Sr]

Colloidal silver is easy and inexpensive to make. Parts needed are:

plastic battery holder, 2 AA
4.7K 1/4 watt resistor
Terminal strip
Silver wire, super fine, .9999, round, 12 AWG
Mason jar, 1 quart
Steam distilled water
qty 2 AA Batteries
Plastic jar lid for widemouth Mason jar

I conducted a workshop for friends a few years ago. Do it yourself for around $10. There is good information on Jim Meissner's website. Do it yourself and save a lot of money. Jim, a personal and local friend, left this reality a few years ago but his website is still here.

The trick to making good colloidal silver is to use a very low current to keep the silver particles small. It takes a little longer to make, but who cares.

I would encourage anyone to try this based upon my years with Avalon.

I wish I had more to offer than the testimony of so many.

Bless you for the reminder Ron

Blessings to all the holistic doctors who have passed in recent years helping us now.

Many blessings to Avalon whereas you only need search colloidal silver.

I've been using ionic silver, similar to colloidal, and I can't say enough times how amazing this stuff is. This summer I had a horrible infection - we thought it was urinary tract, but the tests came back negative. While waiting for the tests, I was put on Cipro (I usually argue against anti-biotics, BUT, I had an 103 degree fever) which worked, but not completely. After 10 days of this powerful pharma anti-biotic, the fever and tremors came back. I tried Ionic Silver and within three days I was back to work and feeling my energy return.

Right now the flu is rampant here and I am taking it: Silver (Ionic or Colloidal) is anti-biotic, anti-fungal, anti-viral, and it does not kill the good bacteria in your gut. You can gargle with it to fight off gum disease. Two friends of mine say it has cured them of Lyme's Disease. Another one sprays it one her bad knees and says they quickly feel better - lending evidence to the idea that many joint and arthritis problems are really bacterial infections.

In the middle Ages many of the wealthy wore silver jewelry. Since it was sterling, it was absorbed by there skin and entered the body. They possessed such an amount of silver that there skin would get a grey silver cast to it and there eye pupils would turn grey. They may have seemed like aliens to most people and because of there different pallor and eyes, they were called "bluebloods". When the Black (bubonic) Plague came along, they seemed to be immune to it. All thanks to the silver that was in there body which would kill it off.

I see silver in health food store selling for $40 for a tiny one ounce bottle, but I get it from this vendor:

The link you gave is no longer valid, but THANK YOU for making the pdf available on your own website! Lots of great info in there!

I'm trying to figure out how to make my own generator. According to the pdf, 3 volts work best. I've seen several instructions using 9 volt batteries, but couldn't I use a little 3 volt lithium battery in the same manner?

Since these batteries are so small, I'm thinking I'd need some extra copper wire and probably electrical tape (instead of alligator clips) to get the charge to the rods. Thoughts?

Just as a recommendation (though there are many other generators available, which may also be cheaper), I have this one.

There's a Euro model, too, for use with different voltage. Mine has worked perfectly for years, the little silver electrodes last almost forever (but you can buy a spare/replacement set easily and cheaply), and it creates the colloidal silver a liter at a time from distilled water, itself super-cheap and easy to buy in any hardware store.

The US version costs $229, but after that the production costs are almost zero... you can make absolutely as much as you like, for pennies.

Keep the current small to avoid large silver particles. Three volts from any DC source in series with a 4.7K resistor works great. Take your time.

[Sarah Rainsong]

Thanks, Bill. I don't think I can really swing $200+ right now, not after everything I've already spent. LOL

So I need to hook up the battery (positive side only?) to a resistor and then to the rod (in the distilled water)? I appreciate the help. My electrical knowledge is just enough to get me in trouble.

Like this?
(+)--->resistor--->Ag rod

Yes, that's basically just what a $200+ silver generator does. The extra functionality on the one I described above is that it turns itself off automatically when a certain silver saturation is reached, and also provides the same (low!) constant voltage to the two electrodes. And it has a little plastic thing, like a tiny kitchen whisk, that rotates and stirs the distilled water all the time. It's pretty simple!

But remember, the Romans treated themselves simply with a pure silver coin immersed in water or vinegar, and that worked just really fine for them.

Thanks for starting this thread, Ron!

For the more visual learners reading, this video demonstrates how you can slap together an effective DIY generator for ~$40 USD. It's quite educational and has a number of useful links for further information in the description box.

In agreement with Bill, I personally think details such as what voltage to run or how thick of a wire to use are relatively negligible; as long as the water is distilled and your wife pure silver, the rest is really just splitting hairs. Slightly-less-potent colloidal silver is better than no colloidal silver.

And here's another option for those of us who can't do it ourselves. This is the one I have: https://thesilveredge.com/

[Ron Mauer Sr]

I have been taught that the process should be slow. 3 volts in series with a 4.7K resistor is what I was taught to use. Let it work overnight. Making it fast with high current will produce large particulate that is less effective.


This is a copy of an old web page with some broken links. There is useful information in the page. Frank Keys told my friend Jim Meissner his method produced the best he has seen that was homemade.

I ordered the stuff I need to make it, but it won't be here for at least another week. (I do have some on hand already, so I'm covered for a bit.)

It'll be a fun science experiment to do with the kids, too. Anyone know of a way to test or view the silver content just as a way for the kids to more easily see the results without having to spend any more money on a meter?

Sarah as far as I know any laser pen will do the work to show the suspended particles in the water maybe any beam of light will work, also a TDS/EC meter cost very little nowadays, I bought one together with the pH meter and it cost me 57 THB (1.6 USD), buy online with any marketplace in your country, or aliexpress even cheaper.

I will build one for myself, I already bought the necessary parts, the only problem now is to get hold to a pair of nice silver rods, I have to buy local because I have no CC and the ones I found here are over priced asking 10.85 USD for 3.2g (rod length 10cm / diameter 0.2cm), current silver price is 0.67 USD per gram which gives me 2.15 USD, I suppose 8.7 USD is the labor cost for making the rods haha

Anyway, when I get mine done I will post some pics here.

Thanks Ron to create this thread.

I have had this for many years. Also, a great manual.

[Bassplayer1]

Colloidal Silver is one of the best things ever. It's one of my 'if stranded on a desert island and only allowed ten items' choices.
I'm glad to see it being mentioned here.

[thepainterdoug]

Make it, or buy it. Colloidal silver is the best thing I have ever discovered and used for my health . Been using it for 40 years. Its cured most everything .
Amazing how the pharma and medical people tried to ruin it by showing people turning blue from it. yeah perhaps if you drank 100 gallons of it
But to show how chicken people are I have told friends how great this is for years, and still they are all frightened without their doctors ok on it.
It harmless, passes out of your body in short time and unlike antibiotics, you body does not build a resistance to it.
It is the number one item I am never caught without at home or in travel.

Hi folks, here is what I came up with, it can't get simply than that.

The parts used (final product lol).


photo zooming on the 4.7K resistor as mentioned by Ron above.


and the case for the 9V battery, see it has a manual switch, I see no use for that, and when I bought this case I didn't notice that, I just want to protect the battery nothing else.. it is just a little plus


Ok, that was the equipment.. now here is the first batch I made

I made it in a dark room to avoid any light to the silver rods, this is the end of the process, see how oxidation took over one of the rods..


after I steered the rods a bit, see how that "thing" created around the rod is floating now in the solution..


the rods after a little bit of clean up, they are half dark.. half shinning..


after steering the solution, you can see the particles and no need for light or laser, particles are huge due to oxidation I guess.. anyway, the next step was to filter it using a 0.2 micron Japanese paper filter, they say that thing is used to filter nano particles, maybe it is true because when I poured the solution through, it took a little while to filter everything, the result was clear water to my eyes, no more huge particles floating around..


then I measured the thing with the TDS meter I have here.. I got 22 ppm which I think is not that bad for first time doing it.



p.s. worth mentioning, the water I used was measured too, it was supposed to be distilled water, but it was 5ppm on my meter.. then subtract it from 22ppm (final result), I generated 17ppm of colloidal silver.


Tonight I am going to do some more, but this time I will use an adapter similar to those ones used to charge the phones, the thing is, the minimum voltage I could find was 3V 500mAh which is acceptable I think.. the experience above I used 9V battery 300mAh.


I already tested it in 2 situations, first I had a wound in my leg, I added colloidal there for 2 days, the wound in much better now. Second I used it with my cat, she got some sort of fungus in her nose, I cleaned up with cotton and colloidal, now her nose is pink again (natural color), it was dark brow before.


Now I need some help here, I took a teaspoon a day after I had done it, but hey it is bitter, very bitter, can anyone tell how does it taste? is it supposed to taste like that? feels like eating rust or something.. for now I am not taking it internally, only for wounds, I just want to have 100% sure about the taste.

Also I made a mistake, this first batch I left running on battery for 12 hours non-stop.. I think that explain the huge particles in the water. Today will be second batch, I will run on 3V 500mAh for 6 hours and measure the results and taste.

Does anyone have links to a DIY/make your own generator, preferably a European one seeing as we have some different terminology/wattage to the US? Bit of a science numpty here, so it needs to be clear and simple. Ron's links are no longer working, I hope he's ok.

Hi Brigantia, these are the links I used to build the one I posted just above and of course this thread, the resistor thing I am not sure if I really need that, I will know better after second batch is done.
