Buyer Beware -- Not All Home Colloidal Silver Generators Are the Same!

What's the difference between the high quality home colloidal silver generators distributed by our recommended vendor, The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals, and the "cheapie" colloidal silver generators distributed by other companies? Often, it's like the difference between night and day!

Dear Colloidal Silver Fan:

       What's the difference between the "cheapie" colloidal silver generators sold by other companies, and the higher-quality generators distributed by our recommended vendor The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals? The sometimes dramatic differences in price between their home colloidal silver generators and those distributed by other companies depend largely upon three vital factors:

       Factor #1.) The quality of the electronics and their components used in the generators,

       Factor #2.) The quality of the design and construction of the generators, and...

       Factor #3.) The quality of the colloidal silver produced by the generators.

In short, the difference is QUALITY. And if you want the best quality, it becomes imperative that you know what to look for in a high-quality home colloidal silver generator.

Volkswagen or Cadillac?

       First of all, let me answer the most obvious question: why are there such large price differences between many home colloidal silver generators distributed by different companies? The answer is simple: It is for the same reason there is a large difference in price between a Volkswagen and a Cadillac. They are both cars, obviously. But the differences between them in terms of the quality of the parts used to build them, the overall construction of the vehicles, the performance of the vehicles, and the long-term endurance of the vehicles are like the differences between night and day. If factors such as quality, construction, performance and endurance do not matter to you, then naturally you would buy the Volkswagen and pay a lot less. But if quality, construction, performance and endurance is very important to you, then you would spend the extra money on the Cadillac.

       The same thing is true with home colloidal silver generators. There are "Cadillacs" and there are "Volkswagens." That is, there are "cheapie" models that use inferior electronics, inferior construction and produce an inferior silver colloid (that can ultimately harm you). And there are high quality models (such as those distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals) that use superior electronics, superior construction, and produce a consistent high-quality silver colloid that is comparatively safe and effective. Knowing the difference between the two is absolutely vital, because what is at stake is your ability to produce consistent batches of high-quality colloidal silver v/s inferior quality colloidal silver which could be harmful to your health and well-being!

       So let's take a look at some of the BIG differences between the various home colloidal silver generators on the market today, and the home colloidal silver generators distributed by our recommended vendor The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals, since these important differences can dramatically impact your ability to produce a high-quality colloidal silver solution:

       Big Difference #1: "Mud Makers" v/s Colloidal Silver Generators - Low-voltage home colloidal silver generators have been derogatorily referred to as "mud makers" by some critics. And in many cases we believe this charge is accurate. Why? Because unlike the specially designed low-voltage home colloidal silver generators distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals, many of the little "cheapie" models being sold today produce way too much electrical current. (We are talking about the balance between the voltage and the amperage, which determines the wattage. Although nearly all other manufacturers seem to be fixated solely on the voltage, achieving the proper wattage is the singular key to producing the highest quality colloidal silver possible with a low voltage home colloidal silver generator.)

       Unfortunately, many manufacturers and distributors of the little "cheapie" low-voltage home colloidal silver generators are completely unaware of this basic fact! When the voltage and the amperage are not strategically balanced to produce the proper wattage for generating a high-quality silver colloid, you get a generator which produces far too large of a silver particle size -- so large in fact, that they could be potentially dangerous. Because of the overly-large silver particles produced by these generators, there may even be a danger of potentially toxic long-term accumulation in the body's tissues and organs. The human body simply cannot consistently and effectively process and use the overly large silver particles produced by many low-voltage home colloidal silver generators on the market today.

       Additionally, when the electrical current (again, we are talking about the strategic balance between the voltage and the amperage, which is what determines the proper wattage) is too high, and the silver particles being driven off the pure silver wires into the water are too large, the colloidal silver particles will quite rapidly become "scorched" by the excessive electrical current, producing a muddy brown looking solution. Hence, the derogatory term "mud makers" has rightly been applied by critics to many of these "cheapie" little low-voltage home colloidal silver generators.

But the Low-Voltage Units Distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals Are Different...

       Fortunately, the manufacturer of the colloidal silver generators distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals has overcome this problem. This is why, when you run one of the cheap "Brand X" home colloidal silver generators side-by-side with a generator distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals, you will see that after about 30 to 40 minutes of running time the solution produced by the "Brand X" generator will have turned a murky, muddy brown color. On the other hand, the solution produced by the home colloidal silver generators distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals will remain a beautiful silvery-clear color.

       This is because the manufacturer of the generators distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals has taken the time and added expense to calibrate their generators with special electronics to properly balance the electrical current between the voltage and the amperage in order to produce the precise wattage needed for generating safe, pure colloidal silver. By spending the extra money in quality electronics components to achieve this strategic balance, they have been able to properly limit the size of the silver particles being driven off the silver wires and into the water. This special calibration prevents the formation of the "muddy" solution, because you are not producing overly large silver particles (relatively speaking), and you are not scorching your silver particles with an excessively high electrical current.

       Although we have tested many of the little "cheapie" home colloidal silver generators against those distributed by our recommended vendor The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals, we have yet to find even ONE which spends the extra money and time to calibrate their generators in this vital manner to enhance your ability to produce a high-quality colloidal silver solution on a consistent basis.

       Here are some clues to watch for when you want to distinguish a home colloidal silver generator that produces superior, high-quality colloidal silver, from a less effective generator that doesn't:

       Big Difference #2: Controlled Particle Size Range - Although you do not want to produce an overly large silver particle size, you do want to choose a generator that produces a stable colloid with a controlled range of particle sizes. Daryl Tichy, the famous independent colloidal silver researcher from Brigham Young University who has been written up in the newspapers recently for his work with colloidal silver v/s the AIDS virus and other serious pathogens, has demonstrated in his research that different pathogenic microorganisms respond to different silver particles sizes. You have probably read that colloidal silver has been shown to be effective against over 650 different pathogenic microorganisms. What you've likely not been told is that there is no single silver particle size that is effective against all of these different pathogens.

       For example, a pathogen that causes food poisoning may respond best to a silver particle size of, say for the sake of example, .5 microns (that's five one-tenths of a micron -- a fraction of the size of a normal human blood capillary). But a pathogen that causes pneumonia might respond best to a silver particle size of say, .05 microns (that's five one-hundredths of a micron -- many multiples smaller than a normal human blood capillary). Therefore, colloidal silver generators that are touted to produce solutions consisting of a single particle size are simply not as effective as generators that can produce a controlled range of silver particles. To produce a colloidal silver solution that can kill the vast majority of the 650 different pathogens colloidal silver is said to be effective against, you must have a generator that produces a controlled range of silver particle sizes.

       This is why the manufacturer of the home colloidal silver generators distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals has calibrated his generators to produce a stable silver colloid in a particle size range as low as .5 microns to .05 microns. Again, that's five-tenths of a micron, to five one-hundredths of a micron. It is a range that is many times smaller than the size of a normal human blood capillary (which is usually between seven to 10 microns) in diameter. This means toxic buildup under normal common-sense usage is next to impossible. Yet it is broad enough to be effective against the vast majority of the 650 different pathogens colloidal silver is said to be effective against! (Again, the notable exception to this rule is the new "Micro-Particle" Home Colloidal Silver Generator, which produces ultra-small silver particles as low as .0008 microns (that's eight one-thousandths of a micron) in size; see information at the end of this newsletter for more details on this phenomenal new unit.)

       Here are a few more clues to look for in terms of distinguishing a high-quality home colloidal silver generator from a less effective model:

       Big Difference #3: High Quality Electronic Components - It never ceases to amaze us that when people are looking to purchase a home colloidal silver generator, they tend to look solely at the price, and rarely at the quality of the electronic components used to construct the generator! So do yourself a favor and let the following piece of common-sense wisdom be a basic guideline for you when you are looking to purchase a home colloidal silver generator: If a home colloidal silver generator is priced dramatically below the cost of similar models made by other companies, it was likely manufactured using cheap, poor quality electronic components. In the trade, these generators are called "throwaways," because you use them ten or twelve times until their cheap electronic components burnout, and then you throw them away.

       This is why the crudely manufactured little "cheapie" home colloidal silver generators usually carry a warranty of maybe 30 or 90 days, if at all! They are simply not built to endure. The electronic components used in them are rated for maybe 500 to 1,000 hours of use, and often significantly less. They cost less, because the parts used to build them cost a lot less. On the other hand, home colloidal silver generators such as those distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals are somewhat more expensive, but they are built with extremely high quality electronic components rated for a minimum of 10,000 hours at peak use. And unlike the generators distributed by other companies, the manufacturer of the generators distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals has strategically modified his generators so that they operate ultra-efficiently at only 1/10th of peak use. This means that the electronics components in these generators are theoretically good for 100,000 hours! In other words, the generators distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals are literally built to last a lifetime.

       This is why you have a full one-year warranty when you purchase a home colloidal silver generator from The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals, rather than some laughable 30 or 90 day warranty. It is why, as of this writing, after having distributed thousands upon thousands of colloidal silver generators (including many to missionaries operating under harsh conditions in obscure villages throughout Africa, South America and Asia), they have had less than one dozen units returned for minor repairs -- an amazing record! And two of those units had clearly been dropped from a height! Yet in each case those units were repaired or replaced immediately and they were quickly shipped back to their owners. This is one more reason why we firmly stand by our recommendation of The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals for the finest, high-quality colloidal silver generators possible.

       In contrast, in just the past few months we have purchased colloidal silver generators from other distributors that did not last past five batches of colloidal silver! One "plug in" model being distributed by a well-known manufacturer only lasted through two batches of colloidal silver before the electronic components shorted out. The generator is now useless. And it cost us $139.95. The full retail cost of one of the "plug in" models distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals (i.e., their AC/DC Dual-Powered unit, which allows you to operate from standard household 110/115 current, or from batteries) is about $40 higher than the competitor's plug-in model. But as of this writing, The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals tells us they have never had one of their units burn-out on a customer. In short, in terms of overall quality, endurance and performance, you truly get what you pay for.

Additional Important Differences

       There are several more important differences between the low-voltage home colloidal silver generators distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals and those distributed by other companies. And while these additional differences may not affect your ability to produce high-quality colloidal silver solutions, they do offer good illustrations of the kind of extra quality in craftsmanship and design which you get when you purchase a generator from The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals For example, some of their innovative features include...

Innovations and Breakthroughs You Can Depend Upon --
Such as the Brand New "Micro-Particle" Home Colloidal Silver Generator!

       These are the kinds of dramatic innovations and breakthroughs you can depend upon from the manufacturer of the generators distributed by The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals. They are why more people select The Silver Edge Health & Nutritionals than any other company for home colloidal silver generators! And this is why we firmly stand by our recommendation of this company to anyone who wants to own a high-quality home colloidal silver generator.

       For example, consider their new "Micro-Particle" Home Colloidal Silver Generator. Over a year and a half in development, this model has been specifically designed to produce micro-particles of colloidal silver as low as .0008 microns in size - so small they are completely invisible to the naked eye, and unlike all other forms of colloidal silver they are barely visible even when you shine a laser light through the solution. This is as close to "dissolved" silver particles as you can get, requiring the use of a powerful Transmission Electron Microscope operating at 175,000x magnification to see and measure the particles. Compared to generators that produce standard sized silver particles (such as the units described above), "micro-particle" silver is thought to be vastly more effective against hard-to-kill viruses and other deep-seated microorganisms such as those in the mycloplasmas family of pathogens which are now implicated in the onset of numerous forms of chronic degenerative disease including cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, Crohn's colitis, Type II diabetes, multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's disease, Wegener's disease, and collagen-vascular diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer's.

       In fact, experts say the micro-particle silver produces literally phenomenal healing results, particularly in "acute care" situations involving serious deep-seated infections where prescription antibiotics or even standard colloidal silver has failed to work, or in situations where some form of chronic degenerative disease associated with mycoplasmas infection has set in. For example, it has been widely reported that Dr. Darryl See, M.D., former co-director of the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia Clinic at the University of California at Irvine has been having incredible success treating patients with micro-particle colloidal silver. According to Health Sciences Institute, Dr. See says he has witnessed the DNA-PCR tests of many of his patients with known mycoplasmas infections turn from positive to negative with the use of these tiny silver particles (see Mycoplasmas as agents of human disease, Health Sciences Institute, Vol. 2, #10, April 1998.) This offers profound hope to millions who suffer from such debilitating hidden infections and the subsequent chronic degenerative diseases these insidious microorganisms can cause.

       In summary, the new Micro-Particle Home Colloidal Silver Generator is specifically designed to produce a significantly smaller range of silver particles that can be used in cases of acute, long-term chronic degenerative diseases where "stealth pathogens" such as those from the mycoplasmas family are suspected. This brand new unit normally retails for $339.95 plus $10 s&h.
