>- the cheap zappers at dr. clark's page.

I am certain that that is not Dr. Clark's page. There are many disreputable companies that try to give you that impression.

>- i'm a little skeptical about the zappers in general too

So was I 17 years ago. Changed my mind 10 years ago when I tried one. It is cheap zappers and cheaply made zappers that give zappers a bad name.

The is a booklet, " parasite Zapping and the Zapper" for $9.95 plus postage that will provide a good education on the topic, including how to zap to get the best results, what not to do, possible problems, and things to watch for.

My first zapper was the most simple - a 9 volt battery, 2 leads with alligator clips and 2 copper handholds. It seemed to work quite well for infections, cold sores and some other problems. It was time consuming to use but whenever the commercial zapper I'm using doesn't seem to be effective I go back to using the simple device.

I built a zapper from Clark's instructions and that worked well until it fell apart. Inexpensive commercial zappers, I've found are not always reliable, one came with a defective circut and several were not effective for some types of infections. Several of these lasted for only a short time before they corroded or the plastic parts failed. I usually buy zappers which use the basic design of Clark's son. I seem to have the best results with zappers which have broad frequencies.

Clark wrote that no current flows thru the body, the effect is more like the body is a capacitor which is charged, then the effect is cut off, then charged and so forth. This seems to stun organisms and they never recover. Imagine sound from a speaker which is turned on and off rapidly.

I have found "The World's Smallest Zapper", on ebay, to be quite effective as well as cheap. It is kind of delicate though. You can tell if the zapper is working by holding the 2 conductors, copper pipes or whatever, simultaneously - but not touching each other - to your tongue briefly. If you feel a buzz, it's working.

My preference is one I can wear and they are definitely more expensive. (I add this disclaimer, just to satisfy my conscience, not trying to convert anyone of anything. The Silverado & Terminator both have something inside them called "orgone." There is zero evidence the orgone does anything whatsoever. Since the Silverado makers are into a belief system - & maybe the Terminator makers, not sure -which is antithetical to mine, I worried about anything "supernatural" added to that orgone as I know some belief systems do things like that. I just prayed whether to get them or not & felt no check, & also prayed when I got them for any negative influence to be removed. But that's just me. The Silverado was quite effective, don't know about the Terminator.)
