>- They kill primarily through the introduction of metal ions. Copper is known as a strong anti-bacterial, for example. Silver is as well.
Not even reasonably true or correct for most zapper users. Even when the electrodes such as stainless steel, or even better, titanium, bacteria, protozoa, ets are killed. Titanium is not easily soluble and does not have much of a toxic effect under electromotive force. Additionally, it is easy to show that the ringing caused by the sharp leading and trailing edges of a square wave can cause the death of many microbes. Filtering the signal to produce a slower rise and fall time will reduce effectiveness but will not significantly change either the total power applied or the number of ions produced.
It is also easy to show that voltages as low as 1.5 volts at micro-ampere current can kill bacteria over time and this is not enough to create any significant metal ions. The introduction of positive DC square waves improves and speeds the result.
Additionally, There is a way of reducing the free metal ions while increasing the voltage of the square wave, doubling the effectiveness.
>- This is why lower frequencies are said to be more effective in a zapper. Lower frequencies are turned "on" waveform-wise much longer, giving more time for the positive ions to be released.
Another complete misunderstanding. Regardles of the mode or the frequency, that zapper as well as most zappers, outputs a 50 percent duty cycle. This means that out of each minute that the zapper is on, the positive voltage and current flows for 30 seconds.
>- you will temporarily feel well from a zapper usage, but then will steadily worsen. You will be in actuality, feeding your unwelcome visitors
You, obviously have not read "
parasite Zapping and the Zapper" as it explains how to avoid the copper ions, almost completely.
>- Another danger is that copper itself can be poisonous. Those with diseases like Wilson's disease should not use a copper electrodes. Use graphite electrodes instead
Bunk! Graphite is a poor conductor compared to most metals. It is less conductive than NiChrome which is designed for higher resistance.
Conductivity
Silver 6.30×10^7
Copper 5.96×10^7
Titanium 2.38×10^6
Stainless 1.45×10^6
Graphite 2 * x 10^5
This means that copper is 300 times as conductive as graphite. Therefore, graphite is close to 1/300th as effective in producing results.
>- Zappers may also kill organisms through other more minor ways, such as hydrolysis, induced magnetic fields, and the creation of heat.
While they can have effects through these mechanisms, it is highly unlikely to occur with significance in normal usage. All of these things would occur in a very localized area and as a result, have a very limited effect overall, even locally.
>- But overall, frequency is not an important factor in the zapper effect.
How extensively have you studied zappers and their effects? Your statements do not very well agree with my thousands of hours and dollars spent as well. While there is a general effect caused by the rising and falling edges of a waveform, there is also a specific resonance that can produce better results for any specific microbe. The very reason that we are producing zappers with more accurate frequencies is that we find that the closer to an exact frequency that you get, the better the ressults. If he were alive, I would recommend spending some time with R.R.Rife. but there are many others who can provide a lot of education in this respect.
