To help keep the anode clean using no more than 1 mA per square inch of surface area of silver. If you have a heated/magnetic stirrer you can up the current to between 10 mA & 15 mA of current. To have a circuit that automaticly adjusts for the anode size will make the circuit much more complicated. The anode that you choose will be used for years so you really don't need an automatic circuit. You can build a (inexpensive) very simple circuit for making IS/CS just out of a CLD(current limiting diode), 3- 9 volt batteries( you can build a voltage multiplier 9VDC to 40VDC) using just a single chip. You need a silver anode, DW(distilled water), beaker, timer(very important!!). A cathode that can be copper, stainless steel or titanium. The cathode only gives up electrons, the anode is where you get the silver from. Using faraday's laws you can figure mg of silver/ppm using the time, current & volume of distilled water your beaker holds. You can make this in a single day for under $10.00, the silver will be a larger expense(depending on the size). I have two anodes, one is 1ozt 99.99% Silver Maple Leaf, the other is 1ozt 99.99% 10 guage silver wire 20 inches long(this is a surface area of 6.4 square inches) you won't be putting all of this under the DW just part so measure and subtract the amount above the DW. Then you take your current 15mA divided by surface area (6.4 100% under DW)= 2.3mA/sq-inch
