To Arc Rod, Or Not To Arc Rod?

The BioCharger NG comes with the option to use the Arc Rod or the black Nylon Plug. We are often asked what the difference is. The Nylon Plug is offered as an option so that the user can operate the BioCharger NG in quiet mode. The BioCharger NG does not lose any of its effectiveness when the black Nylon Plug is used instead of the Arc Rod, but there are a few minor differences to consider.

Features of using the Arc Rod:

• The Arc Rod produces a corona discharge during the operation of a BioCharger recipe. The qualities that are associated with the corona discharger are as follows:
  • The production of a small amount of negative ions (as occurs after a lightning storm).
  • The production of a small amount of ozone (this has been tested to be at a safe level).
  • The ions and ozone are minor additional aspects that are produced with the Arc Rod vs not being produced with the Nylon Plug.
  • Sound is produced as a result of the corona acting as a transducer moving the air just as a speaker moves air. Sound can add another beneficial dimension to the BioCharger experience when using the Arc Rod.
  • From a vital energy point of view, there is no effective difference when using the Arc Rod vs the Nylon Plug.
  • If you’d like to experience the benefits of using the Arc Rod without the sound, use a sound baffle.

 Features of using the black Nylon Plug:

• The black Nylon Plug can be substituted in place of the Arc Rod when the user would like to eliminate the sound aspect during a Recipe.
  • No ozone is produced when the Nylon Plug is used.
  • Very minimal or no negative ions are produced when the Nylon Plug is installed.
  • There is very little sound produced during operation when the Nylon Plug is used. The Plug is often preferred in an office setting or other settings where quiet operation is preferred, and there are times when a BioCharger experiencer will simply prefer quiet mode.
  • From a vital energy point of view, there is no effective difference when using the Arc Rod vs the Nylon Plug.
  • There may be a slight increase in effective intensity when the Nylon Plug is installed. This is due to removing the Arc Rod, which effectively caps off the energy that would be channeled through the Arc Rod, thereby increasing the field intensity slightly.

Choosing between the Arc Rod and the Nylon Plug is offered so that our users have options with regard to the sound that is produced during a recipe. There are a number of scenarios where quiet mode is desirable over having sound produced. There are also times when you may have a personal preference for one option over the other. For all those reasons, we offer this option as a way to modify the experience when using the BioCharger NG.
