- Note: due to new postal shipping regulations DX is now adding significantly more packaging material to pack these super strong magnets. This also ensures safe and speedy delivery of the magnets.
- Electrically conductive 
- Can also be used to extend protected lithium batteries with recessed contact points (like protected 18650, CR123A, 14500 etc).
- Super strong -- once they get stuck to each other it's takes a lot to pull them apart
- Perfect for sticking notes on fridge doors
- Great for DIY projects

Ownership verified by DX Great magnets
Posted by Tokudai on 8/12/2008
Involvement: Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

Price: starstarstarstarstar
Ease of Use: starstarstarstarstar
Build Quality: starstarstarstar
Usefulness: starstarstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstarstarstar

Pros: Great price
Super strong for the size
Handy for lots of little stuff


Cons: None to note


Other Thoughts: So far, I've used these to make some magnets for the fridge from hot wheels and that laying down sniper green army guy, help keep the shower curtain closed, invisible holdbacks for my living room drapes - I even inserted one in a little piece of a cut sponge and used it to clean a decorative glass vase (with another magnet on the outside of the vase to "drag" it around the inside)
I haven't even started with the fun stuff yet!


Bottomline: Handy, fun and useful - get a bunch of sizes


Ownership verified by DX Great little magnets

Overall Rating: starstarstarstarstar

Pros: -Inexpensive
-Very powerful
-Perform really well


Cons: None!


Other Thoughts: I purchased these magnets to use as spacers for batteries and afix notes and photos to the fridge. They perform wonderfully for both tasks. Very difficult to pry apart or remove from a steel surface. One magnet will hold several sheets of paper vertically in place. I was also having some contact issues with AA and AAA batteries in an inexpensive battery charger. Adding one of the these magnets to the positive end of the battery solved the problem. I have heard that these magnets break easily, but that hasn't been my experience.


Bottomline: You won't regret buying these magnets. Lots of uses and priced right.


Ownership verified by DX Very nice thing

Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

Pros: extremely strong.
many options to use
fun thing to play with - they hold together in most cases :)


Cons: Can broke very fast after a harder hit. I already broke 6 of them.
Expected them to be larger, they are really small. If you want to have stronger magnets, decide buying, for example, 20mm diameter.


Other Thoughts: Can be used to extend batteries - i never thought about that.
As they can broke, it is worth to buy larger quantities - where is an option of 100 units, as i remember


Bottomline: Buy and have nice time with it !


Ownership verified by DX very strong pull, but fragile magnets

Pros: Very strong and fun to play with. They have many uses. My latest is combining them with some steel on my table to hold up my apple remote near my bed.


Cons: Fragile.
They are smaller than I expected, but I didn't really think about how small 8 mm really is. I find myself losing the entire bag easily, in fact I don't remember where they are right now.


Other Thoughts: The packaging is very minimal, just a very small zip-top bag.


Bottomline: They are fragile, but very fun. I fully intend to purchase more, though probably of a larger size in the hope that they are more robust.
