Super-Strong Rare-Earth RE Magnets (8mm 20-Pack)

Pros:

I love these magnets. Awesome. These little magnets are super strong, very useful for anything involving strong magnets. Works as expected. Very strong and slim. Perfect for DIY refrigerator magnets. You can glue it on objects and then have them stick to your fridge door.

Cons:

These magnets break very easy after some good falls...

Other Thoughts:

None I can think of now

Bottomline:

Buy it! They are very powerful magnets, much more so than you would think for their size, and worth the price but also consider buying a larger size if that would suit your needs better. I would have more sizes and maybe some other shapes

Pros:

Attached it to batteries with a flat positive end. Once it's attached, it's really hard to pull off.

Despite it's small size, the magnet is VERY strong. You can use it to attach notes to a ref or other DIY stuff. Also inexpensive.

Cons:

Be careful where you place it especially near watches and devices that can get damaged when near a magnet. As I've said, it's really strong.

Delivery took over two months because it's always out of stock and shipment is really slow. I almost forgot I ordered these.

Other Thoughts:

Worth every penny. I have a flashlight that does not accept batteries with recessed tops (18650, 14500) and have to resort to using copper or tin foil to make battery contact. With these magnets I don't need to use foils again.

Bottomline:

Buy it. Whether for school projects, decorations, toys, or electronics, you can be sure of the strength of these magnets. I'm already planning several projects with these. There are 10 magnets overall.

Pros:

Works Well
Easy to separate
Using them to hold things, built a box that uses these to secure lid..
Work well for temporary use in joining batteries together
Works well for holding items so they dont roll away..

Cons:

Snap easily if you let them jump together at high speeds

Other Thoughts:

Make great playthings
Worth it even if you dont know why, they will become useful sometime
also slide them apart, dont pull :)

Bottomline:

Buy them, always something you can use them for.
Just be wary when letting them come together..

Pros:

Small magnet with a nice flat shiny finish.
Very strong and slim. You will feel it's stronger than a regular magnet with 5x it's size.

Cons:

After you open the package be careful not to lose them.

Other Thoughts:

Used it to replace the decorated regular magnets from my metalic photo board. It now looks much better from any distance with the advantage of having a smooth surface wich will not scratch my pictures.

Bottomline:

Worth the investment. Some said it breaks easily, but If you're gonna use silicon glue to stick it to something else it will be okay.

Pros:

Great product
I use it to create artworks, is very convenient to use because it is thin and delicate.
Strong magnet that can hold a great weight relative to its size.
Came very quickly and packaged well.
Very reasonable price

Cons:

I do not see any disadvantages to the product
bit small and hard to pick up
Easy to lose them because they are so small

Other Thoughts:

They are a very good price, but they are not safe for children.
They make good, cheap price for someone to create a gift to friends.

Bottomline:

You should buy it especially as Art supply

Pros:

They are small but powerful, it is very hard to pry them apart. Really fun and useful... and tiny :D

Cons:

The delivery took a month and a half (I had almost forgotten about them), but other than that none that I can think of.

Other Thoughts:

It probably wasn't a good idea to order these along with electronics because they were in the same package, but everything works fine for now. I hope it stays this way.

Bottomline:

Great little magnets at a good price. Now I am going to buy a few bigger ones ;) Maybe even some neodymiums.

Pros:

These little disks are great for just about anything that requires either a magnetic field or holding a light load against a piece of metal. These are MUCH less expensive than the local magnets, and as far as I can tell (i.e. without a magnetometer) they are of similar strength.

Cons:

They are quite thin, and as a consequence are *very* fragile. It's the nature of the beast, but be sure to keep that in mind when deciding on a magnet for the job.
The price is not ideal, but bulkrate pricing and the 100 pack can offset that in larger volumes (but is still much better than local prices :P)

Other Thoughts:

Keep size in mind when purchasing! This goes double for anybody who doesn't use the metric system (or SI, depending on country)! I didn't really grasp how tiny these were until I had them in my hand, but lucky that's inconsequential to my projects.

Bottomline:

They're inexpensive, strong, plentiful, and so thin they'll fit almost anywhere you'd want to put them.
Buy 'em, they're handy.

Pros:

The Super-Strong Rare-Earth RE Magnets (8mm 20-Pack) performs just as someone might expect it to work and for the price you simply have a great purchase if you do decide to order this product. The build quality compared to price really makes this product desirable.

Cons:

Cons ......Well, for the price it is dificult to find a valid reason to not purchase if you are looking for something like this. The build quality isn't the greatest in the world, but it is satisfactory for it's intended use.

Other Thoughts:

They are not the strongest, but they are ok.

Bottomline:

Get some

Pros:

Small, Yet Powerful
They Conduct Electricity which can be useful.

Cons:

None.. they're magnets :)

Other Thoughts:

I bought a pack of these to put on terminals of batteries when charging.
These magnets will conduct electricity and they work quite well for this purpose.
I just attach my hobby chargers alligator clips to the magnets then the other side of the magnet to a battery terminal and voila you're in business.
These are also fun to just play with some times.
Just don't get'em around your credit card's :P

Bottomline:

If you need small magnets these are it, Pretty powerful given their size.
I've been using them for over 6 months for charging batteries and have had no problems.

Pros:

Great price. Besides the obvious uses, one good application is for the magnet in a cyclometer (the instrument that tracks distance, speed, etc.). They are the right size, and they are stronger than the stock magnets, which allows you to place the magnet farther from the sensor.

Cons:

Really fun to play with, but can also be used for more serious purposes, like fridge magnets

Other Thoughts:

A good way to use these are to stick them with a hot glue gun to some other object to make a better magnet that's easier to take off

Bottomline:

I see these on ebay for many times the price, with free shiping why wouldn't you buy them for less than $2?

Pros:

They are strong yet thin and quite small making them unobtrusive in whatever you are building. I bought these for magnetising wargaming miniature bases, but so far I've just had lots of fun mucking around with them.

Cons:

They're not the cheapest magnets around, but if you buy larger quantities the per unit price decreases.

Other Thoughts:

I wish I'd bought the 100 pack it offers much better value for money.

Bottomline:

Magnets, everybody loves them and it doesn't take much imagination to think of a few uses for them.

Pros:

Strong small magnets!
usefull for multiple purpouses...

Cons:

FRAGILE
if you drop it it can break, just like the HDD magnets, but is small.

Other Thoughts:

It's really usefull to have this magnets around. You can use them to stuck notes n your fridge, to extend bateries for chargers, for the positive contact on some 18650 cells...
I've made an adaptator using this magnets and a pair of clamps for charging 25500 li-ions on the WF139. Actually you can charge any kind of li-ion using this adaptor.

Bottomline:

Classic item from DX, fully recomended to have around.
Thanks DX for a new deal

Pros:

They are really strong and will hold up a lot of papers/grocery lists/photos ecc
They are nice looking
They are small, so they will not cover big parts of your photos which magnets normally do!

Cons:

They are a bit expensive
Very small
Will not hold cardboard
It's difficult to separate them or pick one up from the floor if it has fallen

Other Thoughts:

I use them for photos and coupons on my fridge

Bottomline:

If you like to keep stuff on your refrigerator buy them. They are so much better than "normal" magnets, and smaller too (so you wont cover large areas of your photos, grocery lists or whatever).

Pros:

These are great little magnets for extending batteries. I am using 20 of them to both extend and raise a 14500 cell so that the contacts are made with the DSD charger (SKU 936) and it's working wonderfully.

Cons:

Well, 1 of the 20 is a bit thinner than the rest, i.e. not a full mm. This isn't a big issue for my purposes, but if you have a precise use for these, a homemade wind turbine perhaps, then the consistency of the magnets may be a concern. Although 1 in 20 isn't a bad reject rate for the price.

Other Thoughts:

If you have a need for this size magnet then buy them. Might as well get more than you think you'll need because they are handy to have around.

Bottomline:

Much better price than the local department store; acceptable quality/consistency.

Pros:

Small and very thin magnets, perfect for DIY refrigerator magnets or other technical uses
I would rate these as medium strength magnet myself since iv had magnets this size that were more powerful.

Cons:

I would say they are small, but they are exactly as big as described so not really a con

Other Thoughts:

If you need some cheap magnets for holding stuff on the fridge or whatever and these fits you needed measurements get em! Probably wont find cheaper elsewhere anyway.

Bottomline:

Cheap magnets, medium strength or powerful compared to ordinary magnets. Good for various DIY projects!

Pros:

Super cheap magnets comparing to any one you can find on any site including ebay.... Great for children craft or to use to stick cool things on your fridge. You can print some pictures and attach them on any metal surface. For the size of the magnets they are incredibly strong!!

Cons:

When I received the items, the magnets fell to the floor and some were chipped or broken... Low build quality, but anyway strong magnets!

Bottomline:

Very cheap magnets for school crafts, DIY small jobs or simply to decorate!

Pros:

I think they are pretty cheap. Nevertheless, the workmanship is quite impressive. Magnetic force is impressive, unfortunately there is no instrument to measure it.
If you lack the strength of a magnet, you can add 2, 3 or more for a larger force.

Cons:

Some magnets have been damaged during shipment, it is possible disadvantages of manufacturing.
Not specified in the description of the magnetic force (N-rating) and their polarization. Polarization pointed to one of my uploaded photos.
Until I found other shortcomings - the magnets they are the magnets.

Other Thoughts:

You can list the many uses these magnets.
With them you can produce electricity generator or BLDC motor.
I'd love to have the magnets with polarization along the top of the cylinder (the face). They would be even easier to use for the manufacture of engine rotors.

Bottomline:

As already mentioned, not all countries can buy magnets of rare metals. In this sense, the DX is a convenient way to purchase, especially in small towns or small settlements - enough only to work the postal office. We would recommend DX expand the range of magnets, including to increase their size and add parallelepipeds (bricks) with polarization along the short edge. Thanks DX.

Pros:

very strong magnets
there's 20 of them so you can use them for 20 different things
i managed to lift a 3kg metal
they can "interact" through your hand, and even through approximately 7cm

Cons:

chip easily if you drop them
price could be lower
much smaller than you think
might vary in color

Other Thoughts:

you can do many things with these magnets
i use them to hold some tools, post stuff on the fridge or a metal post board, hold my zippos etc. i am not a collector, but these babies are great for whatever purpose you need them

Bottomline:

if you need them, buy them and enjoy them

Pros:

- Magnet is though small, but despite unreality strong. Used be him like holder metal tools. One this magnet retains for example big pincers. Magnets I'm used like invisible holder tools. Really unbelievably strong! Has power and through various materials.
- Building quality is good - proportions exact terms...

Cons:

Disadvantage be about only his size. Is small for manipulation.

Bottomline:

Splendid supplement for handyman behind adequate price that the will find exercise in consumer sector and at production personal magnetic needle

Pros:

+ Very usefull for extending batteries or fixing things into metal things
+ Quality materials used
+ They dont break easily
+ They are stroooooong enough to "lift" a 5kg metal rod
+ Is a pack of 20, enough quantity for much uses
+ They seems to be more expensive than they are
+ Adecuate size for extending 10440 batts
+ Silver color looks expensive, "original" product
+ Good to have in your neodymiun magnets collection

Cons:

- A bit expensive
- Could be a pack of 50 for this price
- Some "discs" have different colors than others (slightly different tone)

Other Thoughts:

Be carefull when handling this magnets. They are too strong
NEVER approach them to electronic devices as hard disks, USB flash drives, mobile phones, etc... they can damage the devices or delete the information (as all magnets in the world)

Bottomline:

Neodymiun magnets are difficult to find in most countries.
DX solds them with different sizes and shapes.
There is no reason to not to have all the different sizes they sell, specially the most cheap ones.
I consider it a 100% recommended product. Buy it if you need good magnets for any work.

Pros:

They are strong, really strong magnets, it is fun for a while to play with them.
I have my refrigerator full with the magnets when I got bored of them

Cons:

The quality of the little magnets is not very good, they are quite average, so you wil probably break some of them if you play with them a lot.
It is not a big deal because they are cheap and I knew that their quality was not very big when I bougth them

Bottomline:

They can be fun for teach little children how magnets work… but don’t let little children play with them withouth supervision because they are very small and they could eat them
They are cheap, so they are a good toy to entertain until you break them or you get bored of them

Pros:

- Very strong magnets
- seemes to be covered by nickel or tin to prevent corosion
- the price is very good. you can't find these for that price in europe.
- fun to play with

Cons:

- They are a bit fragile. I played a bit with them ad broke 2 in half.
- Thay really are very small. If you need them for a diy project draw a circle with a diameter of 8mm on a piece of paper to get an idea.
- One of the magnets i received was chipped

Other Thoughts:

Cheap
I might buy som bigger ones

Bottomline:

Cheap, average quality

Pros:

Strong hold.
Look pretty neat.

Cons:

Small, Its a little big a of challenge to take off a magnet from the stack (Gotta use your nails).
This isn't really a con, but sometimes their so strong their a bit difficult to take off of things.

Other Thoughts:

I didn't notice that they were going to be so small despite knowing what 8mm is, I ignored that by accident.
But because they are still pretty good magnets I'll still use them (I had no particular reason for buying them anyways).

Bottomline:

Good price, Good deal, Great value. Recommended purchase if you know how big they are.

Pros:

You can have a lot of fun to play with these magnets! There are very powerfull contrary at what they look. These funny magnet are very small so thez don't take a lot of place. These magnet are very usefull for your fridge because they are little and very powerfull! This purchase include a lot of little magnet.

Cons:

they are very small are VERY fragile! They are too much powerfull for these fragility.

Bottomline:

these strong magnets are a very good purchase for your fridge but pay attention because they are Very fragile!!!

Pros:

These magnets are very powerful, and I guess useful as well for those who need good magnets. These are actually very funny to play with, and obviously worth the few bucks you pay for them.

Cons:

The magnets are VERY VERY fragile. I've only had them for less than an hour and I've already broken like 5 of them. Be very careful when taking them apart one by one, because as I said, they break very easily. They are also very small. I expected them to be small, but I was actually very surprised when I got them and saw the actual size of the magnets.

Other Thoughts:

If you need magnets or just want some for fun, buy bigger ones. Sure, there's 20 of them for just a few dollars, but they're very small and fragile as I said.

Bottomline:

Great power, really strong, but small and fragile. Over and out.

Pros:

The built Quality of the rare earthe magnets is very good. They are covered with tin (I think) which protects them against corrosion. At least a bit. One can't buy magnets like this in Germany for a comparable price. Of course they do break easily, as this is typical for the material. The Strength ist really amazing. A little cast iron pan will be hold by only one magnet.

Cons:

Only real contra is the delivery time. I ordered at October 6th and received them by yesterday. So overall it took them more than 5 weeks!!

Bottomline:

Will order some bigger ones, am impressed by their power :-)

Pros:

Pros:
Really strong magnets
Never left my fridge since I got them
Fun to play with them
Useful at home
Holds metal things in place

Cons:

Cons:
They are smaller than they look in pictures
Not much else. They are not magical, just mags

Other Thoughts:

Buy it. They are worth the money
Need magnets? Whether for function or fun, these are a win win!

Bottomline:

What else can I say, the Super-Strong Rare-Earth RE Magnets (8mm 20-Pack) are 100% worth the little money you pay for these awesome mags.

Pros:

Pros:
Really strong magnets
Never left my fridge since I got them
Fun to play with them
Useful at home
Holds metal things in place

Cons:

Cons:
They are smaller than they look in pictures

Other Thoughts:

Buy it. They are worth the money. I think The Breathalyzer with Parking Timer and Flashlight could be upgraded to be truly useful, perhaps with a screen and numbers, instead of lights.

Bottomline:

What else can I say, they are 100% worth the little money you pay for these awesome mags

Pros:

It really is very strong, you can do some amazing things with some of these.
Twenty is a quite good amount :)

Cons:

Their field is too strong for their resistance. Very often they break with the strenght of attraction, be careful. Let 2 stacks of 10 magnets get together 30 times and you'll certanly break at least one of them.
Maybe thicker ones are better.

Other Thoughts:

Since they still very useful even after breaking, that wasn't a problem to me. But if this may get in your way, i'd suggest buying thicker magnets.

Bottomline:

I'll buy some more of them later
