SparkFun COM-08643 Magnet Square – 0.25″
These are small rare earth magnets – 0.25″ cubed. Composed of Neodymium/Iron/Boron (NdFeB), these magnets are curiously strong and make for a great way to attach tools to a metal workbench, hold small children to a fridge, and as a trigger for reed switches.
Activates the reed switch (shown below) at a distance of about 3cm.
Sold in single units.
Neil Green –
This magnet really is tiny, but very sticky for its size. Probably handy for all sorts of practical things, but mostly good for mucking about with.
