I'm thinking about an idea for a future saber where a crystal chamber is covered by an overlay piece that is held on using small rare earth magnets. That way there'd be no need for a complicated mechanism or door to reveal the chamber, you'd just pop the panel off with a coin or a flat custom kill key or something.
For obvious reasons, the idea of magnets near my electronics makes me a bit nervous. Do you guys think 4 or so tiny magnets would cause damage to saber electronics?
Speakers are magnets and we use those all the time. How far away from the board will they be?
I have magnets less than an inch away from the soundboard with no issues at all
Modern electronics are pretty resilient to magnetic forces these days.

"There's nothing magnetic in flash memory, so [a magnet] won't do anything," says Bill Frank, executive director of the CompactFlash Association. "A magnet powerful enough to disturb the electrons in flash would be powerful enough to suck the iron out of your blood cells," says Frank.
I haven't decided. I don't have a concrete design in mind. I'm just in the imagining possibilities stage.Quote:

Works great.
That's pretty amazing, right there...Quote:
