So, I don't quite remember where I saw the idea but to who ever I owe props to... it's yours.

But I thought this was cute Diode neo magnet

I still don't understand why they use a ferrous back plate, seems like a heat bottleneck, a copper alloy could be made strong.

I do wonder if the gold coating is a big part of the heat vehicle, they bond to the blocks with indium foil that is a good carrier of heat and has a low melting point of 157 C, but still I would expect the back plate to be non ferrous and something like copper or copper alloy.

Little ways to keep our beloved diodes I guess. Not that I'm dying for more dead diodes :shhh:

Yup, lets just hope you don't end up with a fridge door full of diode tacked posted notes
Really cool idea that's for sure

I've been tossing out bad diodes for years now. Never thought about collecting them. Didn't know until today that the diodes were iron containing. Magnets for your dead soldiers. :crackup:

I'm going to start sticking my dead FlatTop UltraFire 18650s on the fridge.
They already have magnets.
