But I thought this was cute :) Diode neo magnet

hi, Now thats a first Shotgun, good thinking. i a sure some of us can fill a refrigerator door full of these ..

Rich:)
 
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:

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:
