Waiting till it arrives to see what clearance you're playing with. To my mind it isn't essential to go for Nd2Fe14B ones, which don't seem to be available in the same dimensions as those being sold in Greece - so I'd like to see what the OD is of the silver pin and go from there. Plus, I reckon a SmCo5 magnet would fair just as well...and possibly even a simple ferrous pair.

Yeah found they are 1mm thick but not what dia or hole size so agree prob best to wait, think 7e is a bit salty (£6) +p&p and @whit77 link is just about closed

Thing is that other dimensions will work fine, especially with Neodymium and Samarium Cobalt, as long as they clear the firing pin.

I'm guessing the ID of the battery tube is around 20mm seeing as the OD is 22mm so there's plenty of scope to play with the 17mmx10mm. Also, depending upon the depth of the switch cavity it may be possible to go up to 1.5 or 2mm in thickness.

But what if the force needed to press it is different, I want to keep mine as close to the real thing as possible

True, otherwise what would an owner of the original thing have to get worried about?

Apart form this...

Having said that, the Poldiac with clean contacts hits significantly harder--this is not an opinion, these are numbers. With a voltage drop of about .3, the Poldiac will perform beautifully with regular maintenance. It needs to be regularly cleaned. The Nemesis has a voltage drop of about .55 and is significantly less maintenance than the Poldiac.

And as we all know, the "clone" only managed a 0.2V drop.

...err, making it 0.35V better than the original.

Oh, and apart from this: £19.10

Funny as you see people saying clones don't perform as well as the original lmao

I just make the resistance to suit the mod anyway so will just hit as hard
