Message: [QUOTE="holeshot, post: 571795, member: 17202"] I also use the Watchdog. The magnet supplied with the 'dog is nickel plated and is slightly larger than the small rare earth magnets that you can pick up from Radio Shack. The recommendation is to drill a hole in a rotor spoke about half the depth of the magnet. If the magnet is in too deep, the magnetic field will be weakened. I'm using the cheapo Radio shack magnet in the 3/16" hole with no problems. The first Watchdogs came with a pickup that degraded (badly) over time. I purchased a new version of the pickup ($35) with the coarse brass thread, and it works perfectly. [/QUOTE]
