Q. Is there a special device
to measure the power of a magnet?
A. Yes. The instrument used to measure the strength of a magnet is
called a gauss meter, or sometimes "magnetometer". Without
a magnetic field the instrument registers zero. When a negative field
is applied, the needle moves to the left. When a positive magnetic
field is measured, the needle moves to the right.
Q. What is the magnets gauss
rating?
A. Gauss is a way to measure the intensity or power of a magnet. AceMagnetics.com only use the most powerful high energy neodymium magnets
in our bracelets. (Typically 3300 gauss per magnet)
Q. What is the difference
between "unipole" and "BI - polar" magnets?
A. Uni - pole magnets are polarized with the negative fields on one
side of the magnet and the positive side on the other. BI - polar
magnets have both fields present on each side. Research has shown
that the positive magnetic field can be dangerous if the body is exposed
to it for prolonged periods of time. This is why Ace Magnetics uses
only uni - pole magnets.
