Are they silver plated?
Looks like they closed the sign-up! Hopefully at that price somebody got a few extra they'd be willing to sell

I bought some from Canada, 9/16 X 3/8 X 1/16 N42. I'll let you know how it goes. The throw off the switch is long enough that the magnets won't touch so plating shouldn't make any kind of difference...oh yeah, 10pcs for about $15 shipped...

I just found the magnets available on Vaperev. I guess they just got them and I am sure that they will not last long. I should have an extra set when mine come in the mail, but you are only allowed to order 4 sets of them. Cheers and good luck.
Check out vaperev.com. They have it. I just added one to my cart. I'm not affiliated with them at all FYI
Thanks to the above peeps.....
I bought some from Vaprerev, but for the life of me I cannot see what their being silver plated has to do with anything... Somebody please enlighten me...

With a grain of salt, folks.... knowledge is power and an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure..
Ok, so for those that haven't heard about this yet.... evidently in using the magnets the nemesis switch, the silver battery pin can and may work it's way out (I heard it called switch post walk) and I have one report already of a switch failure (battery Vented). I read on Fat Daddy's website that when upgrading the sigelei 19 to use magnets, he recommended using some blue locktite to hold the 19's pin in place.
I am keeping an eye on mine and don't think that a little blue locktite or clear nail polish to lock the switch pin into the base is all that bad of an idea for a little piece of mind.
I did upgrade my switch today with the magnets from vaperev and worked the pin in all the way tight when I upgraded it. After hearing about the "switch pin walking" I took it apart and sure enough it was loosened.... a full turn
Not trying to cause a panic, but rather create an awareness....

You did put the anti rotation pin back in, right? I don't see how it could back out if that's in place...

Absolutely... the bottom of the switch would freely spin without it... Since I posted this, I've heard of others saying that this happens with the springs too... its not the entire switch assembly that is walking, it is the silver coated battery pin.
Iv had my magnet upgrade in for about two weeks now and no loosening of the contact has happened to me I always make sure it is tight when installing and when switching batteries I take a few turns off switch before unscrewing mod
Anyone know when these will be available again? I missed them
I bought mine from vape rev just a few days ago.

So, I got one set from VapeRev about 2 weeks ago and a few days ago found that the magnets weren't strong enough to keep the switch from firing while standing upright without engaging the lock. A minute ago I took the switch apart to inspect and found that one of the magnets broke in half! It still works just a bit half-a$$ed.
Perfect timing too considering I just saw that VapeRev sold out and the facebook group buy is closed.
If anybody's found the right dimensions from a magnet website or something please post it. I'm definitely going to buy extra.

I'm pretty sure the VapeRev ones are direct from him too. Ugh... I'd prefer not to pay a ....-load in shipping from Greece & even worse the wait time!
