Put whatever you want magnetized inside that coil of copper turn the jump box on and off a couple times and Presto you have a super magnetic screwdriver that will stay magnetic for months.

Is that basically a short circuit?!
You should put up the first sticker:

I like the sticker! Yes it shorts through the coil and the black magic occurs. Whatever is placed inside that coil so long as it’s Steel will be magnetized. You can build one out of old PC parts in this case I just used the jump trickle charger because I had a few extras I bought at a garage sale and they have built-in self-healing fuses so each time it pops you just powered off and back on to reset it

oh yeah, the “Not To Be Operated By Fuckwits” sticker would be good here too.
I was thinking shorting out the output can’t be good for the charger. And the newer chargers with
automatic short protection wouldn’t work.

Usually I’m trying to de-magnetize stuff. Nothing (well, a few things) worse than every tool being covered in steel
‘fur’ from grinding dust, etc.

The the charger was $4 at a yard sale been using it like this for about 6 years with no issues already have a backup for when it does blow but don't think it will.

A little different from demagnetizing tools, but the thing I miss most about CRT monitors is the degauss button...

These are clever. Too bad they’re the whole pack though, I don’t really want the first or 4th but I’d put #
2 and 3 on stuff (but not for $12)

I haven’t ordered them. I should. I’d be fine with paying AvE $12 for the engineering knowledge he imparts on me.
Have you seen his videos? Even better if his humor coincides with yours.

I think I’ve seen a couple of his videos here and there (didn’t immediately recognize the name but I recognize the voice/style). The videos are pretty entertaining
