Re: [flasah] My phone case [magnet question]

 

I just ordered D501, D51, D51-N52, D701, D701-N52, D71, D71-N52, D801, D801-N52, D81, D81-N52, and D803.
 
I'll let you know how they work. These are about the size used in the Blackberry case I opened.

I don't know the proper strength of the magnet but it doesn't take much.
As for the location - that depends on you case design.
As Clark said "It should be placed just above the space bar. and can be a small farrite magnet."

For blackberry cases ... could you post a diagram showing the proper location and strength of the magnet?

For the blackberry you need a small magnet built into the case.  This lets the Blackberry know to go into 'case mode'.
It turns the back lighting off  etc. You have to put it in the right spot or it won't work.

Great site, Art; which one do you find best? Do you use two for closure or one on flap and metal strip on body of case?

I work on the mobile computer side of Motorola. We have products that do similar things with a magnet. I've taken one of those magnets and am looking for a readily available source of the same strength. As soon as I find it I'll let you know. I should have something by this weekend at the latest.

Clark,
 
Love your phone case bro!
 
I have been wanting to make a few for folks but I was worried about using off the shelf magnets from the hobby shop or the magnetic clasp that Tandy sales....
 
Is there any chance of a small 'hobby' or clasp magnet being too strong??  Will it damage anything in the Blackberry? ???

This is the case I made for myself. I work for Motorola hense the reason for the batwings.
 
btw, I spoke with my engineering group about the magnet in the blackberry case. It should be placed just above the spacebar. and can be a small farrite magnet. I shaved a small piece off the magnet from the money clip kit. It is flexible and works great.
