N'JennsGems (( Magnet Matcher ))

I am demonstrating how you match your magnets.
You will need your own multi-meter.
The banana plugs are a part of the (( Magnet Matcher )), so, you do not have to worry about breaking your probes to your multi-meter.

1. Flip your multi-meter to 20volts.
2. Plug Black lead into the multi-meter COM Port
3. Plug Red into the V(ohm)mA Port (please pause video to look)
4. Turn on your multi-meter.
5. Turn the dial on your (( Magnet Matcher )) and zero it out with the dial
until you have 0.00 ------> NOT - 0.00 <----
6. Once you have zero'd out your multi-meter, place your magnet in front of the probe to read your magnet strength.
Your front magnets will read negative numbers
(North magnet is pulling South voltage or negative voltage from your multi-meter - this is normal).
Test the edges. Each magnet can very in strength at the edges. (more on this soon).
7. Flip the magnet over to see if your numbers get better or worse, (just like step 6). Keep notes.
8. Testing South magnets should pull positive numbers on your multi-meter.
9. The weak edges vs stronger edges. When you put your magnets in the chassis, try to keep a weak edge
and a strong edge on one side of the car, and vice versa. If you put two strong, and two weak edges together,
your motor will likely run like crap. The PUSH PULL of the weak to strong edges and PUSH PULL from
strong to weak will even out the magnets eddy.
You will want the center of the magnets to be as close as possible since they are the center of your eddy flow
north vs south.
I hope this helps everyone understand why a magnet matcher is different than a downforce meter.
Matching magnets and the usage of a downforce meter (easily made with a cheap gram scale) will surely improve
your motors capacity.
As always your mileage may vary.
