Magnets and probes

[ToLearn]

Will Magnets mess with any of the probes.(ph, temp, ORP, conductivity...)

A lot of the probe holders use magnets and I think they may not be the way to go.

I used them and have not seen any effect on the probe reading so I think you will be fine.

I use an Eshopps probe holder, which has very strong magnets, to hold my pH, temp, and ORP probes. I have not experienced any issues.

I use the ZooMed Mag Clips on my temp, pH, and ORP. No problems with them at all.

No one is going to ask what a "Megent" is. Obviously typo.

Thanks all. Sometimes I look too far into things. Saw one post about someone curious of them causing issues with ORP and it made me decide not to use them. Still considering though I've already ordered a bunch of the hang ons and the same type they use to mount pH probes in reactors.

Well... your title actually said "megnet", not "megent"... so that is probably why no one asked.

Regardless, I've used both megnets AND megents next to my probes, and they didn't cause issues either.

I have taken magnets paced them on probes to see if they would interfere. In my tests there was no noticable effect.
