eBay magnetic sump plugs

[mcandmar]

Really wasn't expecting them to do anything useful, kind of wish they didn't. Ignorance is bliss and all that...

Before somebody asks, it was this one --> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/361400470412

Just get a neodymium magnet and put it on the inside of the stock drain plug, much, much cheaper.

Motorbikes always have magnetic plugs, image what it looks like when the gearbox runs in the same oil. Scary

Ever had an original Mini? Crunch gears too much and you can find syncro teeth on the plug.

Whether one uses the magnetic sump plug or the filter magnet, I presume we are all agreed that either one or the other of them is a good idea for people to get and use ?

Wanted to poll memebers as I think ether one would be good for the engine or gearbox, as well as indicating to the owner what's 'happening' inside the engine or gearbox ?

Any links to the filter magnet ?

Thanks.
