Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi Guy's,
Since I designed my 4kw motor conversion to use 5/8x1/2" round neo's Mags4less have discontinued these magnets. While searching google I came across a chinese neo maker and got some good prices on D16mm xH13mm round neo's with a 3mm hole countersunk on both sides.
I found the 16mm (5/8 a tad smaller) is perfect for my newly machined rotor where I can fit 32 per pole for a total of 128 magnets on the rotor.
I've made this thread to see if anyone else is interested in these round magnets and if so the shipping will be cheaper as 1 big order can be done and I might be able to negotiate on the price.
