don't waste your money, it's just a 25¢ magnet. take an old harddrive and bust the magnet out of it (which is stronger anyway) ... either way it's hit and miss (works sometimes but not all the time .. even on loop detectors) but at least the harddrive one is stronger and free if you have an old one.

yeah that's what I figured... I thought for 20 bucks it'd be a pretty strong magnet but that was just a guess

I've heard that sometimes you can get away with shutting your bike off and starting it back up. The starter creates a magnetic field which can be sensed by the sensor...

I've heard most of those things don't really work, but I've never tried it.

In Wisconsin... they just changed, or are about to change the law so that after sitting at a light for x amount of time (say 30 seconds), you can proceed with caution... or some bs like that...
