I put some on my bike and wanted to see if anyone else likes to sit at lights. I mounted mine on the bottom of my fairings and I found that they work great.

Was there a site you can get them, or are they just generic magnets? I have been stuck at a lot of lights before until either a car gets behind me or I blow the light after a while

I've never tried them, but everything I've read says they're B.S. I also spoke toa cityengineer who services traffic loop sensors and he tooconfirmed that they don't do a thing. But if they work for everyone here, maybe I'll have to give them a try.

Alot of it depends on the city you live in, if your city or town has the magnetic loops they will work for you. I got mine on Ebay. Just do a search for neodynium magnets. They are pretty inexpensive, so if you want to spend 5 bucks and try it out, its not a big loss financially.
