Can anyone testify to their strength? Bonnierose, Danita, Meredith?? _________________________ If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane ~ Jimmy Buffett

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	I just got some of these for Christmas. The first time I wore them without reading the instructions. And they kept coming undone. That's what prompted this thread. Then I read what I should've read to begin with, and discovered the safety lock needed to be released. I wore them after releasing the safety lock and they held okay. Ladyjane, perhaps you should give them a test run before wearing anything of great value? I don't know. But some of my jewelry have such little clasps, it takes a half hour to put them on. That's why I went this route. It's quick and easy. _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

meredithbead The Divine Ms M Registered: 07/07/03 Posts: 4894 Loc: Orange County, California	LadyJane, I'm not familiar with this specific product, but what I know of magnetic clasps in general -- some are stronger than others, and sometimes they lose a little of the magnetic properties over time. The ones Bonnierose bought look good, but it's hard for me to judge from here (need to have them in my hands.) Basically -- the smaller the magnetic surface, the weaker the clasp is. So don't buy any tiny clasps unless it's for very lightweight jewelry. _________________________ My handcrafted jewelry: limited edition designs more jewelry, plus bead supplies Poet and essayist
