Chibitronics Reed switch - magnet on

Reed Switches (Magnet On) serve as dynamic components in electronic projects, offering a versatile method to control circuits using magnetic fields. These components make circuits interactive by only allowing current to flow when a magnet is in proximity.The package includes 6 compact switches, each measuring 5/8 inches by 1/8 inches. These switches seamlessly integrate with paper circuits, triggering captivating effects like light or sound when activated by a magnet.Compatible with a range of power sources, they work with Chibitronics Launchpad Batteries, 3V coin cells, and 5V USB power. Connect using Conductive Fabric Tape or Copper Tape for reliable conductivity. Enhance your learning and creativity by incorporating these switches into projects for a hands-on experience with electronic circuits.
