Would a rare earth magnet stick to a round lithium battery by itself?
I am thinking of making a small LED ornament that would light up when I place a magnet to ‘press down’ one of its legs to a battery. When I don’t need the ornament to light up, I simply remove the magnet. Both battery and magnet would be round and flat, like a coin.
This idea would only work if the magnet would attract the battery by itself. I want to ask around before I go ahead and buy the materials.
