MotorDoc Vlog 63 Flux Probe Magic Wands Part 1

Note that this is not a discussion of air gap flux probes used to evaluate rotors for defects where the probes are located in the magnetic field. This is related to the ‘magic wands’ that have been making claims again recently. I’ll discuss some of our experiences and a few basic experiments to get the juices flowing and everyone up in arms before Part 2 which will be… interesting. In this we debunk claims about accuracy, speed detection versus ESA/MCSA and energy consumption. You know – real science vs marketing science.
