So I?ve done some testing on the Archurian Gate to confirm/examine the effect.
It does offer a ?reduced energy? way to ?turn on/off? a magnet.

The whole isotropic/soft ferrite thing can apparently be put to rest:  the effect is present no matter what magnet you to try activate.  I saw results with:

1: a tiny ceramic ?button? magnet
2: a small ceramic block with a hole in the middle
3: a larger ceramic block
4: a small neo button
5: a large neo block

A number of variables seem to affect the results ? with the components and the best results being:

A: the activated magnet
1: the larger the surface area of the magnet
B: the bolt/rod properties
   1: the larger the bolt head, and thus surface area (seems the most important variable)
   2: the thicker the bolt
   3: the shorter the bolt (within reason - you want to keep the main field far enough away)
C: the ?wand? properties used to touch the bolt
   1: the thicker the wand
   2: the short the wand
   3: a ?toothed? end to the wand
D: the size/strength/number of mags attached to the ?wand?

The most important/interesting effects I want to report are:

1.   the size of the bolt head seems the most important variable.  Archer stated on his site this was an important variable.
2.   having ?teeth? or notches at the end of the wand can increase the field transfer without a corresponding increase in effort to remove it.

I used a small crowbar as the wand.  Using just the corner tip ? it transferred a charge and was easy to remove the contact with the bolt.  Using the full pry-face edge ? with the bolt centered between the notch ? appeared to greatly increase the charge transfer without a relative increase in removal effort.

So ? using a large surface area magnet and bolt with a notched/toothed thin edged wand with the bolt/wand not being of excessive length will make a good switch on (most?) any magnet you want to activate depending on what you're attempting to design.

Just a couple pics to show some of the tested items?.

Hey Archer ? thanks for showing us this effect and welcome any details/clarifications you might offer.

@ all builders, I believe there has been some confusion about "switching" ferrite. You CANNOT switch the poles WITHOUT greater power that created them when they were cast. But you can " switch on" a greater strength than they already have via Archers demonstration. i.e. put a magnet on steel to line up it's monkeys and it is magnitized, ferrite is soft iron , soft ( cheap) ferrite is like a mettallica cheap drunk whore  , wave your north pole and she will line up. Wave your south pole...nothing happens that is unless you have a big swinging north pole and she will change teams. 

@ Que, Greta vids, help me out here, I believe the metal rod extension held it in place, not the intensified field effect on round line suppresion (WTF) ferrite mags.(as good as your vids were, i would have liked to seen the effect without the ferrites), I just feel like your comments about iso ferrite created alot of confusion about everything. I love Canada. They got great whorebags.  damn you!!  and FYI check out Robgallagher on youtube, he'll get those big ass neo's apart.

@capthook,

Great analysis and report.

Thanks, Larry

@CaptnHook
                        Archers "Discovery" is 300+ years old. Now ask yourself, why wasnt i taught this as a young child in any public school system in any first world country.
