Hello, for a project I'm working on i need a magnet that is attached to a spinning wheel to trigger a magnetic reed switch that's about a cm away every time that the wheel makes a rotation.
I don't know which parts to buy because if the magnet is too weak or the switch too hard to trigger it won't work, and the magnet has to be very small to fit on the wheel. I don't understand the specs of various magnets and reed switches being sold online, so i would appreciate it if someone who has a decent understanding of the topic could tell me what kind of magnet and reed switch i would need.
Thanks!
