- Neodymium magnets are recommended. If using small magnets, 2-3 may be required, but too many can also be detrimental.
- Actively watch the hall number change (in [debug menu](/Documentation/DebugMenu.md)) while you slowly move the magnet around to seek the best locations & whether you have too many or too few magnets. Positioning the magnet where you have the highest hall number will ensure consistent sleep mode when you place the iron in the stand. This requires some experimenting.
