Magnet

Hi

I was just wondering if anyone has used a Bicycle helmet with a magnetic clip for under the chin? I just bought one and once I opened it I notice it is held together by a magnetic clip. Could this interrupt my pacemaker? The magnet does not seem like it is that big. But I really don't know what strength would alter my pacemaker. Any ideas?

shouldn't be a problem

It's probably too small to make a difference. If it is strong enough, it still has to be less than 6" from the device to have an effect. Try it and see how you feel. It won't hurt you, very worst case is it puts you in test mode until you move it away.

Ok
