the base has an electro magnet. I don't know the size. The globe will also have a magnet that is repelled. I don't believe it can be removed.

We have never looked into doing this and never had any desire to do so. Our question is why would you want to remove the magnet?

You can take it out, both hemispheres on (or off) to form the globe :) . Don't know the size of the magnet, fits in your palm, it should be about the diameter of the globe itself.

I can only assume that it is magnet size. I have the red one and is perfect for my homeowner purposes. I use it all the time!

Yes, If it is pulled away from the magnet the (very loud) alarm will sound.

The magnet is fairly strong. I wouldn't chance it. I might carry it separately if possible

It is magnetic, just lifts off the case. I recently did this and used it with my iPad.

1. Yes you can. I did.2. I made them take it out IMMEDIATELY. Almost hit something that looked like it was 15 away. Your mileage may vary.

No because measuring part holds the magnet away from surface. - no contact of magnet

It's an electro magnet, power is applied to activate the magnet and must be removed to deactivate.

This magnet is way to powerful for that purpose. I doubt you could get it off the refrigerator if you placed it on there. It provides over 400 Lbs. of pull. You need a much cheaper magnet.

While I have not had anything happen - the magnet it really strong and you should not keep it close to any electronics.

You have to detach it and put it in the slot. The magnet is not a fixed one; it's more like a hinge.

Slide it on and off the magnet and you will be fine. If you try to pull it straight away it's much harder than just sliding it up or down.

You can't pop the magnets out since the frame itself is the magnet. But there are screw holes in the frame if you wish to screw it onto the chassis.

Yes it can easily be removed. The opening is then about 5/8 x 5-1/2 inches. No sharp edges so you can use it that way if you have a case as I do with my iPad.

The magnets are not strong enough, I should have returned the item. .....8 inches

No, your phone has a metal plate, not the magnet. The magnetic part is on the large piece that attatchs to your CD player. In any sense I think it takes a large magnet to mess with your stuff.

NO the hole that you need to make is just barely big enough to get the magnet through!!! 3.5 inches any bigger than that you have nothing left for the screws to grab hold!!!! Literally the hole is the outside of the black ring 3.5 any bigger than that your screwed!!!!!
