Default FilterMag: Alternative to Spoon Sports magnetic drain plugs?

Hey boys, do you guys have any experience with this? It sems like it works better than the Spoon Sports magnetic drain plugs would. It's basically the same concept but on a larger scale. What do you guys think?

Open up a tranny and look inside.

Those Honda engineers also thought this was a good idea and put a giant magnet in the tranny.

A bit pricey at $79. Anyone try making a homemade one?

I use both a filtermagnet (not the one pic'd above) and the spoon drain plug and there are still little bits and pieces that come out off the plug...

though not as much as my friends who use the drain plug only.....

Good product...whether custom or off the shelf....!

Anyone else have any experience with this? Is it a worthy investment?
