[Histonet] Magnet for old VIP's

[Gayle Callis]

Linda,

You do not need the little pricey gray magnet - just use a magnetic teflon 
coated stirring bar of the same size.  When we bought our VIP K series in 
1984, Miles aka Sakura told us to substitute with the stirring 
bar.  Curiousity made me try it and it worked nicely.   There are some 
stirring bars that do not have ridges for closer contact, but the others 
work too.

Have fun
