A permanent magnetic element is suspended above the center of the housing having a first magnetic field strength and an indicator. A biasing permanent magnetic element is disposed at the first end of the housing and has a second magnetic field strength for biasing the indicator toward the first end. A first distance is between the permanent magnetic element and the biasing permanent magnetic element so that a threshold magnetic field strength can be determined from the first magnetic field strength, the second magnetic field strength and the first distance. Thus, when the object is placed approximate to the detection end and the object magnetic field strength is greater than the threshold magnetic field strength, the indicator rotates toward the detection end.1/2 100 10 FIG. 2 ~108 L0 I 1 0 102 El0 0 FIG. 2 1080 102 200 FIG.4122 06 300 120 110 43 310 324 -3l~b 108 314a 106 110100 02 F IG. 3
