Alnico V magnets

[Gone]

Hi,

Quick question: Is there anything to watch out for when selecting alnico magnets for pickup building?

I've wound a couple of pickups using alnico v magnets from stewmac, but I've found a cheaper/local supplier for alnico magnets:

I will have to buy at least 100 but they will work out to about a 3rd of the price as stewmac variety. Before I make such an investment is there anything to watch out for?

I've never dealt with them, but I checked the site and it looks ok to me, if you can get the heights you want.

It appears that these are fully magnetized unlike the stew mac ones. So they might give higher gauss readings than a typical user charged one.
