Yes. ZenMagnets has always put warnings on their products, and there are no confirmed incidents of ingestion involving their magnets. To me, this constitutes empirical evidence that warning labels can work.
ZenMagnets also petitioned the CPSC to establish labeling requirements that all small magnet vendors would have to comply with. Instead of going along with this eminently reasonable suggestion, they continued to try to get the product off the market.
Full disclosure: happy ZenMagnets customer.
- justin66 8y ago> ZenMagnets has always put warnings on their products I'll have to dig up my old set of magnets but I don't believe their early warnings would clue you in to exactly how dangerous the magnets are when ingested. The newer warnings are considerably more effective, I suspect, if what is on the website ("MAY CAUSE FATAL INTESTINAL PINCHING") is representative of what's on the package. edit: I hope this stupid warning is not a real thing today: https://images1.westword.com/imager/one-of-the-warning-labels-that-comes-with/u/original/6527906/feature_warning.jpg https://images1.westword.com/imager/one-of-the-warning-label...
