I don't know about you, but I love the Tengyun V1...it desperately needed an increase in magnet strength though. With this, I decided to look into it. Putting magnets in the center caps would not work very well because of the shape of the pieces. Replacing stock magnets isn't very feasible either. Then I went down the path of trying the same method that folks are using to increase the magnet strength of the RS3M 2020. Unfortunately, the caps on the Tengyun's edge pieces are pretty tight and it felt like I was going to break them, so I did not go forward with that.
Here's what I did:
I removed the caps from the corner pieces and placed stronger magnets on top of the three existing magnets. This is a bit weird as there is a plastic "stalk" in the way, so the magnets may sit at a slight angle, but it still works. I have 100 solves in it now without them moving, so I'm confident they will stay put. This method worked well, there is a noticeable increase in strength. That being said, I recommend using higher strength magnets as the impact wasn't quite drastic enough for me...it worked though! Maybe I'll look at stronger magnets in the future.
