Tesla meter
The Tesla meter reads magnetic field strength. Here the highest reading on the edge of a large NIB magnet is 0.746 Tesla.

Measuring magnetic field strength by direct force measurements
Here is my attempt at measuring magnetic field strength. To measure the field generated by the electromagnet above I made a coil that could be placed in the magnetic field.

Magnetic field meter (Gaussmeter)
This is a magnetic field meter or Gaussmeter which uses a UGN3503 Hall effect device to drive a meter. It shows the magnetic field sensor reading the strength (in Tesla’s) of a small horseshoe magnet. The meter is not yet calibrated so the reading is not correct.
