The super magnet embedded in the Apex Pick Badger LT is strong enough to hold multiple ferrous items at once (nails, bottle caps, small iron fragments) during a single dig, though the exact capacity depends on the size and weight of the trash. The magnet's primary function is sorting ferrous trash from non-ferrous targets as you dig, not serving as a long-term storage point, so you'll still need a separate trash pouch or pile to discard the collected items. Most prospectors clear the magnet periodically as they work through a target-rich area to maintain optimal magnetic attraction.
