I found this on the floor and I'm concerned it might have fell off something I need.
Anyone know what it is?
It has a tiny coil inside wrapped around a black cylinder.
The glass is perfectly round and shiny on the ends and I can't see any external solder connections or bare wires anywhere when looking with a magnifying glass.
It looks like the coil is fully enclosed in glass.
Things it could possibly be from are :
I'm working on my motorbike, but it's a 1985 motocrosser so no computers or high tech electronics.
My soldering iron has overheated once.
One of my multimeter probes came away from its cable.
Could be from a 1989 pocket TV.
A Chines digital speedo for the bike (I took it apart and looked at the circuit board and it doesn't look like it is missing from there).
