Design criteria:

• It had to be usable in the field or the lab.
• Therefore, it had to be compact and easy to store and transport,
• ……and that includes the magnetic stirrer bar…..
• And it would need to run on batteries,
• As it also had to double as a lab stirrer, it also required power for long term use.
• It had to stir volumes from 10 to 1000 ml.
• It had to be feasible to fabricate.
• It had to be resistant to spills and chemicals.
