The only Wahoo sensor that doesn't use magnets is the cadence-only sensor.

If people need/want to buy a sensor, they should look closely at the ANT+/BT ones!
The plastic case for the Wahoo speed/cadence sensor is the same as the same as the Bontrager sensor. I suspect they are manufactured by one company. (I've had good luck with the Bontrager sensor.)
It's easier to have the units transmit both at the same time (fewer buttons/configuring issues for a sensor/transmitter that is supposed to be a simple to use as possible). The only downside is (possibly) shorter battery life.
