Can a member recommend the best adhesive for attaching the magnet to the Jobo CPE2 plastic drive wheel. I have tried a variety with no success. Holds for a short time and then gives way. Thanks for any suggestions.

Lightly scrub the gear with some strong solvent like acetone, then let it evaporate. If the solvent etches or hazes the plastic, it's gluable; if it doesn't, its probably some kind of poly-plastic which won't accept glue, which would make perfect sense for this application anyway. After all, there's a reason all these glues are sold in polyethylene tubes to begin with. They don't interact!
