Really interesting. RS somehow employs the electro-magnetic mechanism currently used commercially in glass doors like in office buildings....you swipe your passcard and the door magnetic contact demagnetizes to unlock the door and after a few seconds reactivate to 'lock' it. So RS has scaled this mechanism down for EBB application. And yes, it makes sense to have a steel or aluminum receiver to withstand the constant pounding it will get with EBB. Props to RS if they can pull this off.
