According to several sights I looked neodymium magnets should not loose much strength.

Q: Will neodymium magnets lose strength over time?
A: Hardly not. Neodymium magnets are the strongest and most permanent magnets . If they are not overheated or physically damaged, neodymium magnets will lose less than 1% of their strength over 10 years - not enough for you to notice unless you have very sensitive measuring equipment. They won't even lose their strength if they are held in repelling or attracting positions with other magnets over long periods of time.
