Has anyone tried BB's? BB's weigh a fraction of a 1/4 ounce (the small size of metal weight for balancing tires) and fit inside my tire's valve stem.....

It was smoother with no magnet and no balancer... Look at the bolt head directly below the tire at :33. Now skip to 3:17 and look at how much it's moving.
I started using these for the bigger tires on my Jeep. Trust me when I say the difference between using these and not using these is like NIGHT and DAY! The bigger the tire the more you need these!
The base of the fixture is vibrating like crazy indicating significant imbalance.
A balanced wheel/tire assembly won't cause vibration like tha, rather it will be perfectly smooth, like shown at the 30 second interval.
It's a vibration damper. They even say so when discussing the fluid; they call it "dampening fluid". It more accurately should be referred to as "damping" fluid.
Dynabeads go inside the tire, are made of ceramic material and work on any tire that holds air.

@paulyshore98 Dynabeads are snake oil. They cannot balance any tire. They may damp vibration.

@Blake1960 That's funny, they operate on the same principal as your hula-hoop with marbles. I took my bike up to 170 mph with zero vibration.

@Blake1960, Do you use them?

@DrJohnBecker Well it does seem like it's spinning a lot slower at 00:33 than it is at 3:17

Not accurate to call that a balancer. It is a vibration damper.
Review the demonstration at approximately 30 seconds into the video where the host comments that the assembly "is a little bit out of balance."
Yet note that very little, almost an imperceptible amount of vibration is evident including in the base of the fixture.
Now review at 1:55 when the host is imploring you to "notice how smoothly it is turning."
