Pros

It's always a great idea to have a backup to the technological wonders at our fingertips nowadays. Bought a couple.

The compass is small, accurate, and stays out of the way while installed on the shoulder strap of my hiking pack. Not the easiest to read, but easy enough. Its on a safety pin with 360 degree turn option always pointing correctly when away from magnet...  Read More

Quality


Well made and so far pretty durable.


Navigates truly and though i’m not easy on my backpacking gear, it’s held up.

    The two pictures show that even if you reorient the compass it still points to the same direction


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Otherwise the only thing that could be improved is the pin


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It would be helpful if the pin could be removed so you can set the compass on a table using the silicon base that it has


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Tip the compass like other ones is affected by electrical systems


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If you try to use it near something that has electricity or battery like a smart phone tv etc


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    You can put it next to your smart phone and watch the north dial move
