Pros & Cons
Pros
Talk about durability, this one is built like a tank. It is worth every penny. Overall, good product and decent value.
The commenga/tritium lit compass is miles ahead of any competing brand with phosphorescent backlighting. Good lensatic compass.
The included pouch is a nice touch, protecting the compass when it's not in use. Having the option to attach it to my backpack is super convenient. I wish the pouch material were a tad more durable.
Cons
Stay away from this seller. Really disappointed in the dishonesty of this. This is the worst attempt at a bait and switch i have experienced.
There was no nrc paperwork in the package indicating radioactive materials were contained within. No bueno. Totally returning the pos.
Sold as tritium version, but was shipped the phosphor version. No nsn number. Average life on the tritium is 12yrs. These are older than 12yrs!

The compass has a1k meter ruler on one side which is scaled for 150000 mgrs maps making it pretty useless for usgs 7
Again good for most all orienteering uses but wasnt exactly what i needed

I will most definitely update this if the tritium is smoke and mirrors

When i first received the order it appears i mistakenly received a phosphorus luminescent version of the compass the type youd have to charge with some light before use during limited visibility
