Pros & Cons
Pros
Good back up compass for edc and any hiking bag. At $12 it's too expensive for a zipper pull, but i'm not disappointed in the compass itself.
The rotation of the outer ring makes this a true orientation compass. Having tried a few other mini compasses this on is impressive. Nice little compass for around neck or hang on jacket.
Construction is robust. Best part--designed and assembled in the usa. One last thing. Takes a * and keeps on working.
Cons
You need a magnifying glass to read this only to discover that it’s incorrect.
Highlights
Quality
I keep a tiny stuff sack in my pocket with the basics when hiking
Quality built complete with rotating direction dial clear see through base and distance rulers on both sides of the clear base
Price
Easy to use and very accurate for its size and cost
Shipping
Vender shipping was quick and item packaged well no complaints
Competitiveness
It is just as accurate as my fullsize suunto global baseplate compass
Effective as a key chain addition for edc on a length of paracord
I will primarily use it for general direction and not orienteering
Too small for orienteering though that’s not their intended purpose however they will keep you on course
