TurnOnSport Orienteering Compass - Advanced Scout Compass for Hiking, Camping, and Backpacking - Best Survival Gifts for Kids

i got these to teach my nephews map and compass. the first thing we did was to place the compass on a compass prover i made some months back. i was really surprised to see that one of them is .5 of a degree out, the other was on the money. my opinion, this is a great value for beginner or someone not looking to spend a ton of money on something that will be used for back packing but wants a quality, trustworthy instrument. i would trust it with land nav in a heart beat.

Works great bought 3

Great little compass tool. Dial is harder to spin and align than expected but very nice and a great price

Very nice, and lightweight. When I got it, I lightly tapped it so it found North. Now, no worries. Like the color, easy to find.

Easy to read compass with ruler and small magnifier. I put this in every shoe box ministry box that I send.

Very accurate. I bought this primarily to know which direction to turn the head of my bed, as crazy as that sounds 🙂 it was true north. Looking it up there's sayings of that's the worst position to sleep. Google it.

Seems to match my other and the phones compass.

I was a bit disappointed by the size of the numbers and readability. I can barely read the temperature from inside the house (about 8 feet away). But the quality and accuracy seem good.

In my youth, I used a compass in the forest, but this time I needed one just to adjust my TV antenna in line with the TV transmission towers. Simply used a map for towers locator to get the coordinates, which I got from tvfool.com. This compass is perfect and not expensive. It is reliable.

I wanted a simple compass for travelling overseas and could not go past this one. It is clear, easy to read and strong enough to handle the knocks that are inevitable during travel. It is sturdy and very well made. I recommend this item highly.

We bought this very basic compass because our child watched Stranger Things and immediately decided that navigating the unknown (or at least the backyard) now required one. This compass does exactly what a compass is supposed to do: it points north. Reliably. Consistently. Our child tested it extensively by standing very still, squinting intensely, and announcing directions like they were on a secret mission. Overall it helped our child feel 87% more adventurous and 100% more serious. Sturdy, simple, and perfect for young explorers who believe orientation is a survival skill (which, in some cases, it definitely is). Would recommend — especially if your household is currently experiencing a Stranger Things phase.

Es un artículo que si bien no lo usas al tener gps u artefactos electrónicos es útil si no los tienes aunado a qué es útil en situación de supervivencia

I bought this for my son for his first compass but honestly the quality is amazing for $9.98 I have nothing but good things to say. I would use this myself.
