Review on ๐Ÿงญ 5-Piece Liquid Filled Zipper Pull Compass Set for Paracord Projects and Bug-Out Bags (2nd Generation) - Type-III by Neil Biondo

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good for the price, 2 of me had a little problem.

These are small and cheap compasses so don't expect them to be accurate. However, they all worked well enough to give you a general idea of direction, and work very well for my intended purpose: hanging them on the zipper of a child's coat to help them with outdoor activities like hiking, direction to learn. I would give them 4 stars for value for money but I got a pair with a stubborn movement. On these two the arrow does not swing freely. However, they work quite well if you tap them or give them a little shake to release the needle. Just press/shake until the arrow stops moving and points north. At first I thought it was them, but the other 3 work fine so it's either a shipping or quality control issue. Small lanyard loops are good for attaching to things like the zip or backpack etc. Good value for money and great little compasses for the kids to learn with but I doubt they are accurate enough. To be your primary navigational compass.

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
