JUMP over the main compass!

This is an excellent compass with additional features (mirror with line of sight for improved navigation accuracy, lanyard). I will be using this to teach my grandson the basics of orienteering. And when he masters it, I'll buy him another one as a gift! Great product!

Pros
  • NIGHT-LIGHT markings, magnifying glass, scales for measuring the map in MM or INCHES
Cons
  • write later

Southbound, suitable for compasses

We wanted a mirrored compass for the mirrorless version so my wife and I could have a hiking compass. The compass arrived on time and as advertised EXCEPT it points SOUTH. A very big problem. The person could get lost. Obviously the needle was mispainted, I'm very glad I noticed this as it could have been very confusing at the track. I think check your compass points north when you buy it, I wonder how many were made this way. Hopefully the replacement points north!

Pros
  • ROUTE MAP Calculate the avalanche danger, determine how difficult your trip will be. This compass can also display a scale of 1:40,000, has both an inclinometer to measure the angle of inclination and a 45 degree mirror aiming function.
Cons
  • Big and chunky

Silva sacrifices quality for profit.

I cannot confirm the accuracy of the compass, I have never used it for navigation and sent it back immediately. This compass does not have luminous markings as advertised. A very faint glow-in-the-dark color is applied, but far from luminous. The target hole is awfully small. The cardinal points are marked yellow in yellow, depending on the situation a bit difficult to read. The mirror was blurry, almost gray instead of a bright mirrored surface. Overall very bad quality. The packaging says…

Pros
  • WEIGHT LACE, 2 scales, soft and flexible, easy to place directly on the route on the map.
Cons
  • The list will be long.
