Review on ๐ŸŒ Enhanced 2nd Gen Liquid-Filled Slip-on Compass Set for Watchbands or Paracord Bracelets - Type-III 4pc by Christopher Todd

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Unreliable Good for sports and outdoor accessories

I've been using these compasses for over 1 month. I compared these compasses with my GPS compass, my Brunton Brunton Classic compass (9020G) and two Suunto SUUNTO M-9 mechanical compass compass watches. Mounted compasses are for general guidance only and not for precise positioning. If they work reliably I would hope to replace my Suunto Clipper if the Suunto Clipper L Micro Compass (luminous bezel) fails as they are now >$20 each when I bought them for $6 10 years ago bought dollars. on a watch strapCheapReliabilityTendency to misalign All my current compasses point 100% the same course when used in the same conditions except this one, sometimes it's right, sometimes it's pointing somewhere but not wrong. I'm not sure what's causing this as clicking on the compass still doesn't show the correct direction. Even if caused by stray magnetic fields, it is too sensitive to external interference to be reliable. Neither Clipper, Brunton nor M9 are affected by this compass. I gave it 2 stars because it's too cheap to return. I give it the benefit of the doubt maybe my batch is bad and another buyer will do better and the mount is better than the Suunto Clipper mount so I will remove that compass and use the Suunto mount again so I am end up using some of it.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Quality
