Coghlan's Compass – Carabiner, Liquid-Filled Navigation Tool for Hiking, Camping, Survival & Orienteering

small and super cute - perfect to hang off a bag so i don’t get lost bushwalking (or figuring out which way to go when emerging from a subway)

This small compass is a great tool to carry as a keychain, and it accurately points to magnetic north. However, it only works well when left to settle—if you hold it while walking, it doesn't provide reliable readings. Overall, a handy and functional piece for those who need a portable direction guide.

Smaller than I thought. Still, does its job. Conveniently clips to backpack, belt or most anything. Well-made, affordable and stylish.

The one I got works well provided it isn't near iron or steel, or magnets of course. It's on the small side, but easy to read and seems pretty reliable. The glowing dial directions and integrated carabiner are a practical and nice touch. It's good for a quick reference for orientation, but not ideal for accurate land navigation. Having a nicer compass and this both are a good option to cover the basics. Thanks.

This compass was quite a disappointment. It has a short life. I purchased it in January. It's July, and it is junk. I wish I could return it. There is no value for the money. Purchase something else.

Nice little compass, great for hiking to hang on your belt loop. It is stylish and is quality made, easy to read and lightweight.

This is all you need. Accurate, no nonsense. I've tested it in several locations where I know the cardinal directions and it's always one up accurate. Good for general direction. As a side note, it must be oil filled because I wear it on my belt loop in a -20F freezer and it stopped spins/works accurately. I've also bumped against several solid steel beams and it hasn't cracked or anything. I really don't see any other reason to get another small compass. This does great for cardinal directions and is bulletproof. If you want something more accurate for land navigation, obviously get a full featured compass to put in your bag. This is just for basic navigation. But dang, it is good.

I have a number of compasses. They never leave the house. Most of the time I have no need for one and if push comes to shove, there is always the cell phone. However, this one is different. It clips onto something with ease and on those occasions where it helps me to figure out where I'm headed, it is very valuable. I was in a state part the other day with only a sketchy map. There were lots of trees, so you couldn't see very far. I was trying to find ruins. By keeping an eye on my direction they were easy to find. Do you need a compass for that? No. Was it useful to have one? Yes. This thing works well, seems accurate enough for those small tasks, is well built, and is simple, small, and light enough that you might as well take it with you. When I go for a walk, I now take this with me, just in case. I'm not exactly on rescue missions and never really in an area where I could get seriously lost, but heading back to the parking, or re-calibrating which way I was headed has its uses.

Nota 1000

Great quality and value for this small and handy size compass. It has a strong clasp that is a good size and will easily fit on any bag or rucksack etc. The clasp measures 4cm and the compass measures 3cm. It feels quite tough and is easy to use, it reads the direction perfectly. I definitely recommend it. Its handy enough to hang on my Book, as its important in what I do, to find the correct position for North, South, East and West.

Très pratique. Fonctionne très bien grâce au montage dans un liquide amortisseur pour un bonne précision. Sensible aux masses métalliques et aux aimants, comme toute bonne boussole. Compacte et facile à accrocher sur le sac.
