Overview

Clipping onto a strap or a piece of gear, this super-compact compass shows cardinal directions in luminous prints. The listing calls it waterproof and usable for underwater navigation.

The reason to buy is the very small, light form that clips on and stays out of the way. The limitation is the hemisphere setting, which limits use south of the equator.

Who it's for

Hikers and divers who want a light backup compass in the north will use the clip mount. Southern Hemisphere users, or anyone needing sighting features, should pick another style.

Pros and cons

Cons
  • Northern Hemisphere only
  • No sighting aids listed
  • Very small dial

Performance notes

A magnetized card aligns with the earth's field and the luminous print makes it readable in the dark. A compass balanced for one hemisphere tilts incorrectly in the other, which is why the setting matters. A small dial gives a rough heading only.
