"This really is a button compass and really compact. It orients well although sometimes needs to ensure it's completely flat; but perfect for a quick check which direction is north. You'd obviously use this sparingly and maybe just to give you an idea of direction before finding a waypoint and heading for it, but it weighs next to nothing so definitely something to keep on you when out and about. Just put it somewhere safe as it's very small!"
