Product Information

Full details

The Easy Camp Map Compass Mirror is an essential navigation tool designed for hikers, backpackers, and outdoor enthusiasts who require high-precision orienteering in varied terrain. Its core benefit lies in the integrated mirror sighting system, which allows for extremely accurate bearing readings, supported by a clinometer for slope assessment and a built-in magnifier for map detail analysis. While it offers professional-grade features, it requires a steady hand and practice to master the mirror sighting technique effectively in windy or high-pressure environments.

FAQs

Can I use this compass at night?

Yes, the compass features a luminous needle that remains visible in low-light conditions.

Is the compass waterproof?

The compass is designed for outdoor use and is water-resistant, but it should not be submerged in water for long periods.

What is the purpose of the oil-filled housing?

The oil dampens the movement of the needle, allowing it to settle quickly and preventing it from shaking or spinning while you are in motion.

Does this compass require batteries?

No, this is a fully mechanical magnetic compass and does not require batteries.

What is the weight of the compass?

The compass weighs 74 grams, making it lightweight for backpacking and hiking.

How do I use the clinometer?

The clinometer measures vertical angles. Hold the compass on its side and allow the internal indicator to swing freely to read the angle on the scale.

Troubleshooting

The needle seems stuck or does not point north

Ensure you are not standing near large metal objects, power lines, or electronic devices that cause magnetic interference.

Difficulty seeing the degree dial clearly

Ensure the mirror is clean and positioned at the correct angle to reflect the dial fully; clean the mirror surface with a microfiber cloth.

Compass slides off the map

Ensure the silicone feet on the base are free of dust or debris, which can reduce their grip. Wipe them clean with a damp cloth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High accuracy due to mirror sighting
  • Compact folding design for easy storage
  • Includes a lanyard for secure carrying
  • Effective in low light with luminous markings

Cons

  • Requires learning curve to master mirror sighting
  • Mirror may require regular cleaning to stay clear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your compass remains accurate, avoid storing it near strong magnetic fields, such as speakers, smartphones, or power cables, as these can interfere with the magnetic needle. When using the device, keep it away from large metal objects that might cause deviation. To care for your compass, wipe the lens and mirror with a soft, microfiber cloth to prevent scratches. Always store it in its closed, folded position to protect the dial and internal components. The attached lanyard should be checked periodically for wear to prevent accidental loss while hiking.
