Hand Bearing Compass
|
|
The Hand Bearing Compass can be used in two different
ways. To take the bearing of a point, the compass is
held near the eye and read down the line of sight. A
stable bearing appears in the prism in perfect focus day
or night. For quick reference, a heading can be
determined by looking straight down at the compass and
reading the degree shown with the magnifying lens. |

The contrasting black and red numbers on the compass card make
it quick, clear, and easy to read. The compass features a
liquid-dampened card with photo luminescent night lighting
that quickly charges by placing the compass momentarily under
bright light. No batteries are required. A colorful, sturdy,
rubber housing protects the compass. It also includes an
integral lanyard, which serves as a convenient neck or wrist
strap. The compass has a lifetime warranty, is factory
certified, and is accurate to within 1 degree. It measures
1-3/16" high x 3-3/16" diameter and weight 4.6 ounces. The
package includes directions for use and a numbered calibration
certificate.
