Very weak compass. I treat it more as a toy. Lots of gadgets, but more for kids than for a serious expedition. I do not recommend it for serious people. The only thing that was useful to me was the whistle, which works flawlessly.

Beyond providing the primary capability of indicating cardinal directions, the compass features:
- temperature gauge,

Overall, it's a decent product. The main feature is the thermometer, which is fine. Other features may not be that useful, but they are there. For this price, it's OK, but I would rely on it only in emergency situations.
-
It reeks of terrible cheapness due to the quality of workmanship. These extras like the fire starter seem like some kind of joke, you can't actually use them. The compass seems to point in the correct direction, although here we run into the fact that a metal mirror is attached next to it, which could affect the compass reading. The thermometer and hygroscope are also far from accurate. I expected a bit more from the company Mil-Tec because they can have nice and affordable gear, but this is not the case here.
-
Overall, nice equipment for the price, the most important thing is the compass works, and the rest also gives fairly good readings. However, the biggest problem is removing elements like the magnifying glass or whistle, which require another thin object to take them out, which is a bit at odds with the purpose.
-
In the photo, it seemed more massive, but in reality it turned out to be a small, compact compass which I immediately liked. Such great functionality for such a small item is wonderful.
-
The gadget is even nice, but in my model there is a plastic excess on the left side, the plastic is not high quality. The most important function, the compass, works very well. The magnifying glass, glass, spirit level, ruler, whistle, and flashlight are all useful and practical, but the fire starter is useless because it is too small. The temperature and humidity measurements are inaccurate. Overall, I recommend the gadget because most of its functions are useful.
-
Quite an interesting all-in-one gadget. The fire starter is really too small, probably only good as an emergency backup. The compass seems to be pretty good, but the graduations are not very precise. It shows temperature and humidity. It's OK.
-
The price to quality ratio is ok. Everything that is there works. The compass does not distort. However, the housing is a bit too delicate. It closes properly and everything stays in place.

Great, my son is happy
-
Besides the compass it has several useful functions, e.g. thermometer, hygrometer, level, magnifying glass, flashlight. Perfect for young bushcraft enthusiasts and that's how I treat this gadget. The thermometer and hygrometer are accurate enough, but their 'glass' is soft and the needle can get damaged. The fire starter is too small and fell out of the holder. Completely unnecessary function. The whole thing is quite light.
-
Great multifunctional compass. Everything in one place and it works :)
-
It's enough for determining direction.
-
I bought it as a gadget. The thermometer is inaccurate, the compass is OK, the fire starter, magnifier and mini flashlight can come in handy. Compact size.
-
Interesting device, it's small but has several useful and rarely found functions, such as a hygrometer. Useful for monitoring humidity in a display case full of airguns, plus there's a thermometer. Great
-
Interesting device. Definitely not for professional measurements, but it is very compact and therefore doesn't take up much space. The most precise feature is the compass and that's what mattered, because other parameters can be easily checked manually. The price is a bit too high.
