Bubble Warning

By david005

About Me Outdoor Enthusiast

Pros

  • Compact

Cons

  • Bubbles in Bezel
  • Difficult To Read

Best Uses

  • Backcountry Camping
  • Day Trips
  • River Trips
  • Survival

Comments about Highgear TrailPilot 2 Compass:

Great for carrying in your pocket with no sharp corners but really disappointing when bubbles in the liquid display began forming making it cumbersome to read (avoiding the bubbles that influence the needle). It was never exposed to temperature extremes, either.

  • No

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Where is my compass...oh there it is

Pros

  • Clips to pack
  • Compact
  • Simple Controls
  • Strong Construction

Cons

  • Inaccurate
  • No on off switch for temp
  • Short Battery Life

Best Uses

  • Backup compass
  • Campgrounds
  • Day Trips
  • Just to tell temperature

Comments about Highgear TrailPilot 2 Compass:

A great idea but this compass needs work. The temperature gauge is very accurate but there is no on/off switch so your battery drains in about 3 months if you leave it in. The compass itself can be accurate sometimes but mostly not. I have to spin in circles to get a reading that is not always right. It has a hard time finding north. I like the fingertip adjustable declination but when you use it the needle moves all over the place then you have to set yourself up again. If it cant find north what good will it do you. It fits snug in your hand and easy to read. Its light at only 2oz so use it only has a temperature gauge
and backup compass. IF the compass was improved to be reliable then it would be my only compass.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
