  • Finished the Pacific Crest Trail with me. Useful for general navigation.
Style: 4-function
Temperature is hard to read but does give you a general idea which was important to me. Compass worked great for general navigation. Actually relied on it during the PCT hike to get me through places where you couldn't find trail due to snow. The compass gave proper general direction for navigating in the woods when I needed it. I kept it clipped to my shoulder pad and it never had any problems or breakage despite being beat around all the time when taking my pack on and off, put on trees, rocks etc. ... show more

  • Bought for whistle and thermometer, compass is a plus.
Style: 4-function
Whistle: Very loud. At first I was blowing on it too lightly and thought it was defective. I gave it a nice blow and wowza, yes it works great! Short bursts work well too. Compass: I'm completely new at using a compass but I do know west has to stay west and so forth. I've tried it many times in my house, I shook it hard many times and checked if the directions still pointed in the appropriate direction. It did for the most part, although it seems to be off by about a dash sometimes, but that could be me I guess. Thermometer: The print is small but my eyes for close-up objects is perfect so I have no problem reading this. For those of you who are far sighted, it may be a bit harder. I have no other thermometer to compare accuracy perfectly, but using my own bodies thermometer, it seems on point. When I turn off the AC in the house the temperature on this baby slowly increases and vice versa. The numbers that shown are by 10 values and the marked dashes in between are by 5 point values, plus an extra red dash for the 32 degree Fahrenheit. Magnifier: Its takes a tiny bit of effort to pull it out, but you can definitely do it no problem. Push it in from one end and use your nails to grasp it and swing it open from the other side. Or use a thin tool like a knife or small tool to push it all the way through. Usefulness: it's a little magnifier, it magnifies things a little. Other: The clasp itself is all plastic, no hinges. To open it wide enough to hang, you give it a push and it bends in somewhat. On it's own the clasp sits slightly ajar (1mm). It can attach to anything thicker than a millimeter and not fall out. I was going to give this four stars because the compass MAY be off by a dash, BUT that may be my lack of skill so in all fairness I won't take off a star. Also even if it IS off by a dash, I am backpacking trails so I don't need anything heavy duty, and if I did I would buy a compass on it's own. This little item is amazing! I bought it primarily for the whistle and thermometer and it meets my expectations. The compass is a plus and I don't care squat for the magnifier either way. The clasp is a simple plastic thing, it's thick, sturdy and will do it's job, I don't see that breaking anytime soon, It can also be replace by a tiny carabiner if you prefer. All in all 100% worth the money. ... show more

  • YOUR survival is YOUR responsibility.
Style: 4-function
I am compiling a Bug Out Bag [BOB] for every family car. I included these as a key component. My thoughts: expecting [or just hoping] that others will come to your rescue during a natural disaster like flood, hurricane, or a forest fire, or even just a stranded auto ... is not enough. YOUR survival is YOUR responsibility. While putting these BOB's in every car might not be the best location, having them ready is the first step, knowing where they are located is the second step. Hint: I actually plan to store each in a water-resistant plastic ammo box ["Plano"], that includes all items ... plus a small backpack for easy "no hands" carrying. Dave@Texas ... show more

  • Cool tool to clip on a zipper. Just practice with it.
Style: 4-function
Really is a cool item in a small package. I magnifier actually works for starting a fire. The whistle is great for getting someones attention when at the back of a pack of ATV riders. The thermometer is just kind of cool but I dont think i need it to tell me its cold or hot out. The compass could be handy if a person knows how to use it or knows which way they need to go. Most aren't good with either and should go outside and practice with this kind of stuff so if NEEDED, a person knows how to use it. Learning to use these kind of tools when your in a bind is a bad bad bad idea. A person should learn how to use a compass and learn what can throw it off giving you a false reading, getting a person more lost than they were to begin with. I thought it would be a good idea to give one to my girlfriend when we went on a hike and after 30 minutes or so, I ask her to try to build a fire with it. After a bit of confusion and looking for fire starting material, then partnered with some patience and persistence, we had a small fire and she had alot of pride in her small accomplishment. But even more important, she knew she could start a fire if she needed to with this handy little tool, and proved it! I bought one and liked it well enough that I bought 4 more for my EDC kits I put together. ... show more

  • Amazing for the cost
Style: 4-function
I've had two of these whistles since 2015 and both have held up spectacularly. The use has been moderate, tagging along for hikes and getting thrown about in a backpack for emergencies. It's rather rugged. The whistle is pretty loud, but you need to put effort into it. A light blow won't make any noise. A storm whistle is far more effective and won't get clogged with water. The compass is pretty accurate, I have compared it to a Suunto compass I use for maps and it's dead on, it's simply smaller so it can be harder to read and lacks any bearings. The thermometer works, and goes from 120F to -20F, but is quite small so detailed readings can be difficult. But works for general use. Finally the little magnifier is alright, I don't find it too useful. Tried to use it as a magnifying lens to start a fire but haven't had much luck with it. Maybe my review doesn't sound too reassuring, but like I said the cost and compactness and ruggedness make it very useful and easy to have everywhere or to have multiple. I've certainly used it on many occasions. ... show more
