Hi, everybody. My name is Andy, with etrailer.com. And today, we're going to be looking at Coghlan's Map Compass. If you are looking for a map compass with a see-through base, that you can lay over your maps to help you in your navigation and get your bearings, this might be the option for you. Let's take a closer look at it. As you can see, this does come included with a lanyard and instructions to help you to get the most use out of your compass and how to properly use it with a map, and this nice see-through base that you can lay over a map to help you navigate.
It does come with a few different types of measurements or scales. We do have our in scale, as you can see here, and we have our millimeter scale, and we have our one to 25,000 scale. This compass is liquid filled and provides reliable, accurate readings. I was able to use this in tandem with my iPhone compass scale, compass app rather, and it was very accurate. You just want to be aware, as with the compasses, you want to keep them away from a magnetic source, so as not to skew the readings of your compass.
So, speaking of this compass, it does have a nice luminous glow-in-the-dark point on our needle, so that it would make for easier reading in low light settings. Just to give you a few ideas of the measurements here, as we are looking at this, going across, this particular map compass sits right at about 3 3/8 inches long, and did a reading of the width, about 2 3/8 inches wide. Now, if you're looking for a map compass with a little more functionality, may I recommend Coghlan's Deluxe Map Compass that has a 5 1/2 inch long baseplate, and that one includes a magnifier to help you in reading the map underneath. You can find that on our website, item number CG47RR. Well, that concludes our look at Coghlan's Map Compass.
Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me today..
