What kind of button compass is the best for direction
When you're looking for a compass, you'll likely to choose a cheap and useful compass. A button compass is just the right choice for you. It is not expensive, but can point direction for you.
There are two types of button compasses. One is oil filled compass. The oil filled magnetic compass is very beautiful and has a better plump looking. The top case of this compass is transparent. The oil inside are used to eliminate static electricity so that the compass will have more precise direction. The dry compass is a little more compulicated to produce. We need to paint anti-static after we finish the installation. 99% percent of our customers are using oil filled compass for diameter size below 35mm.
You see there is a groove at the compass edge. This is designed for installtion on other products such as toys, walking sticks, whistles, etc. If you order 1000pcs, we can change the inside plate design to your custom design.
How to make a custom compass
Maybe you're interested in making a custom compass for promotion or in your own brand. Surely we can make it for you. Firstly you can send us the picture or design artwork (such as AI, CorelDraw file) to us and tell us your ideas. Then we will make a sample according to your request. We can put your logo or background image on the compass plate. We can also customize the whole compass plate color, dial, and background for you.
Generally we offer two colors imprint for a custom compass. And if you order more than 2000pcs per model, it's free for customize. But if you want to print your logo on back case, there is a small extra cost about 0.035$. It won't take a long time. Normally we can finish the first sample in 5days and send you goods in a week.
We show you an example of custom compass as below.
How to use a compass
Learning how to use a compass is very important before you start your outdoor life. Not just for walkers, but cyclists and runners too. It's necessary to take a compass with you, but even better if you know what to do with it.
Our guide to using a compass gives you the basic skills, hopefully without over-complicating things.
A compass helps you to find where you are and find your way; this is very useful but can be critical if you get lost and visibility is poor. The main ways you use a compass are:
- 'Setting' the map with the compass so that it matches what you see on the ground, and that you're pointing in the right direction.
- Taking a bearing from the map and walking on a bearing (direction)
- Using a bearing to identify features on the ground by checking the bearing from where you are.
- Identifying your own position using 'back bearings' from two or more distant known features (also known as 'resectioning').
