The compass was always off by at least 20 - 25 degrees (compared to a professional analog compass) and after 6 months, could no longer be calibrated. So now it is just more trash. Still searching for a decent compass at a reasonable price.Final comment. I discovered that with a little patience it calibrated just fine. Also discovered that it is actually fairly accurate. Turns out my previous compass was off (I had just assumed that IT was correct, not so). ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good after market compass *by S***R on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on May 22, 2013* My new car did not have a compass, but with all the outdoor adventures I have, I needed something. I also was hoping for better resolution than the built-in-rear-view-mirror compass, say 16 compass points instead of just 8.I am happy to say this product measured up quite well. It shows degrees as well as 16 compass points. The suction cup is very strong and easy to stick low on my windshield. Since it is battery operated, it is good that it shuts off until I need it. And the night light is great, but I wish it would stay on a little longer.The calibration was not that bad at all, as other reviewers have indicated. About 3 loops and then some driving around did it. Just don't place it near a roof pillar.For the money, not bad, considering the dealer option for a compass is $599.Sometimes the hinge rattles a little for some unknown reason. ### ⭐ Maybe I just had bad luck ... twice *by C***S on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on June 11, 2013* When I saw this compass it looked like just what I had been looking for, so in spite of the price(which I thought was a little high), I ordered it. It is a nice looking unit. The instructions tell you how to calibrate it.... basically, you push a button and it starts flashing, you drive the car slowly around in a circle until it stops flashing (usually a couple of driving circles), then the flashing stops, the compass is calibrated and ready to use. I have had several digital compasses and they all work about like this. This compass never stopped flashing, despite multiple attempts, varying the placement, even trying different combinations of turning it on and off when I thought it had been long enough. I tried new batteries, same result. SO I gave up and returned it and asked for an identical replacement, thinking that any product can have a bad one occaisionally. New compass.... same result. So I am returning the second one and I'll look for something similar, but not the same thing. Sorry to say, it just didn't work for me. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/9139012-12-6033-digital-compass](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/9139012-12-6033-digital-compass) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
