Cammenga 3H Compass Review
The compass arrived in great shape - looks brand new. Although it was made in 2004, it still glows in the dark pretty well. The glass was clean and the compass card was easy to read. It's accurate - I compared it to a Bruton, a Silva and my the compass app on my phone.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Good compass, but does not function as it should in darkness.
Good compass, but it you can't use it in darkness. These types of compasses apparently use a type of radioactivity to illuminate during darkness. The compass I purchased is apparently old and will not illuminate anymore. It is still a very high quality compass and works perfectly in daylight.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great value, newer manufacture than expected
It's a US issue compass, however it was a much newer manufacture than I expected. This is an added bonus as Tritium has an expected luminous life of 12 years. I had figured to get half of that, instead I got a 2019 date code, which means 10 years of expected life.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

With and without Tritium
It is not lightweight by design, in fact, it is quite robust. It’s a military compass and is built like a tank for that reason. Would I recommend? Tricky question because if you can do without the Tritium feature, and you want the precision capability of a lensatic compass, then I would. However, the Tritium used in these specific military compasses has a useful life of 13 years-the compass I purchased from this EBay source was built in the 70”s and the Tritium is inactive, and therefore does not glow in the dark, illuminating critical points on the compass. Is it a good value? Without theTritium-yes. If you want the Tritium feature, you can send the compass back to Cassenga and for $50 they will replace the Tritium for you, except for the 2 pieces that are at each end of the sighting wire.It also doesn’t come with a case, which you can purchase for another $15.00. Add shipping and you would have a compass worth over $113.00. So, without the Tritium, it is not a good value, IMO. You can buy one with active Tritium and a case for less than that amount. The seller should advise that the Tritium is not active.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

It may not glow. B.F.D.
The glow in mine (mfg 02-10-03) had long since given up the ghost. However, the compass is flawless and seems wear-free. High-quality compass for a good $$$. Your only gripe may be the chance of receiving one with expired tritium. Doesn't matter to me -- I have a flashlight.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Cammenga compass
A+ very solid compass! I’ve had a few cheap compasses in the past they were pretty much useless! Now I feel confident I can find my way out of the woods if I get off track while hunting!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Don't Waste Your Time or Money on This Guy or His Products
Although I was aware of the half-life of the Tritium, the fact that the actual compass does not freely float as it should, so if you need a compass that only points in one direction at any time then this is the one you want. I actually ordered a different model from Cammenga. In the words of Gomer Pyle "Surprise, surprise, surprise" the one from I ordered from Cammenga works. If I had known now that this one was a 44 dollar paperweight I would have ordered from Cammenga initially. In other words DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY WITH THIS GUY OR HIS PRODUCTS.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The best compass around
Top class military Lensetic compass. If someone is looking for an indestructible compass, this is the one. Otherwise, go with the plastic types.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Best bang for the buck
I’m not sure if the compass is a legitimate product. It seems to be. If it isn’t it works for me. The pouch it comes with I was able to modify to use with my belt. For the price I’m very happyVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

Quality
A great little compass that is extremely accurate either in degrees or mils. The tritium works well and doesn’t require charging, unlike the phosphorescent model. Dampening of the compass card and needle is another useful feature.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
