Review: Silva Ranger SL compass - I’ve been after the SL (or survival compass as it used to be known) for about 35 years and finally remembered to buy one! Ideal reserve compass for use in the hills and good to have in the jacket pocket for when your rucsac goes off the cornice. Wouldn’t use it for orienteering or multi-resection exercises, but for what it was designed for, glad I’ve finally got one. A lot of people via desertcart post criticism of it (notably the bubble in the dish) but I don’t have this and it can be cured anyway. My compass came from Inglesport in Ingleton who are a reputable UK supplier I know anyway ## Features - Built-in sundial - Ideal as a spare - Can be attached to your jacket with a safety pin - With fluorescent elements, also suitable for night use ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0045JCQF4 | | Best Sellers Rank | 76,213 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) 216 in Compasses (Sports & Outdoors) | | Brand Name | Silva | | Country Of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 3.8 out of 5 stars (182) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 07318860185724 | | Item Dimensions L x W | 5.9L x 4.1W centimetres | | Item Type Name | compass | | Item Weight | 22 Grams | | Manufacturer | RELGV|#Relags | | Manufacturer Part Number | 34952 | | Map Scale | mm and inches | | Material Type | Acrylic, polyamide, fibreglass | | Model Number | 30-0000034952 | | Mounting Type | safety pin | | Special Features | Built-in sundial | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Silva - **Item weight:** 22 Grams - **Material:** Acrylic, polyamide, fibreglass - **Product dimensions:** 5.9L x 4.1W centimetres - **Special feature:** Built-in sundial ## Images ![Compass Compass Ranger SL - Multi-Colour, One Size - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71MOHmGvILL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good for the price and size, weight. *by B***B on 31 July 2015* Small light and handy, perfect for most users if weight and size is more important than features and pin point accuracy for detailed Nav.

Ideal reserve compass for use in the hills and good to have in the jacket pocket for when your rucsac goes off the cornice. Wouldn’t use it for orienteering or multi-resection exercises, but for what it was designed for, glad I’ve finally got one. A lot of people via Amazon post criticism of it (notably the bubble in the dish) but I don’t have this and it can be cured anyway. My compass came from Inglesport in Ingleton who are a reputable UK supplier I know anyway ### ⭐ This compass is defective *by P***K on 11 December 2020* I bought the Silva Ranger SL compass three separate times, returning the compass to Amazon each time. Each of the three compasses that I was sent had the same two defects: 1. an air bubble in the compass fluid big enough to interfere with the movement of the needle 2. The "start" arrow printed in white on the base of the compass points 180 degrees in the wrong direction. Defect 2 is obviously a major issue because you do not want to be sent in directly the opposite direction from the direction in which you are trying to go. I am an experienced mountaineer and have happily used a standard Silva baseplate compass (without a mirror) for many decades for mountain navigation. I bought the Silva Ranger SL mirror compass because I wanted to experiment with a mirror compass and though this admirably compact model would be good as a back up compass for walking in less challenging conditions. I can only speculate that Silva had a batch of Ranger SL compasses which were mistakenly manufactured with these defects. Instead of disposing of them as defective, the compasses got onto a "grey market" for defective goods and were sold on by Amazon's supplier as if they were correctly made. The compass can be used with these defects as long as you know what they are and are prepared to tolerate an annoying air bubble and a direction of travel arrow pointing 180 degrees in the wrong direction when navigating. But I would not recommend buying this compass if you can find a non-defective version. If it was not defective I would have given this compass model 5 stars. ## Frequently Bought Together - Silva Ranger SL Compass - SUUNTO MC-2 Compass: Top-of-The-line Compass for Professionals & serious Hikers - Silva Compass CASE Black, One Size --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/55290148-compass-compass-ranger-sl-multi-colour-one-size](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/55290148-compass-compass-ranger-sl-multi-colour-one-size) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-07-03*
