To ensure durability, EK-01 compass has an anodized Zinc Alloy metal housing, and is proofed to resist harmful conditions, such as sand particles or being emerged in water.

If you're hiking in low temperatures such as cold winter, or in hot temperatures like the desert, you want to make sure your compass can keep up.

The working temperature of EK-01 compass is -30° C to +60° C / -22° F to +140° F, ensured the liquid does not freeze or produce bubbles inside.

Question:	Does this have a declination adjustment
Answer:	I know that the weight limit of hand luggage is 8kg and this bag when packed would be quite heavy. It probably would fit above in storage. Be aware though that there are quite a few straps on this bag which may flap about. I doubt whether it would fit under the seat as the bag is quite long. The bag has handy pockets and is quite deep so would be good for things that you may need on a flight. Hope this helps.
