Product Information
The Scubapro FS-1.5 Dive Compass with Retractor is a compact underwater navigation instrument built in a pressure-resistant, oil-filled polycarbonate housing, calibrated for Northern Hemisphere use and supplied with a retractor so it stays out of the way until you need a bearing. It measures 3.74 x 2.76 x 0.79 inches and weighs 0.4 lb (0.18144 kg), making it an easy add-on to a recreational scuba kit (item #05.018.121).
Who it is for
This version suits recreational divers who navigate by compass and who dive in a drysuit or a thicker wetsuit. The retractable design gives quick access to a heading check and retracts when not in use. It is calibrated to the Northern Hemisphere, so it is intended for divers operating north of the equator.

Compatibility and sizing
The FS-1.5 is published by Scubapro in two configurations: a wrist-mount version (item #05.018.101) and this retractor version (item #05.018.121). The retractor configuration is the one Scubapro designates for use with drysuits and thicker wetsuits. Because this compass is calibrated for the Northern Hemisphere, divers who primarily dive in the Southern Hemisphere should confirm the correct calibration before ordering.
