I suspect you could do it yourself. Probably involves stroking it with a magnet. (I wouldn't let most Cotswold employees use a magnet unsupervised ;-))

I sort of tried and failed already. Maybe it's time for another try.

I think silva will do it for free... if it is a silva compass. I saw somebody recommending fixing it with one of those magnets farmers feed to cows to trap sharp bits of metal. |

My one was a Silva. I took it back to see if they could return it for repair, and they did it in the shop while I waited.

While I think, just posted this on the Ultra thread but it's probably worth posting here too... Interesting read for anyone with a rechargeable head torch, especially if it's one of the cheap CREE ones bought online from China.. grough.co.uk |

Bloody hell, that could have been worse couldn't it? An abject lesson in not buying cheap shite there methinks!

We spent 5 mins looking for the lens out of a friend’s head torch a couple of years ago on its first outing but I’ve not seen one spontaneously combust 🔥

Our Tuss has a wander on the outfield and seemed to suggest the pitch might offer a bit of bounce ![]() |
