This one is a perfect replacement for a much lower price
I lost my Suunto version of this that I had for years, and I use it as a cinematographer to know exactly where the sun will be when we shoot. This one is a perfect replacement for a much lower price. It's solidly built, very similar to the Suunto, and in fact if it were handed to me without me knowing, I would have thought it was made by Suunto except for the little Steren label. Even the red lanyard is the same. My iPhone has the Helios app on it to tell me the Azimuth and Inclination, and while I can use the iPhone itself for most locations to get me a rough indication, I find that it's not as accurate as I sometimes need to be. If it's critical to know when the sun will come through a window or the light will be perfect (or when the light will become terrible), this is a great product.

Not very accurate
This is a copy of a Suunto model. The quality seems ok on the surface, but my compass is 2-3 degrees off compared to an old Suunto. I'm regularly hitting my survey points with the Suunto, but missing them with the Steren, so I'm confident the error is in the Steren. Also, there is no declination adjustment like the Suunto and the focusing is not as crisp. I bought this one because it was cheaper, but I guess you get what you pay for. Many people may be ok with the innaccuracy, but I wish I spent the extra on the original Suunto.

Equal or better than suunto... For much chraper
It's odd that the pouch has s dish network logo on it and they don't mention it. I work for a directv and ViaSat contractor so it's weird carrying the dish logo, but it works amazingly well. I had a suunto before that died after years of abuse, and I find the numbers on this easier to read and clearer. Not to mention the price difference. I've recommended it to everyone I work with as well

Old fashioned approach is best...
I am an amateur radio operator and radio enthusiast. I have a DirectTV satellite for my trailer. What makes this old fashioned, highly accurate instrument special is that it does not depend on batteries or cellular service. I use this instrument for locating AMSAT and DirectTV satellites. I also use it calibrate the dish on my home to ensure that I have the strongest possible signal.I highly recommend it.
