Got a runaway festie friend? This digital compass helps you keep track of them at a massive gig

Not afraid to @ my mate who needs one of these!

Forget hauling around a massive pole and flag at the next festie because there's a new way for your crew to find you, and it might just be a game-changer.

We've all got that one mate who goes AWOL on their way back from the portaloos or takes a wrong turn on their way back to camp after a long night, right?

Well, Totem Labs dropped their digital compasses that claim to guide you even if you can't tell left from right.

Tracking your crew's real-time locations, the little lights will guide you back to wherever your mates are in a HUGE crowd.

However, if you're rolling deep with a larger group, you might want to pick out the stragglers and set up a buddy system since the compasses can only connect in groups of four.

Apparently, they don’t need cell service, wifi, or Bluetooth, which might just change the game if you’re kicking it off the grid.

As someone who frequents the Rolling Meadows New Year's festival in Waipara, this might just be the next purchase for my crew - the walkie-talkies just weren’t cutting it for us while getting rowdy in the mosh.

Totem promises a full charge of 30 minutes will last you a whopping 72 hours, so it’ll have you covered for a whole weekend even if your phone gives out.

The compasses aren’t being released until April, so there’s still time to round up the crew and decide which of the stragglers might need one.
