A Google Books search for "Brunton Pocket Transit" turns up a plethora of significant discussions of the device in reliable independent sources (one of which says, "The Brunton Pocket Transit, usually called simply 'Brunton,' has for many years been so essential to the field geologist that it is generally thought of as a symbol of the profession"). At least http://hess.metapress.com/content/9p17178502jm5615/ one journal article has been devoted to it. I'd say that notability is amply demonstrated per the . The article obviously needs some work, but information about the device's construction, history, and uses is out there in print sources, most of which are unavailable on the Web
