Kestrel
The incorporated level ensures that the tripod of the vane is installed correctly and that direction readings will be accurate.
Paired with the 2000 data log memory of some stations may be collected a large amount of data such as wind speed and direction. Together, the Kestrel 4500 and tripod, weighing less than 227 grams (8 ounces) and pack a bag compact 5 x 15.25 cm (2 x 6 inches).
Temperature and wind chill can be displayed in °C or °F.
Capable of measuring the slightest breeze, the unit uses an ultralight impeller mounted on jewel bearings to measure wind speed and provide an accuracy of ±3%. For temperature readings, the Kestrel uses a fast-responding, hermetically sealed thermistor accurate to ±1°F (±1°C). Wind chill factor is calculated automatically from wind and temperature data using the U.S. National Weather Services official tables.
Measuring modes and display units can be changed at any time. Results are displayed on a large, easy-to-read LCD which automatically shuts off 45 minutes after last key press. The Kestrel 2000 is housed in a reinforced fiberglass case which is waterproof and floats.
A convenient neck lanyard and one CR2032 battery are included. Two-year manufacturers warranty.
