The next generation of weather monitoring has arrived with the Kestrel 5500 Weather Meter.
You can do almost anything with this Kestrel meter. The Kestrel 5500 Weather Gauge offers the same assured accuracy, reliability and ease of use as the original Kestrel 4500. It measures all environmental conditions as well as wind direction, crosswind and headwind. Use it while rowing, golfing, sailing, flying, spraying, shooting and more. Drop-, dust-, and water-resistant and able to withstand extreme conditions intact, the Kestrel weather meter can be taken anywhere. A wide range of carrying cases makes it easy to carry the Kestrel meter with you.
In addition to measuring current environmental conditions, the Kestrel 5500 tracks and logs over 10,000 time-stamped data sets. Your data log can be transferred wirelessly to an iOS/Android device using the LiNK wireless communication option and the Kestrel LiNK App, or to a Windows/Mac computer using the Kestrel LiNK dongle or waterproof USB data transfer cable (both sold separately). device is transferred.
The true versatility of the Kestrel 5500 is evident with the Kestrel Impeller Mount. This precision-engineered accessory securely mounts the Kestrel 5500 to a tripod or other mount.
