Product Details

The NK Kestrel 1000 Pocket Wind Meter is very accurate, very tough and very affordable. You can carry it in a pocket, hold it in one hand, and use it whenever and wherever you need to know wind speed. It features a large liquid crystal display which is easy to read under almost any conditions and offers three operating modes - wind speed, average wind speed, and maximum wind speed. The display units can be changed at any time, with choices to suit a wide variety of applications (knots, meters per second, kilometers per hour, miles per hour or feet per minute, Beaufort). To measure wind speed, the Kestrel relies on a precision ultralight impeller mounted in jewel bearings. This impeller yields high accuracy (± 3%) and a low startup speed (0.3 M/S). The Kestrel is waterproof and floats.
· Performance is guaranteed for one full year.
