Kestrel 2500 Weather Meter/Digital Altimeter

Product Description ------------------- The Kestrel family of weather and environmental meters began in 1996 when NK co-owner Richard Kellerman needed a dependable wind meter for flying his glider. Recognized today as the standard for accuracy and reliability by professionals and enthusiasts alike, Kestrel Weather & Environmental Meters can be found at the top of Everest, on Special Forces missions, chasing tornadoes and in your backyard. All Kestrel Weather & Environmental Meters are designed and built in the USA to stand up to years of rugged use, calibrated to NIST-traceable standards and come with a five-year warranty. .com ---- The Kestrel 2500 Pocket Weather Meter accurately measures wind and temperature and has the added benefits of an air pressure sensor that provides altitude and barometric information, enabling you to follow changes in air pressure that help predict impending changes in the weather. Factor in the 2500's digital altimeter, and you have (almost) all the weather information you need for outdoor activities ranging from model airplane flight to practice. The Kestrel 2500's sensitive and user-replaceable impeller technology provides accurate wind speed info. Additionally, an external temperature sensor and waterproof casing allow you to gauge the temperature of water (it even floats) and snow, as well as the open air. A hard slide-on case, lanyard, and battery are included. Kestrel Pocket Weather Meters like the Kestrel 2500 are an essential tool for target shooters and professionals, and prove invaluable to outdoor enthusiasts (like skiers and ain climbers) who need accurate and up to the minute weather information. It accurately measures: * Wind Chill * Air, Water, and Snow Temperature (displayed in Fahrenheit or Celsius w/ accuracy of +/-1 degree) * Current, Average, and Maximum Wind Speed (displayed in: Beaufort Wind Scale; Knots; MPH; KPH or Feet Per Minute) * Barometric Pressure * Pressure Trend * Altitude Features: * Protective cover with sure-grip molding * Real-time clock * Data hold function * Large easy-to-read display * Waterproof and floats * Quick-response, external thermometer * Innovative design for stability and accuracy in abrupt condition changes * Patented, user-replaceable impeller (no tools needed) * Ultralight impeller is ed in jewel bearings for precision, wide range of speeds and low startup speed * Impeller is shock-ed in a glass-reinforced plastic housing * All instruments and accessories are completely assembled in the USA * Actual size: 4.8 x 1.7 x 0.6 inches (size without case) * Power: User-replaceable CR2032 coin cell battery with average life of 300 hours All Kestrel Pocket Weather Meters are made in the USA and covered by a 5-year warranty against manufacturing defects. Additionally, every single Kestrel manufactured is calibrated for every single value, either directly against NIST-traceable standards or against an intermediary standard that is calibrated daily.
