Measures Wind Speed, Wind Direction, Heading, Crosswind, Head/Tailwind, Temperature, Barometric Pressure, Altitude, Humidity, Wind Chill, Dew Point, Wet Bulb, and Heat Index
For years Kestrel customers have been asking for wind direction along with wind speed. New for 2007, the Kestrel 4500 does just that with it's built in digital compass. It also calculates crosswind and headwind / tailwind with reference to a user-set target heading, and stores the information along with all the other environmental readings in its 1400 data point memory.
Pair the 4500 with the Kestrel Vane Mount and you have a data-logging weather station that sets up in seconds and rotates in the slightest of breezes. Did we mention that the whole kit is the ultimate in portability? It packs down into a 2 x 6 inch pouch and and weighing under 227 grams.
The Kestrel 4500 is also available in the NV configuration.
