As with all Kestrels, this handheld weather meter’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 and snow, as well as the open air. A hard slide-on case, lanyard, and battery are included.

This handheld weather meter was originated as a basic model for long range shooters at an affordable price and someone who didn’t need the ballistic features built in like the 5700 Elite or any others in the Kestrel Ballistics Line of meters.

For those using it at night, the Olive Drab NV version of this handheld weather meter features a night-vision preserving backlight. This backlight incorporates an optical filter to reduce overall brightness and minimize blue and green spectrum light to preserve night vision. (Note: This backlight appears soft greyish pink, not “red”, and is still in the visible spectrum, so is not compatible with night-vision equipment.)
