Product Description
Monitor the current wind speed with this handheld anemometer.

Amazon.com Review
For sailors, surfers, hang-gliders, or kite-fliers, this nifty gadget is a must-have for keeping tabs on current wind conditions. The tiny handheld anemometer comes in a sporty, yellow, plastic, weather-resistant casing, making it ideal for use during water activities or rainy weather. About 5 seconds after powering up, the anemometer reports the current wind speed in either miles per hour, kilometers per hour, meters per second, or Knots plus, displays wind speed on a Beaufort Scale bar graph. The module also records the maximum and average wind speeds for any 2- to 10-second period of time, and recalls them at the user’s prompting. This anemometer also measures current temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius and wind chill. The LCD screen has a backlight, making the display easy to read even in low-light conditions. The display automatically turns off every 8 seconds in order to preserve the life of the 3-volt lithium cell battery. This anemometer comes with a handy neck band to help prevent you from losing it in foul weather, and is covered by a one-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Well versed in the wind by Poubelle (DC) 3 Stars

While this is a great little product, if you are already well versed in the wind and spend your time checking NOAA's website for forecasts, you might want to consider going with a pricier version. This is a sturdy little device, but it would be great if it could include wind direction. If you aren't good at telling the speed of the wind by feel and need a little help, then this is definitely a good investment. Regardless, my kiteboarding pals have fun blowing into this to see who can create the strongest gust!

This product is excellent. Very fast readings. You can get average and maximum wind speed, both in numbers or beaufort scale. A must have for any rc modelist. Mine come with a good battery at full charge. Many months of use with no problem.
