Kestrel 3000 Weather Meter

Product Information

Having done this, you can now build all the rifle and ammunition combinations that you will be using directly into your Kestrel. You now have firing solutions for all of your set ups at your fingertips, in varying conditions at any range. Calculates relative humidity, heat stress index, wind chill, dew point temperature wind speed and more While stood on the range recently with a group of experienced international competitors and novices alike, I noticed a large number of the shooters had Kestrel wind meters with them. There were a couple set up on tripods, some lying on shooting mats and some in peoples’ hands. I couldn’t help but watch as one of the novice shooters approached an experienced shot, Kestrel in hand, and said: “Can you show me how this works?” He was met with the reply: “Ask Mike, as he knows how they work best.”

Once the unit is out of its box, setting it up is straightforward – you simply set the date and time, then calibrate the compass. The compass will come into use behind the scenes a lot, so following these simple steps will help ensure you have a trouble-free calibration…

All measurements of the top highest wind speeds were done using automatic systems. The reason that there are no handheld devices in the top is that human beings can only withstand wind speeds up to 160-240km/h (100-150mph). Conclusion The Kestrel LiNK® App for iOS/Android allows you to Wirelessly connect with iOS and Android devices and remotely view real-time environmental data and receive alerts for changing conditions. Available for your Kestrel 5 Series Meter or DROP Logger, Kestrel LiNK also provides easy transfer of the Kestrel’s stored data log, a clear graph of all historical data. Alerts can be customized based on temperature, heat index, wind, or other measurements. LiNK enables easy firmware updates of Kestrel 5 series meters. Kestrel Wind Meters are used by NFL trainers to determine how frequently the athletes need to hydrate, and when the conditions are unhealthy for strenuous exercise. It’s become practically required equipment for wildland firefighters—users whose lives literally depend on the accurate weather data their Kestrel 3000 meter provides. Paragliders and glider aeroplanes use the data from the anemometer to ensure conditions are safe to fly Thanks to the patented external temperature sensor and waterproof construction, the Kestrel 2000 weather meter can take accurate water and snow temperature readings, and since it is isolated from the case, you can be sure that the temperature reading is accurate and not influenced by your hand warming the unit.

Wind Capture - Intuitive Wind Capture feature instantly measures and adjusts for real-time wind conditions The operational temperature range of the liquid crystal display and batteries is 14° F to 131° F / -10 °C to 55 °C. Measurements beyond the operational range can be taken by briefly exposing unit to extreme conditions such that the display and batteries remain within the operational range. Storage range -22 °F to 140 °F / -30 °C to 60 °C. Load & Go Convenience – Upload a gun profile for your specific rifle and bullet in the 2700 using the free Kestrel LiNK Ballistics app, then leave your phone behind – the 2700 is a fully functional, stand-alone field tool Your content must not be illegal or unlawful, must not infringe any person's legal rights, and must not be capable of giving rise to legal action against any person (in each case in any jurisdiction and under any applicable law).Temperature that a volume of air must be cooled to at constant pressure for the water vapor present to condense into dew and form on a solid surface. Can also be considered to be the water-to-air saturation temperature. You will now see two wind readings on the screen – the low reading and the high reading. All your solutions will use this data until you change it. F to 131° F | -10 °C to 55 °C Measurements may be taken beyond the limits of the operational temperature range of the display and batteries by maintaining the unit within the operational range and exposing it to the more extreme environment for the minimum time necessary to take reading. On occasion, you are going to notice that the first wind measurement is saying something like ‘.068L’, yet the wind reading is saying ‘3.76R’. You know the wind is coming from the right, so why is the Kestrel saying to aim off to the left as the lowest wind reading? The simple answer to this one is spin drift. If you have no wind to affect the bullet you will still need to hold off to the left to counter the spin drift. Your Kestrel can be set to calculate and thus compensate for spin drift. Spin drift is turned on by default. It can be turned off via the Environment menu. Vane anemometer - These types are also known as propeller or windmill anemometers. Like cup anemometers, they use wind blades that turn, instead of cups. Some handheld propeller anemometers are also called impeller wind monitors because their propellers blades are protected by a caging unit to protect your hand.

Once you have chosen your gun/bullet name, press the down arrow and again highlight MV. If you need to, you can obtain your MV from the box that your ammunition came in, but this will only be a very rough approximation. Ideally, you will want to use a chronograph to establish your correct MV, although we will be able to correct this later.

This type of anemometer is used to measure wind speeds over a great area, but it is less accurate than other anemometers. The reason we don’t have data from other anemometers in tornadoes is quite obvious: they tend to get destroyed when a tornado hits! Highest Wind Speed Outside a Tornado q) be offensive, deceptive, fraudulent, threatening, abusive, harassing, anti-social, menacing, hateful, discriminatory or inflammatory; or Height above Mean Sea Level ("MSL"). Temperature compensated pressure (barometric) altimeter requires accurate reference barometric pressure to produce maximum absolute accuracy.
