Small enough to fit in your pocket, it’s waterproof and it floats! Easy-to-read, reflective LCD offers three operating modes including wind speed, average wind speed, and maximum wind speed. All modes are available in knots, meters per second, kilometers per hour, miles per hour, feet per minute, or Beaufort scales at an accuracy of ±3%. Unit automatically shuts down after 45 minutes. To measure wind speed, this meter relies on a precision, ultralight, anodized aluminum impeller shock-mounted in glass-reinforced plastic housing. Impeller can be popped out and replaced if necessary.
