Handheld Wind Meter with Thermometer

Stationary wind meters have not always been available at all sites where they are needed, such as sites for flying model aircraft, para-gliding, sailing, surfing and many other leisure activities. In addition to the excellent portability provided by its compact design and the inovative "packaging" of the wind wheel, the new ELV handheld wind meter permits not only determination on the wind strenght, but also the comples assessment of the weather situation at the site. Short-term changes can be understood more quickly using the analog bar graph display rather than the digital display. The wind strenght can be displayed in knots, kh/m, miles/h, m/s or Beaufort as desired, with the temperature either in °C or °F, or alternatively as a wind-chill equivalent ("sensed temperature"). In this respect operation of the hand-held device with only two large keys is especially simple. The protective cap that protects the wind wheel against damage in transport can also be used as a stand for the device when in operation, so that a firm and secure mounting is provided. For battery conservation the device has an automatic battery disconnect.
