With Built-in 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 innovative “packaging” of the wind wheel, the new ELV handheld wind meter permits not only determination of the wind strength, but also the complex 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 strength can be displayed in knots, km/h, 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”). The latter display is very useful as it enables you to make a real evaluation of the heat loss of the human body when subject to wind, and therefore prevent hypothermia.

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.
