The Kestrel Portable Vane Mount is the ultimate Kestrel accessory for everyone who needs accurate wind speed and directional data, including artillery specialists and weekend hobby shooters. It is an ingeniously simple accessory designed for extreme light weight and portability. The Kestrel Portable Vane Mount can be coupled with any Kestrel 5000 series meter, including a Kestrel 5500, which creates a data logging weather station capable of tracking changes in the wind direction and speed, then tracking them with your data point memory log. The Vane Mount attaches easily to the Kestrel Portable Tripod (or any tripod) to add directional measurement capabilities to your Kestrel Meter and create a complete hands-free weather station you can easily pack into remote locations. Together, the meter, Vane Mount, and case weigh a mere 10.5 ounces (227g). The case holds your extra batteries, Vane Mount and meter in one convenient location and measures 2.5 x 3 x 8.5 inches / 6.5 x 7.5 x 22 cm. This kit is made in the USA and backed by our 5-year warranty.
