Pros & Cons

Pros

Sometimes you just want to know how hard the wind is blowing and this sure fills that bill. Has multiple wind measurement settings. The readings seem to be consistent, but i do not have a means to assess their accuracy.

I use this as a handheld on my sailboat and it works great! Easy to operate, seams pretty accurate. Easy to set up. No need to hunt through the instructions to figrue out the functions.

    This device is easy to hold and use but


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It could be improved if there was a base that it could fasten to that would allow it to swivel to accommodate movement by wind direction like an anemometer on a wind vane

    In other worlds a fin that would direct the anemometer to the proper wind direction


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    That means that you and your aching arms outstretched in a fixed position have to stand there positioned precisely in the right direction to capture the most accurate wind speeds


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It gets tiresome waiting for a wind gust


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    One option is to have a mini windsock included to help determine the precise wind direction


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    A stick with a ribbon would do
