Handheld Anemometer Review

I do basic weather watching for the National Weather Service. I have always wanted to measure wind speeds, living on the East coast in hurricane area, but wasn't sure what to get and which one was trustworthy. I was reading about this Anemometer and it appeared to be good and the price was great. I ordered it and it works great so far. Had it a little over a month and it is holding up good. It is simple to use and shows outside temp. readings also. The neck strap I love so I don't have to worry about dropping it. I would recommend this one to anyone who wants to measure wind speeds. The only negative thing I could say is I wish it measured wind speeds up to like 100 mph or more...but I guess I wouldn't be standing up very long if it did...lol

Small and handy - J. Miller - Hohenwald, TN
Very small unit, but very handy. Lanyard hangs it around your neck, but it would be nice to have a little pouch to protect it if you want to put it in your pocket. Great value.

Small and accurate! - Erik Gustafson - Montgomery, Illinois
Many handheld anemometers are pricy but this one is inexpensive and good. Only real limitation is to the max windspeed. So if you chase hurricanes then you my want something else!br /br /Temp seems to be quick to adjust but does not seem to take it externally. Great for outdoor use since it seems to be sealed from the elements quite well. I cant wait to test it out in next year's storm chase season!
