Proster Anemometer - Handheld Anemometer 3 in 1 Digital Wind Speed Meter with Backlight LCD Wind Gauge Wind Air Flow Velocity Measurement for RC Drones Windsurfing Kite Flying Sailing Surfing

Great piece of kit.I live at sea- I don't know why I bought it! 😁😁After years of work as a skipper, and as a live-aboard for 15 years (I'm 62, you know?😁) I'm at-anchor in gale Floris... writing Amazon reviews!!I keep going outside with my new anemometer in my hand... (I hope the neighbours don't see me!) going "Yep. 24 knots, that looks about right!"I actually 'think' in Beaufort- if the BBC shipping forecasts use it, why not I? 😁This won't tell you Beaufort- but who uses it anymore? 👍😁😁😁It's good fun.Whether anyone needs one or not... I don't know?! You can always look out of the window!😁😁A word to the wise.., IT WILL NOT MEASURE AIRFLOW, nor is it designed to do so.It measures wind speeds, NOT air volume.So, if you want to know how 'fast' the air flow on your fan or duct is, this is the wrong instrument to use.Conclusion: utterly pointless- and I'm really glad I bought it! 😁😁👍⛵️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Got mine for drone flying. Don’t always trust my weather app especially at different heights. Really useful. Would recommend checking the silver battery contact strip is slightly pulled out as mine was flat. Having looked on line found how to fix as I nearly sent back. Highly recommend

I bought my dad a stunt kite for his birthday (long story) and on the instructions it said the ideal wind speed for flying it is 10mph, so I thought he would need an anemometer to make sure the conditions were optimum for whatever you do with a stunt kite. Absolutely cannot complain about the quality of the product for the price. If it was required for something more critical than kite flying I would probably spend a bit more, but this is absolutely ideal for its intended purpose. Very easy to set up and use, the buttons are intuitive (apart from turning it off, press both together) and the rubber case and lanyard are really useful. Nice and small as well so it fits in the pocket in the kite bag perfectly.

Really pleased with this item. Compact and easy to use. I use it for setting up windage on ballistics calculator for air rifle hunting.

Lightweight device, unfortunately that’s the end of the good review. It has never worked, changed the batteries over multiple times, but appears to be faulty. I guess you get what you pay for. I had bought as a birthday present, but the recipient didn’t use it right away, so i missed the return window. Next time, I’ll spend a bit more and pay better attention to the negative reviews.

this is good value for money but didnt like measuring flow rates under about 1m/s. I was trying to measure performance as I made improvements to my motorhome air vents but this meter showed 0.0m/s when I could feel air flow. if I blew the meter fan before putting against the vent then it did measure 0.7 or so, so the low flow wasnt enough to get the meters fan turning (which isnt really that useful). I cant speak for the actual accuracy as have nothing to compare against

Why did you choose this product over others?:I already had one but another brand, but quality of this one seamed much better and didn't disappoint, well made and comfortable to hold and read, comes with protective pouch for storage deserves 5 stars.

Product works well and great for knowing wind speeds when up in the hills.But came cracked when I received it.Amazon were great with this though and replacement was sorted straight away
