Product Description

4000 Pocket Weather Meter - GreyPart #: 0840GRYThe Kestrel 4000 Pocket Weather Meter is the baseline wind and weather meter in the Kestrel 4000 series. What sets the 4000 series apart from the rest of the Kestrel family is that these high tech weather meters have the capability to store up to 2000 points of weather data, enabling you to track changes in the environment over time. This unique function opens up an entirely new realm of weather tracking capabilities for Kestrel Meter users.The Kestrel 4000 Pocket Weather Meter is the first in the next generation of Kestrel Meters. It has all the wind and weather monitoring functions available with the Kestrel 3500 Wind Meter, plus the distinct advantage of data storage, graphing functions, and computer interface technology. With these additional options you will be able to record changes in the weather over time, view these changes as graphs on your Kestrel 4000's display, and even upload the data to your PC or Mac with the Kestrel Interface.The advantage the Kestrel 4000 provides to scientists, athletes, firefighters, automotive technicians, and agricultural specialists is immeasurable. With Kestrel 4000 technology, you will not only know the current weather conditions, but be able to track changes in the environment and therefore make predictions as to what may happen next.The Kestrel 4000 accurately measures:Barometric pressurePressure trendAltitudeRelative humidityHeat stress indexDewpointWet bulb temperatureDensity altitudeWind chillAir, water, and snow temperatureCurrent wind speedAverage wind speedMaximum wind gustWaterproof and floatsEasy to read, backlit displayTime and dateExterior temperature, humidity, and pressure sensors for fast and accurate r

5Kestrel 4000 Wx Meter - As Expected
By RandyIdaho
Received the unit promptly. Functions work exactly as advertised. Even though I ordered the "Gray" model, the unit arrived with a green case (with the standard bluish backlight). I didn't care, but you may get a different color case when you order.Other reviews mentioned inaccurate altitude and/or pressure readings. I don't think they understand how the meter works. It is required to know EITHER barometric pressure OR altitude accurately to have a good value on the opposite (know altitude, e.g. topo map, you will get a good baro reading; know pressure, get a good altitude reading). The meter uses pressure and pressure change to estimate altitude/altitude change, or vice versa.The cross-reference functions between altitude and barometric pressure are a little confusing to understand, but the main thing is to wait a little bit after activating the x-ref function for the opposite value calculation to update. You should only turn on the x-ref function for either altitude OR pressure, not both. If you are staying at approx constant altitude, and know what it is (topo map), use the altitude reference for the baro pressure. If you know the present baro pressure (from weather radio, etc.) and it is not changing rapidly, you can enter the reference pressure for altitude and get a good altitude reading. Useful if weather is stable and you want to know the altitude change (e.g. hiking in mountainous area).I use the meter mostly for tactical shooting, where the calculated density altitude (DA) is most useful for my needs. It still requires either known altitude or known baro pressure to provide accurate calculations.
