Wintact Digital Anemometer CFM/CMM, Weather Station Wind Speed Meter Gauge Measuring Air Velocity, Wind Volume, Wind Direction, Ambient Temperature, Humidity with Data Logger for HVAC Duct, Outdoor

Really made it easy to balance airflow in my house. Highly recommended.

Pros: Comes in a nice plastic container to protect it. Easy to read instructions. It is accurate for both wind speed, compass and thermometer. It also tells you the intensity of the wind. We got this because we live on an island and get really bad windstorms, we thought it would be cool to read the levels of the storm and have really liked it so far. Cons: it was difficult to retract because we didn't realize we had to pull the cord down in order to retract. Also, the metal connecting the head to the extendable handle was pretty flimsy and broke pretty easily. We have hot glued it back on and it is okay now.This anemometer and thermometer is accurate and other than the one part I talked about, well put together. I still believe this is well worth the money.

This anemometer can provide me wind speed, wind direction, air tempaerature, and others. it is a very useful tool for the long range shooting (over 1000 yards).

“Weather Station” led me down an inaccurate path. I expected that we would set this up in more or less a stationary location. Our interest in it is derived from our hillside location in the Sierra foothills, between towns, where we seldom get accurate weather forecasting of wind velocity, temperature or humidity.. We get destructive winds which could cause problems because we are a lavender farm getting ready to plant our first acre. The experimental plot we planted last year survived the winds and torrential rains, but they were more mature plants. So, to discover that this is a handheld anemometer requires a new plan! The equipment arrives in a convenient case, and the instructions are detailed and easy to follow. The equipment is obviously well-made and impressive. We’ll be experimenting with it this summer to find the best location to take readings. I’ll amend this review to reflect our experience.

Works great. Good tool to measure HVAC output. Recommend

Muy buen producto, eficiente.

Instrument literally worked once then started giving false readings. I checked all the operation specifications and they were not breeched yet this instrument still does not work.Disappointed.

Overall I think that this device works well and seems to be relatively accurate. I race sailboats and have for pretty much all of my life so I have a pretty good estimate of wind speeds as many of the larger boats I've raced on have anemometers on top of the mast giving a true wind speed/direction reading.The wind direction is where this falls short. I was somewhat under the impression that the head rotated on this to get the wind direction. While the product description is misleading saying it gives direction, it actually does give compass readings. The caveat being, you need to turn your arm into the direction of the wind. As the wind is not visible, it's still a best guess effort if you're facing 100% into the direction of the wind.This unit doesn't cost much more than the smaller pocket-sized units but brings far more features to the table. We'll be using this when we have to do our race committee duty during the season.
