Stop guessing at the wind speed and risking a poor setup. Measuring the wind speed is not only useful - it's informative, it's key, it's accurate, and it's fun. Plus - the large rotor on this hand held anemometer means that you get accurate readings without pointing it into the wind, unlike pocket impeller-type devices.
It's Rugged
There is nothing fragile about the Vortex Hand Held Wind Meter. Featured during CNN live Florida hurricane coverage in 2004 (see photo) and 2005!
It's Versatile
Use the anemometer for storm chasing, kitesurfing, windsurfing, target shooting, model aviation, weather monitoring, and all kinds of wind-related activites!
Best of all, it's affordable!
