The Kestrel mount was designed primarily for the 4500 model to be able to read the wind direction more accurately and hands-free.
The holder assembles in seconds and the pin allows the unit to rotate freely even in light breezes. The built-in level ensures that the stand is installed correctly so that readings are accurate and precise.
Together, the Kestrel 4500 and the stand weigh less than 227 grams and fit into a small carrying case.
The stand should be placed on any Kestrel series tripod to further enrich the functionality of this weather station.
