TopTes TS-301 Anemometer Wind Speed Meter, 2.26-Inch Display Wind Meter with Backlight, Max/Min/Average - Orange

Great quality little item, arrived very quickly and was well packaged; perfect service, thank you.

I use this for my drone It may justifiably seem a little pricey for some, but I had no idea just how far out my estimates of the wind strength woud have been

Seems ok don't no how accurate it is.

I am a regular shooter and this is really useful for setting windage. It is a bit more accurate than trying to read the flags at Bisley.

Light weight & compact. As product description. Accurate enough to decide whether to fly or not.

I purchased this after considerable assessment of the various anemometers. I was reluctant to get the small meters using the CR3032 button cells and I was not keen to have the larger meters. This is comfortably small and light but is powered by three AAA cells. To my surprise they were genuine Duracell batteries. I tested the accuracy against my bicycle GPS whilst cycling to cause airflow. It gave reasonably similar readings. The thermometer also compares with the Garmin reading and as with all electronic thermometers you need to give time for the sensor to equilibriate with the surroundings. It's not an instant response that some seem unreasonably to expect. I like that it has a screw to secure the battery compartment as this ensures the cover stays in place and the batteries do not fall out. A basic No. 0 or 1 Philips should be suitable. I was a little sceptical of the reviews which mostly seemed to be from users chosen to receive the anemometer for free but can vouch that the meter performs well and is good value.

After 2 years of low use, the anemometer provides different read if you check the wind from one side or from the other, and even if both positions the read is smaller than the real wind, so it looks like it lost precision.
