The Kestrel 4500 Pocket Weather Tracker is Kestrel's flagship meter. Capable
of monitoring and reporting an exhaustive list of environmental parameters – from
temperature to barometric pressure, dewpoint, wind chill, and more**, the Kestrel
4500 is the most feature-rich pocket weather meter in the entire Kestrel catalog.
In addition to the Kestrel 4000's extensive list of capabilities, the Kestrel
4500 has these distinct monitoring functions:
* Digital Compass
* Wind Direction
* Crosswind
* Headwind / Tailwind
These added features make the 4500 the Kestrel Meter of choice for military
professionals, HAZMAT teams, and flight crews. Like all the pocket weather
meters in the Kestrel 4000 series, the Kestrel 4500 is capable of storing and
charting up to 1400 data points for later analysis.
Weekend shooters and military snipers alike have been calling for a Kestrel
Meter with crosswind calculation for years — and the Kestrel 4500 meets
that demand completely. The elite Kestrel 4500 has the most complete list of
features in the entire Kestrel Meter family, with the only absent elements
being the airflow and humidity ratio measurements available with the Kestrel
4200 Air Flow Tracker.
The Kestrel 4500 is also available in the night-vision
preserving NV configuration.
