Turn your Kestrel 5 Series meter into a complete weather station with this lightweight, portable vane mount accessory. Includes a MOLLE/PALS compatible, Berry-Compliant, tactical carry case. This precision engineered accessory securely mounts any Kestrel 5 Series meter to any tripod or other ¼-20 fitted bracket. Once mounted, the Kestrel 5 Series becomes a full-featured weather station with a large wind vane and precision pivot that keeps the Kestrel oriented into the wind for continuous measurement and logging of wind speed, wind direction, and all other key weather parameters. The Kestrel 5 Series Vane Mount offers many improvements over the Kestrel 4 Series Vane Mount including a sturdier one-piece boom, easier assembly, more secure retention of the Kestrel meter, and the convenience of being able to also use the Kestrel mounting clip as a fixed ¼-20 compatible bracket, allowing use of an extension pole for taking wind or air flow readings. Your Kestrel 5 series meter can be conveniently stored and carried inside the Vane Mount tactical carry case, making it the world’s most portable weather station. The entire Kestrel + Vane Mount kit weighs just 11.1 ounces / 314 grams and measures just 2.5 x 3 x 9 inches / 6.5 x 7.5 x 23 cm. The carry case is made of 500-denier Cordura nylon and embedded Kevlar fabric, which is tear-resistant and lightweight, and the dense and heavy padding protects the contents in transit. MOLLE/PALS mounting straps on the rear of the case give you many carry options. The case is Berry Compliant and manufactured exclusively for Kestrel in the United States by TYR Tactical. An internal battery pouch secures extra AA batteries and MOLLE attachment points on the rear secures the kit to your belt or pack.
