Simple and compact, the Kestrel 1000 Handheld Wind Meter fits right in the palm of your hand and weighs a mere 2.29 ounces (65 grams). It's also extremely durable and completely waterproof, allowing you to measure wind speeds even in the harshest weather conditions. The Kestrel 1000 can easily be switched between mph, km/h, ft/min, m/s, knots and Beaufort.
Convenient and reliable, the Kestrel 1000 is the perfect tool for model plane pilots, kite boarders, and other outdoor enthusiasts who rely on accurate wind speed information. The Kestrel 1000 is the most common handheld wind instrument for a DZSO (Drop Zone Safety Officer). A hard slide-on protective case, lanyard, and lithium battery are included.
Every Kestrel Meter features a large, 1" user replaceable impeller mounted on a sapphire jewel bearing, which means it starts rotating with the slightest puff of air. This patented impeller is user-replaceable by simply pushing it out with your thumbs, which means it can easily be replaced if it is damaged or worn. The measurements from the wind impeller are taken magnetically. The impeller is not glued or attached to the unit. Because every new impeller is calibrated in a custom wind tunnel at our USA based factory, if your application demands regular calibration, simply pop in a new impeller and the Kestrel Wind Meter is restored to like-new factory calibration standards.
Winds can be measured on any Kestrel up to 135 mph. NK only guarantees the accuracy of the measurement to be within tolerance up to 89 mph. Also at those speeds, it is not recommend any prolonged exposure as it could damage the impeller at those speeds for any prolonged length of time. It is similar to being able to measure very hot temperatures outside of the spec range but do not do it for any extended time.
With a replacement battery door cover on hand, you can be sure your Kestrel is always ready to provide fully accurate wind or air flow measurements. And the best thing? Replacing your battery door cover is hassle-free and tool-free; just use a coin to open the compartment and replace it with a new cover.This Kestrel Basic Series Replacement Battery Door Cover is for Kestrel 1000, 2000, 2500, 2700, 3000, 3500, and 3550 Models.

The Kestrel 1000 handheld wind speed meter (anemometer) is a simple, reliable and extremely accurate air velocity measurement device delivering current, average and maximum wind speed readings, you can easily change between mph, km/h, ft/min, m/s, knots and Beaufort. This is the meter of choice for crane operators and water sports enthusiasts alike.
With a simple three button operation the Kestrel 1000 wind meter offers readings in mph, km/h, ft/min, m/s, knots and Beaufort. This handheld anemometer (wind speed meter) is drop-tested to MIL-STD-810F making it extremely durable as well as being waterproof it can also float in water.
Yes, your KST1000 can be used for dryfire or airsoft training. You will have to tailor your sensitivity settings for your exact weapon. If your gun is particularly quiet, this can be challenging. First thing is to adjust the sensitivity to pick up your weapon. If it is loud, you may be able to have the KST1000 relatively far away. If not, it may be helpful to position the timer close to where the weapon will be fired. Depending on your weapon system and accessories, the timer will also likely hear other sounds. This can include racking a slide or drawing from a holster.
For both RO and solo operation, it is important to understand where the buzzer and microphone are located on your KST1000. They are on the back of the unit in the upper half of the device.If you are acting as an RO and timing another shooter, you will have the best results if you do not cover the buzzer and mic with your hand.This means that you can face the screen toward yourself while you work.When you are wearing the KST1000 on your hip, try not to block the microphone with clothing.In more sensitive settings, you may find that your KST1000 interprets rough handling, such as quickly removing it from your belt, as a shot. You can eliminate this by making use of the mute function.
For most situations, this can be left off. But for extremely quiet weapons, the buzzer may be louder than the gunshot so it is necessary for the KST1000 to selectively mute during the buzzer. This means that it will not detect gunshots that happen concurrently with the start beep, which is defaulted to 300 ms. While scrolling through this setting, there are also plus values. These are essentially echo values for the buzzer mute.
Your KST1000 can be configured for fixed or random start delays in the main menu. With the left and right buttons, you can scroll the fixed start delay. Scroll all the way left to turn off the fixed delay. The random line allows you to add random time to the start delay. Again, scroll right and left to change the maximum randomized time. This combination of fixed and random delay will result in a random delay between 2.0 and 3.0 seconds. To change the lower bound, make the adjustment in the start delay line. To change the upper bound, make the adjustment in the random line.
Your KST1000 can be configured for up to three par times.To enable the first par time, click the enter button on first par time. Use the right or left buttons to select on. Press the gear button to return to the main menu and you will see a time. Use the left and right buttons to change the time. You can then add a second par time as desired, and from there a third as well. It is important to know that you must enable them in numerical order. For example, you cannot enable the second par time if the first par time is disabled.
You can connect the KST1000 to our Kestrel LiNK Ballistics app for iOS or Android via Bluetooth. Once connected ,you will be prompted if a new firmware is available. Simply select Yes and it will begin the update.
The default Dry Fire sensitivity setting should be a good starting point for most Shot Timers in most environments. However, there are several reasons why it may not be the right setting for your situation.First, it's possible for a Shot Timer to interpret ambient noise as shots fired. This is a function of both the specific microphone circuit in your Shot Timer, as well as volume of your ambient noise. Not every Shot Timer will "hear" sounds exactly the same, particularly in the low volume range for dry fire. As such, any 2 units will likely have different sensitivity values which start triggering on just ambient noise. This is normal. If your Shot Timer is triggering on ambient noise, simply increase the sensitivity setting in the Sensitivity sub menu until ambient noise no longer triggers shots.Second, it's possible that the sound of dry fire is too quiet for the standard setting to pick up. In this situation, the sensitivity can be reduced in the Sensitivity sub menu until the shots are triggered. It is also helpful to position the Shot Timer as close as is practical to the gun.
Here's the one that started it all! Kestrel developed the 1000 Pocket Wind Meter in 1995 when NK co-owner, Richard Kellerman, needed a reliable wind meter for flying his glider. Over 10 years later, it looks a little slicker, and it still gives you the reliable, accurate wind measurements that you need.
The Kestrel 1000 Wind Meter is the base model in the extensive assortment of Kestrel pocket weather meters. Simple and compact, the Kestrel 1000 fits right into the palm of your hand and weighs a mere 65 grams. It's also extremely durable and totally waterproof, allowing you to measure wind speeds in even the harshest weather conditions. It even floats.

Kestrel Weather Instruments have become known worldwide as the most dependable and durable handheld weather instruments on the market. We are often asked which meter is the best one to buy? Well, that depends on a multitude of factors. The first being price. Secondly would be what measurements do you require? Different models offer different environmental measurements. Some specialty meters also do calculations specific to it's job function such as the Kestrel 5500FW Fire Weather Meter. With the 5500FW Fire Weather Meter, you will get all of the same environmental readings as the 5500 Weather Meter as well as FDFM and PIG calculations. These two calculations are specific to Wildland Firefighters. There are two main categories of Kestrel Meters. The first being the Basic Meters and the second being the Advanced Meters. All Meters from the 1000 to the 3550 are considered basic. This doesn't mean they are cheaply made. On the contrary, they are just as durable, waterproof and drop proof as the Advanced Meters and use the same sensors.
