        Comments about Nielsen-Kellerman Kestrel 1000 Pocket Anemometer - Wind Meter:

        I tested it against an ospray wind turbine designed to start at 1.8 mph. Once the wind speed hit 1.8 as indicated by the kestrel, the turbine blades started spinning. I was impressed by the accuracy of both products.

        I still think the Kestrel is somewhat pricey.

          I have found this to be very handy in balancing the damper settings in my home HVAC system. It also helped me to verify the airflow from a bathroom vent fan when I questioned its capacity.

          The Kestrel 1000 has helped find ducts that were crushed, not connected to the supply regeisters, etc. Often insulation in the attic hids duct to register connections (especially in new houses. ). The Kestrel will help find this issue
