What’s new with the Kestrel 5000 over the Kestrel 4000 it replaced:

 As for weather reading features, they will be the same.  You won’t get a ‘better’ temperature reading, wind reading, etc, or even more readings than available on the 4000… still the same quality USA made meter backed by a 5 year warranty.  There are some advantages to the new 5000 that may or may not effect you.  

·                            Bluetooth LINK work with PC/Mac via Dongle. 

·                            Bluetooth LINK to Smartphones / Mobile / Android / IOS

·                            Takes 1 AA battery (instead of 2 AAA)

·                            Battery door is in the back, sealed away from the motherboard, should your battery leak as was common with all the 4000    series.  All 5000 battery doors are the same and interchangeable.

·                            Slightly larger and improved higher contrast / resolution screen for any lighting (even sunlight) and easy on your eyes.

·                            Intuitive user-interface screen navigation

·                            Multiple Languages (English, French, German, Spanish)

·                            Scratch and breakage-resistant window

·                            All meters include both options of Red (NV – Night Vision) & White backlights.

·                            Slightly bigger, more robust, though not really noticeable difference.

·                            Roughly 10,000 data points.  4000 series all had under 5000 data points.
