Ambient Temperature - current, windchill, maximum, minimum, water (Xplorers 2, 3, 4)

Details:

WINDSPEED:


All Xplorers
Balanced impeller is integrated into wind meter
The impeller is magnetized, producing a magnetic field when rotating which is measured internally
Damage to the impeller is unlikely due to the small opening, but repair can be performed

TEMPERATURE:


Xplorers 2, 3, 4
Internal thermometer is attached to the stainless steel back
Temperature adjusts quickly, although drastic temperature changes may require several minutes for accuracy
Temperature is read quickly by touching the back to an object of the same temperature
Water temperature is read quickly by submerging the unit briefly

DIGITAL COMPASS:


Xplorer 3 and 4
Designed to be used in vertical position
Will display windspeed and compass simultaneously
Electronic calibration before use ensures absolute precision (easy process)
Calibration is essential for proper use
Accurate wind direction can be found in this way - we introduced this feature in 2004.
