anemometer recommendation?

[kjeff91]

Got a gift card for Amazon and would like an anemometer so I can plug data into an app for a firing solution. Curious which ones you guys might recommend to use for that right now. I see a bunch around $15-$40 and not sure what I'm looking at in them. Just don't have the funds for a nice Kestrel right now.

Also I'm using 4DoF as my app. Is there another one that might work better for manual input of data?

Thanks!

Probably the cheapest one that will connect to 4DoF. They can be super fussy doing so and keeping connected.

Saving for a Kestrel is the best advice.

If not for the Amazon limitation I'd say install Ventusky on your phone and pay the $11 a year for the Premium layers.
