Energized by two replaceable AA batteries, this Skywatch Meteos has an aluminium base with a thread that allows it to be mounted on a camera tripod.
Polyethylene protection means it is comfortable to hold and large display makes it easy to read.
The Wind Chill Factor is a calculation of the wind effect on temperature. The faster the wind blows, the faster the body loses heat. It is dangerous if your body loses too much heat. For example, a 0°C current temperature and a 30 km/h wind bring you a temperature of -13°C!!! At sea, in the mountain, or while you are trekking or biking, the SKYWATCH Meteos will instantly give you the real temperature felt by your body, and preserve you from frostbite and hypothermia.
Comes complete with a wind speed and temperature meter, including a calculation mode of the wind-chill factor (temperature felt when the wind is blowing). Used by fire fighters, farmers, scientists, watersports enthusiasts, etc.
