guesswork required to choose the right sensor combination. Cellular

Low-Cost Data Plan
Typically, weather stations can come with a hefty premium for
cellular data coverage, but the KestrelMet comes with first year FREE.
No hidden activation fees. After the first year, we offer a low-cost
data plan option – pay only $50 for the whole year!
SIM card comes activated for seamless connection to kestrelmet.net.
Reliable Cellular Coverage
Get ultra-reliable weather information, even in remote locations.
No need to worry about wifi reception. For professionals or anyone who
doesn’t want to deal with interruptions from spotty internet
connections, cellular offers the best solution for data reliability.
24-hour aspirated fan for Improved Accuracy
Solar radiation can cause measurement errors and reduce sensor
accuracy. Shielding over the air temperature and relative humidity
sensors and a 24-hour aspirated fan keep air moving constantly over the
sensors. This results in a significant improvement in measurement
accuracy versus passive-shielded weather stations with no aspiration
fan.
Multiple Mounting Options
You can choose between the Mono Mount Kit or the Tripod Mount Kit to
best fit your needs. Both options offer quick install and a secure
mounting system. The Mono Mount and can be used on a pitched or flat
roof as well as a vertical surface such as a gable end. While the Tripod
can be used on flat terrain, a flat roof, or on the ridge of a pitched
roof.
