Seller provides excellent support. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice compact package, every Weather related reading I could want or need in the field *by G***S on 22 October 2020* I am a weather geek, I like tracking weather patterns and the Kestrel 5500 give me all of the data I would ever need in a small compact package. The included vane and travel pouch is perfect for backpacking and mobile applications. I did set up the Kestrel iPhone software and the software is terrible, the GUI is a joke and pretty much unusable on the iPhone, on the iPad the vertical orientation requires me to remove the iPad from my keyboard / stand. The bluetooth connection eats batteries (lithium) and consistently disconnects from the iPhone. If I were to buy again I would not but the Link version and save myself the aggravation and money. Overall this is a good solid product that is well made and looks to be capable of field use. I am impressed with the device operation and features as well as battery life after turning off bluetooth. Disappointed in the remote display ability and app which is why I deducted one star. As an added note if you buy the kit with the vane there is no reason to buy the worthless clamp that Kestrel sells for tripod mounting. The clamp dose not hold the 5500 securely, the cradle portion of the vane can be mounted on a tripod with no modifications. ## Frequently Bought Together - Kestrel 5500 Weather Meter with Link and Vane Mount, Tan - Kestrel Rotating Vane Mount & Carry Case 5000 Series Black - Kestrel Portable Tripod with Clamp Black, Small --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/432682370-5500-weather-meter-with-link-and-vane-mount-tan](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/432682370-5500-weather-meter-with-link-and-vane-mount-tan) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-05*
