Overview

In 2000, we introduced the Kestrel 4000 Pocket Weather Tracker, and today it is still the most comprehensive pocket weather meter on the market. For just under 4 ounces, you get every environmental reading with the press of a single button. The 4000 is unparalleled in its ease of use and totally customizable navigation and data display. In addition to measuring the current conditions, it tracks and stores up to 2000 sets of data, and data can be uploaded to a PC with the optional Kestrel Interface.

Durable? You bet. The 4000 has been subjected to impact, water submersion and extreme temperature tests, and keeps on working. Kestrel 4000’s have been put to the test in some of the harshest conditions on the planet. U.S. Special Forces, combat weather teams, wildland firefighters, smoke jumpers, Mt. Everest expeditions and IRL pit crews are just a few who rely on a Kestrel 4000 to provide them with the crucial environmental data they need. Watch the Weather Channel during a hurricane, and you’re sure to spot a Kestrel 4000 being wielded by an intrepid on-screen meteorologist.

Due to popular demand in a range of applications, the Kestrel 4000 is available in Gray, Olive Drab, and Safety Orange.

Available in the NV Configuration

Military personnel and pilots flying in darkness are often concerned with preserving their night vision. Due to overwhelming demand from our military customers, the Kestrel NV line was added in 2005.

The Kestrel 4000NV is available with an Olive Drab case or a Desert Tan case. The unit has a night-vision preserving backlight which helps users to sustain natural night vision. The NV's backlight incorporates an optical filter to reduce overall brightness and minimize blue and green spectrum light to preserve night vision. Additionally, NV backlights are also much dimmer than a standard backlight, making it more difficult to detect with the naked eye in night operations. This backlight appears soft greyish pink, not red, and is still in the visible spectrum, so is not compatible with night-vision equipment.

It takes 30 to 45 minutes for the average eye to adapt to darkness and maximize night vision. Even a short burst of white, yellow, green or blue light “bleaches out” the rod cell photoreceptors in the eye and causes night blindness until the entire adaptation process can take place again. Light in the red spectrum does not cause this “bleaching out”, preventing night blindness and night vision fatigue.

A Fine Instrument June 14, 2008
Reviewer: C. F. MacGuyer "dakine audiophile" from RI, USA  
This is the second Kestrel 4000 I've purchased. My brother, who is 4000 miles away in HI has has my first. I'll never see IT again (orange) Anyway, this unit is outstanding. Very accurate and provides you with all the air information except the direction it's coming from. Hopefully you will know that as forecasting depends on direction too. I feel the most outstanding feature on the 4000 is the recording ability of this unit. The barometric pressure can (user adjustable) be recorded in time intervals. You don't have to be outside in bad weather. I believe it can hold several hundred readings then stop or write over the earliest. Date and time are recorded as well. Reviewing the recorded graph, gives you a mental picture of a front approaching and passing through an area. You can sort of relive the big wind, lightning, and rain just before the storm! There are a lot of user defined parameters on the 4000. Its not hard to adjust, and can be changed according to what you need to know. There is back light for night operation, but you need to be familiar with the button placement as they don't light up. If you are a weatherwise person, as most are otherwise(Ben Franklin), you will enjoy this marvel of technology for years. It is well made, and supported. It is not inexpensive, but precision instruments never are, and as such should be treated with care and attention. (don't leave it near your brother)
