Review on Inspeed Anemometer: Enhanced Pole Mount for Superior Performance by David Romo

This anemometer is attached to the handle of an old broom so I can take readings above ground level. The Connecticut coast gets gusty winds in the winter, so I attach an anemometer to a pole with a clothesline attached and run a 25-foot cable through the window while the bike reader hangs from the window latch. choice, get a 50 foot cable. It offers more utility and if you have a chimney or stove chimney that's where you'll get the most accurate readings. I would have liked a longer cable. When it's windy outside, there's a lot of noise: trees bend and squeak, branches sway, leaves rustle, doors open and slam, and the sound of the wind blowing past buildings is unavoidable. If you stand directly below, next to or above the anemometer, the noise made by the device itself can be heard. It's not annoying; It's reassuring to know it works and I find it enjoyable. The best use for this is insurance claims after storms. When Hurricane Sandy hit southern Connecticut in 2012, I wished I had bought one to measure the actual wind speed my home was experiencing. Then I would know at what speed (actually measured in my area) my neighbor's roof blew off or a 200 foot tree was uprooted and fell 3 meters. an outside alarm when the wind speed approaches that speed (sold separately), with a sign on the house wall letting neighbors know what the alarm means (some may mistake it for a fire alarm and call the fire department). product, it is portable, has many uses and extreme weather fun! If you can measure the weather, you can enjoy it more!
