GM8908 LCD Digital Wind Speed Temperature Measure Gauge Anemometer Review
PROS: +low cost +cloudy days easy to read LCD. CONS: -propeller will stop at low wind speed. -must be aimed at wind direction. -screen often difficult to read without back light -at least 3mph wind needed for first readout. * * I wish the back light would stay on some +0.5 seconds longer to have more time to get the readout. The propeller has 'friction' caused by the DC motor / generator magnetic cogging effect. If the wind drops below minimum the propeller will stop. In AVG/Current mode: there will be a bogus wind speed readout like 12.8 mph when the propeller is stalled. The readout randomly jumps wildly up and down after propeller has stopped, as hand movements make the propeller move minute fractions of a full turn. The readout becomes valid when the propeller begins to spin again. A bit of annoyance. I could not figure out how to make MAX mode work. The random jump up after stopped propeller will always exceed the true wind speed. Could not figure out how to reset MAX value. Could not find manual on internet.It would be great if there were some affordable mini cup anemometers out there. The GM8908 meter must be turned into the prevalent wind direction, and must check if propeller is still spinning before accepting readout. I found omnidirectional Windtronic2 product, but unfortunately it was relatively expensive at $99. I would probably been better off with cups + dc motor on a stick + wired to analog voltmeter design for kiting purposes. Anyways: silk paper ribbons helps me finding the direction where to point the meter at.
