The Minox Wind Watch Pro II does all this and more. The basic features of the Wind Watch Pro II are a wind meter which measures wind speed in mph, km/h, knots and m/s and a thermometer measuring in Celsius or Fahrenheit. The wind speed measurement is precise to 0.1m/s and up to a maximum speed of 40 m/s while the temperature range is from -20 to 55°C. A combination of these 2 measurements gives the user a reading for the effect of "wind-chill".
A barometer and altimeter takes the technology of the Wind Watch Pro II one step further and enables the user to find out air pressure over the past 16 hours and their height above sea level. The air pressure is measured in millibars / kPa or in/Hg and the altitude in meters or feet.
Finally, knowing when it may rain can be a valuable asset in decision making while climbing, hiking or bike riding. The built-in humidity sensor determines dew point (condensation of humidity) which is a very accurate indicator of when rain, haze or fog is imminent.
