This is a fantastic weather and ballistics meter. The readings are more accurate than some other weather and ballistics application I have used. I highly recommend the Kestrel 5700 with LiNK.

If I could I would award 4.5 points, but since that is not possible I decided in favor of the unit and gave 5 points. The materials used could (and should) be more sturdy. The cover of the battery compartment is creaking all the time. Not nice! The Kestrel 5700 is the unit you should buy if you want to pair it with a laser rangefinder (check thoroughly for compatibility) and a rifle scope capable of producing a holdover point derived from the data gathered by the entire setup. If you want to go 'ELITE' simply purchase a software update for 300$ and all of a sudden all the features that you might have (not) missed are there. I continue using the 5700 in its 'basic' version which allows calculations up to 4000 yards. All other features the 'elite' version offers are outsourced to apps on my smartphone. Regards

The Kestrel was good quality, delivery was in time as told before and the price was ok.

Really good tool, despite the weather and temperature, this gives an accurate estimate of approx. I get this just to predict the vertical disintegration caused by the summer and winter seasons and I mostly use a small rifle when shooting long distances. When you see the exact temperature, you can also better predict the temperature of the powder and the change in the output speed caused by it (per powder) can also be entered into the parameters via a mobile phone or PC.
The battery (AAA) in the device lasts and lasts, even if the device is pretty bad at predicting the amount of charge remaining (always about 40-100%), partly due to the characteristics of the Lithium battery, when the voltage only drops really last 20%.
I figured out, and I don't need a Bluetooth dongle if I can find Bluetooth LE under Bluetooth in Device Manager. There is no real reason to connect to a computer. It is easy to set the values in place via the mobile phone.
You should get this if you are unsure, you can later buy Elite firmis through Kestrel's website.
If the price were taken, it would be 4 stars. But the device has so much high quality sensors and ballistics that the price really matches the device. A cheaper option is the newly released Kestrel Hornady, which, however, cannot be upgraded to the Elite version.
