The Kestrel 2500 weight is stated as 102g. Does that weight include or exclude batteries.

I have a 2500 serial no. XXXXXXX. The wind fan is broken. Can it be replaced? Could I get the part and replace it myself? How much for the part if so. I don\'t know how long I\'ve had it but am doubtful that it is still under warranty. It was not dropped, but the fan just came apart.
I have good news for you! If your meter looks like models we have on our site, the impeller is replaceable. The entire black section can push out and a new one pushed in. You can find the impellers here: Kestrel user replaceable impeller.

Does the 2500 record min max temperatures like the 2000 does?
Both the 2000 and 2500 record max and average wind speed and wind chill but not min, max, temperature. For that, you would need a Kestrel 5 series weather meter.

I am looking to get a somewhat accurate barometer to read pressure and was wondering about the Kestrel 2500, what units will it display for pressure and temperature, and how accurate are they?

I'm looking for an instrument that will give a ten minute wind speed average. Will this model ( Kestrel 2500 ) do that? if so what is the process to get it on and from the instrument?
The 2500 will record the average wind speed for as long as it is on. When you turn it on, it will start recording the average wind speed. It will report it on the screen. If you want something to actually record, log and be downloadable, check out the Kestrel 5000 or Kestrel 5500 weather meters. Both store data which can be downloaded either wirelessly (LiNK enabled models only) using the Kestrel smartphone LiNK app or with the help of the Kestrel USB Data Transfer Cable to a PC or MAC.

Hi, I was interested in finding out more information about your Kestrel 2500 weather meter, specifically the units and accuracy of the barometric pressure that it displays, can I change the units of the barometric pressure? Also does it measure air temperature? How accurate is it?
The 2500 as all Kestrel Meters are extremely accurate. There are no cheap sensors used in a Kestrel. The pressure units which can be changed are inHg, hPA and mb. They are made right here in Pennsylvania, are waterproof and float. They are meet mil drop test standards. The 2500 measures Wind speed, Temperature and pressure.

I'm need a NIST certified wind speed sensor - the Kestrel 2500 looks perfect (the additional sensors might be useful to us.) What is the lead time with the calibration?
You would need to purchase the meter and NIST calibration at the same time. The lead time for calibration is anywhere between 5-7 business days.

what is the size and weight of the Kestrel 2500 Handheld Weather meter?
Are batteries included in the Kestrel 2500 Handheld Weather meter?
Hi! The Kestrel 2500 weighs in just under 4 ounces. This includes the lanyard, slide on case and meter itself. It is 1" thick x 2-7/8" wide x 5" long (inches). Dimensions are of the meter inside slip-on case. The case is not much larger than the meter itself though. The Kestrel 2500 uses one CR2032 lithium battery. One battery is included inside the meter. Thanks!
