A Kestrel DROP is the world’s easiest-to-use rugged environmental data logger. Available in three models – the Kestrel DROP D1 Temperature Logger, the Kestrel DROP D2 Temperature and Humidity Logger, and the Kestrel DROP D3 Temperature, Humidity and Pressure Logger – all three models allow you to monitor and record the conditions of any environment and easily access and chart real-time and historical data on your phone, tablet or other smart device.
The Kestrel DROP D2 data logger can be placed wherever needed to log temperature and humidity with the data logs retrieved wirelessly and automatically to the Kestrel LiNK app when within wireless range(up to 100’ or more line of sight).
Use a DROP Anywhere - Small, Accurate, Rugged and Waterproof
Each DROP measures just 1 x 1.8 x 2.4 inches (24 x 46 mm x 60 mm) and weighs just 1.2 ounces (34 grams). DROP loggers meet military and international standards for water, dust and shock resistance (IP-67 and MIL-STD-810G) and are conveniently equipped with a sturdy d-ring for hanging wherever needed.
DROPs Are Powered by the Kestrel LiNK App
DOWNLOAD KESTREL LiNK FOR ANDROID
Kestrel LiNK is the free app that powers the DROP loggers. With Kestrel LiNK on your smart phone or tablet, you can view real-time readings from any DROP logger within wireless range (up to 100’ or more line of sight) via Bluetooth Low Energy. Each phone or tablet can connect to up to 8 DROP loggers at the same time and store data logs from many more. Min/Max/Average readings are clearly displayed and the data log is viewable as a scrolling graph with detailed data for each logged point. The Kestrel LiNK app also allows adjustment of the logging interval and other settings as well as real-time threshold alerts. Readings can be updated as frequently as every 2 seconds and logging time and date are automatically updated whenever connected to your smart device. You can also send and share real-time and logged environmental data via email, Facebook or Twitter

DROP Customer Feedback:
The Kestrel DROP D2 and D3 are absolutely the best kept secret in the cigar industry! In the high tech world we live in, I am now able to keep a vigilant eye over my investment by remotely monitoring the environmentals of my humidor via a simple app on my iPhone. Having the ability to set alerts when humidity and temperature drop or go above ideal conditions is invaluable. This is a MUST HAVE accessory for anyone with a humidor!

Kestrel LiNK Devices on Ambient Weather Network

Kestrel LiNK devices, including the Kestrel 5000 series meters and Kestrel DROP data loggers, can now connect to the cloud-based Ambient Weather Network (AWN) platform for extended remote monitoring capabilities.*
You can set up your Kestrel device at any desired location that has an internet connection and then view the onsite conditions from wherever you are -- on the AWN app or AmbientWeather.net. You do not have to be onsite to remain in the know about your weather conditions.

*The Kestrel LiNK device data transfer to the AWN cloud platform functionality is specific to Android devices, as the integration with AWN and the transmission of data via the LiNK app relies on the Android platform's capabilities. The Android device must be within Bluetooth range and connected to the internet in order to transmit data from the Kestrel device to the AWN cloud platform. This allows for real-time monitoring and data analysis from virtually anywhere.
