SKYWATCH BT WEATHER STATION FOR SMARTPHONE

The Skywatch BL500 is a complete weather station that connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth wireless technology. It allows you to accurately measure wind speed, temperature, humidity, air pressure and UV index. The measurement results can be shared on popular social media sites.

Skywatch BL500 is specially designed for various outdoor activities such as sailing, kite surfing, paragliding, hiking, etc. It is also a handy tool for agriculture and construction sites, etc.

• Wind speed – wind direction
• Temperature – wind chill, heat index
• Humidity – dew point
• Air pressure – height above sea level – QNH
• UV index
The measured data can be saved and shared on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.
The user manual and YKK questions and answers are available on the website at bl.skywatch.ch/support.
