We have both Android and iPhone integration through Kestrel LiNK iOS and Android Apps enabling Kestrel 5 Series Meters to connect wirelessly to view real-time measurements, receive on-screen alerts, download data and perform firmware updates. **Q: How can I transfer data to my unit if I do not have the LiNK (i.e., Bluetooth) model?** A: The Kestrel 5 series have optical data ports that can be seen through the openings of the battery door. A USB Transfer Cable can be purchased separately, which plugs directly into the back of the Kestrel and extends to a USB port in your computer. **Q: What types of batteries should I use with my Kestrel 5 series unit?** A: NK strongly recommends continual use of Lithium AA batteries in your Kestrel. Lithium batteries respond best in extreme temperatures and help prevent against any corrosion. **Q: What can I do with LiNK for WINDOWS/iOS/OSX/ANDROID?** A: These programs handle uploading the weather data from the Kestrel to a specific device. This weather data can then be exported into MS Excel. You can also update your firmware any of these programs. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not possible to be updated - returned for replacement *by J***. on 18 January 2026* Bought this off Amazon cause it had pretty good reviews and needed some for work. The product could not be updated. I bought another one and its on its way hopefully a better version ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Muy bueno para la sensación termica real *by J***6 on 27 September 2019* Me ha gustado todo el aparato y menos el precio que en algún otro sitio es mas barato. ### ⭐⭐ Bluetooth Does Not Work With Microsoft Windows *by A***R on 13 January 2023* I guess I have to blame myself, but although I did a fair amount of research on this unit, including going to the manufacturers website, it will not work with Microsoft Windows without purchasing a separate USB Bluetooth dongle. OK, so I screwed up and didn't realize I would have to order the extra Bluetooth dongle. So, I go ahead and order the $30 Bluetooth dongle and then find out it still doesn't work the way I thought it would with Microsoft Windows. All the Bluetooth dongle gets you is the ability to download logs or update the firmware. There is apparently no way to simply monitor the data stream from the device from a computer. The only way you can remotely monitor the data stream is through a phone (or I assume a tablet). I bought this very high-end $600+ bundle to monitor conditions at my jobsites. I wanted to be able to monitor this through my computer, so this is a big let down. I haven't put this unit to much actual use yet, but so far the altitude fuction seems totally worthless. I do not foresee a big need for me to ever use the altitude function, but it logs the altitude along with the rest of the available data in the data stream downloadable logs. So, even though I entered the very accurate reference altitude for my position as well as the very accurate barometric pressure, the altitude readings are way off, which when viewed in the downloadable logs makes one think all the rest of the data may be suspect. I'll come back and update this review after a few weeks of actually daily use when we get to the masonry part of my project, where Michigan OSHA regulations require me to monitor the windspeeds all day, every day. ## Frequently Bought Together - Kestrel 5400 Heat Stress Tracker, Orange - Kestrel Compact Collapsible Tripod - Rotating Vane Mount & Tactical MOLLE Carry Case, HST Series, Berry Compliant for Kestrel 5000 Series Tan --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/49428271-kestrel-5400-heat-stress-tracker-pro-with-link-compass-vane](https://www.desertcart.is/products/49428271-kestrel-5400-heat-stress-tracker-pro-with-link-compass-vane) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-07-23*
