Questions & Answers

Is there a bracket included in the box?

No, it's just the meter.

Is it necessary for the entire device to be in the airstream, or could a tube be attached to the entrance to obtain a (slightly reduced) remote reading?

The device has been calibrated to work without the use of any additional tubing on the air inlet. I don't believe it will work in the manner you describe.

Works

3/5

For quick reference, it is not very useful.

Wind meter that can be relied on

5/5

I'm not sure why the other reviewer claims that the meter isn't particularly useful for quick reference. There is a mounting bracket for this meter that I couldn't find on Amazon (but a quick Google search for Hall Wind Meter bracket will turn up a few options), which might be useful to the other reviewer. On my light sport aircraft, I have this meter mounted on the short arm meter bracket; It's also the only airspeed indicator I've got on my plane. The Hall Wind Meter does not require batteries and can be used whenever you need it. I had a digital wind speed meter with a sensitive impeller that I used to measure the winds on the ground before launching when I flew powered paragliders. The manufacturer of that digital meter advises against using it to measure constant wind speeds like the ones I encounter in flight. The last one I bought lasted me more than a dozen years before a minor crack appeared in the graduated tube, so I'm in the market for a new one right now.
