Sense the Wind
B&G has launched a new line of wind sensors, including the WS320, a wireless system that is suitable for masts up to 80ft. Wireless wind sensor technology has been hit-and-miss, with some users reporting intermittent signal failure on tall rigs, but B&G, citing 200,000 trouble-free hours of testing, claims to have overcome those problems. The lightweight unit incorporates solar panels and is easily installed as a retrofit or by an OEM. $599 WS320 sensor only, $699 package. B&G, bandg.com
