You'll get all the features and benefits of the lightweight waterless 5500 Meter with a few added benefits for $10 more.

Advantage over the Kestrel 3000 & Kestrel 3500FW models: You won't need to calibrate this meter! Kestrel AU will stand by this and other 5000 series models to hold calibration within drift for 5 years.  Kestrel AU will repair, recalibrate or replace any defective product within the warranty period.  “Defective” includes measurements outside of our accuracy spec plus stated drift.
