Kestrel 4500 NV -- How Do I Know If It Is WITH or WITHOUT Bluetooth?

[JungleShooter]

Looking at a used Kestrel "4500 NV Pocket Weather Tracker" --
How do I know if it is with or without Bluetooth?

I thought there is a little Bluetooth symbol on the top left of the screen.
—> But the Kestrel I'm looking at does not have it.

Can you confirm if there are Bluetooth 4500 NV that do NOT have that symbol?


Thanks for your help! ?

I believe that the Bluetooth models have the word "LINK" in the bottom rgt corner of the unit?

Yeah, that's the new line, the 5000 models with a "LINK" button.
The 4500 models don't have this LINK button.

I have a 4500NV for sale on the hide. It does have BT and has the symbol. No ballistics solver. PM me if you are interested.

On the face of the 4500 you will see the Bluetooth logo on top left (see unit on right) of picture. Also not it is regular Bluetooth not the LE version used today. It is limited to Android devices and the NVista app. See here

Ah, the Kestrel manufacturer himself is helping me with Kestrel question — how cool is that?! Meaning, now I got an answer at the 100% certainty level. That doesn't happen very often! THANKS!!
A company with that kind of support is awesome.
