Pros: Good sizeNice little screen with blue backlitCan measure to 0.1gComes with a pouch
Cons: Maybe feels a bit light/cheapUses AAA batteries.
Other Thoughts: Overall a very nice little package. I was expecting much worse so Im very happy with it. Not too sure how accurate it is so far. Did a couple measurements and it seemed ok - will need to test it more.
Bottomline: Definitely recommend to anyone look for a portable digital scale. Im thinking of buying a couple more to leave around, Comes in handy as sometimes I need to weigh light objects.
Pros: Small size, back-lit screen (huge plus in my dark low-energy house), seems accurate, fast boot-up, steady measurement in seconds. Uses AAA batteries = easy to find, rather than button cells.
Cons: not really a con: I was expecting .01 grams, or at least .05 gram accuracy, but .1 grams is okay. (I read .01 oz, my bad, )
Other Thoughts: Although I don't have a good way to test other than using measured water (ml=grams) it seems reasonably accurate. Great for calculating value on minted/bullion coins for me.
Bottomline: If you need an inexpensive, somewhat rugged, convenient scale, get it. If you don't need a scale, get it anyway, you never know :D Very small and fits in a drawer out of the way until needed.
Pros: I use this for accurate measurement of tea anf mae use of the tare function all the time. It is accurate and fast. The 2 second start up using decent alkaline batteries is more than acceptable. Easy to read LCD figures in normal light make this little scale a true pleasure to use.
Cons: Inside the cover, yje instructions say wait fior 5 minutes for the display to settle instead of 5 seconds. No cons on anything that matters.
Other Thoughts: Great little scale for those who need 0.1 gram accuracy. Price includes shipping and represents a real bargain and has led to many more purchases from DX. Great value, good delivery time and service.
Bottomline: Go for it!
Pros: Higher build quality than I expected, to be honest. For what I'm looking for, which is something small that doesn't take up too much room when I'm not using it but is handy and easy to use when I need to check the weight of something before mailing it, this is perfect.
Cons: It doesn't retain a non-zero tare setting between power cycles; technically this is a good thing in that it means you never assume a tare, but it also means a couple more steps at the start of every session if you normally use the same container to hold things to be measured. As well, the 'manual' doesn't seem to mention what the sixth unit of measure is (GN).
Other Thoughts: It's more a problem of the exchange rate between my currency (Cdn) and the USD, but this would be a sweet buy if the price were a bit lower.
Bottomline: Still a great buy, even if you only plan on using it periodically like I do.
