New Scale Recommendations.

[Major Sights]

Looking for a new scale that won't break the bank, however if it has the right features or outstanding reliability I don't mind bending the budget.


I have a GemPro 250, but has been acting up. Rather disappointing considering how well I treated it and how little it was used. It started wandering something fierce, 15-30gn at a time!

My requirements are:
Digital
Don't require me to sell my body on the streets to pay for it (that may take a while....)
have a resolution of at least .05gn

Following this thread for interest, I’m in the market as well and have the same parameters

It a high precision milligram scale - the one I have measures to the 0.01 grain

And you believe those claim of accuracy? a 30$ scale from china? It might have a 0.01gr resolution but the accuracy and repetability won’t be there.

Either look for a Chargemaster or a FX120i depending if you want +-0.05-0.1gr vs 0.02gr accuracy.

I use a Lyman Micro-Touch 1500 compact electronic scale. I like it, and have had no problems with it. Works with 3 AAA batteries or AC adapter.
