<p>[QUOTE="red_spork, post: 2745774, member: 74282"]I also use the one TIF linked and it works great and the battery lasts forever(I've never changed it). If you ever start collecting huge aes grave or you want to weigh out bags of bullion you'll want a bigger scale but you can find plenty in the same price range.</p><p><br /></p><p>The thing to keep in mind is that there really is no one scale that works for all sizes equally well. The first scale I purchased was one that advertised 1000g maximum with .01g resolution - it weighs both small coins and large drone parts equally bad with as much as +- 10g on the end closer to 1000g and +-.5g on the end closer to 0g and neither is acceptable for what I'm doing. I ended up throwing it out and buying the small scale above for weighing out coins and small components and a larger scale with 1g resolution for weighing out entire drones that I build as well as larger components and both are accurate enough for what I bought them for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
