Lab Scale 5000gx0.01g Precision Scale 0.01g Accuracy Laboratory Digital Analytical Balance Jewelry Gram Pharmacy LCD Display(No Test Weight)

Buena

Great accurate

Seems to be working great with good calibration or only .01 gram off.

The media could not be loaded. Parece que tiene baterías pero no carga, me gustaría saber si se puede trabajar con solo un decimal en los gramos en vez de dos

I took the closest thing I could find that had a known weight, a bottle of Dr. Pepper. I took an empty bottle did the tare and then put a full bottle. Got 518.36g which I'm told should be between 518 and 519 based on the sugar content. I then did the same experiment with Dr. Pepper Zero and got 498.11g. Expectation is 499g as it should be the same density as water. Both measurements were within 0.2% of expectation but sodas themselves have an allowed tolerance of 2% from the stated amount. So anything within 10g of these numbers should be considered valid for that reason and the numbers were basically spot on.

This scale should be taken off the market. It isn't accurate, & it doesn't calibrate.

I got this scale for household use, but it's a highly accurate instrument that can be used in a lab / jeweler environment. The scale is very solid and seems well built. I was surprised by the overall weight of it. It has rubber feet so it doesn't slide around the table. The feet are also adjustable to ensure a level weighing surface. The buttons are very firm, so you won't be hitting them by accident.It features easy to use tare function which allows you to zero out the weight of a container so you can measure only the weight of its contents. It also has a count feature which lets you set the weight of a specific quantity of items, then it will calculate how many items are on the scale based on total weight. It has 19 different measurement units, most of which I've never seen before, but it's nice to know they're there if I need them.For kitchen use, this scale is good for portioning out food to mixing precise ratios of ingredients. It's great if you're maintaining a strict diet and need to be super accurate with your macros. Also good if you have a chubby cat and you're trying to help him lose weight.One thing I noticed is that when you plug it in, a "battery" symbol blinks. I have no idea what's that for as it is not a cordless. If I had to guess it's an indicator for an internal battery for memory functions. However, the included instructions make no mention of the battery, the indicator on the screen, or memory features.

The most impressive feature of this balance is how sensitive it is. At .01g resolution, you can wave your hand over it and measure the force of the air current you generate. This unit is overkill for use as a kitchen scale because you just don't need this level of precision for figuring out your sourdough hydration. Also if you need to change units, it's kind of tedious because there are so many units to cycle through. And going along with that is the documentation which is somewhat lacking, although there isn't that much to know - on/off and tare are what you're doing the most and those are single buttons. I don't have a proper standard to calibrate against but I can only say that out of this box, this balance agrees exactly with my existing scale. I figure it is unlikely they are both wrong by exactly the same amount; more likely that they are both accurate. I consider this balance a good value for this level of precision.
