Title: Best Choices and Sources for Multi Measurement Digital Scales?
Post by: ballen28115 on March 08, 2010, 03:34:00 PM
I'm looking to buy a digital scale that'll pull multiple duties.  Obviously, I need something for arrows and tips and the like in grains measurment.  Them I'd like to be able to meagure grams, because as long as I have Cub Scouts, I'll be weighing Pinewood Derby cars.  Ounces for postage.  Does such a scale exist at a reasonable price?  Thanks!

been happy with mine from KustomKing.  Not sure what weight range you may need though....

made under the name:  US Balance

US-Thunder-Pro
500g x 0.1g

this one goes to 500 grams, and measures in g, oz, gn & dwt.

runs on 2 AAA batteries

I bought the same one as Bob from Kustom King a few years ago. It works very well, and if I recall, only cost around $20.

I've bought two over the years that have served me well from Chuck at Two Tracks.

Give him a call and see if he has any.

Picked up a nice on off the auction site- lots of choice there, but type in 'jewllery scale' if you want it for archery, otherwise you'll not get grains.

Be sure to check your scale against the "official"scale that will be used at the big event.As picky as we are about our equipment,we've got nothing on scout parents on derby night   :biglaugh:
