5.0 out of 5 stars Solid, accurate... and not just for fish!, February 5, 2007

Here's a secret for the uninformed: This is a very popular scale with people who never weigh a single fish. This is perhaps the best inexpensive package scale you can get, and if you're a regular eBay seller, it's one of the best tools you cna buy for making accurate weighings for estimating shipping charges. With this scale and a plastic bag, you can weigh any package, no matter how irregularly shaped, and get a weight accurate within an ounce or two. But remember- it's a secret!

3.0 out of 5 stars Stock up on CR2032 batteries..., May 18, 2009

Yes, it's inexpensive and accurate, but the batteries don't last long.
Even during periods of non-use, the batteries seem to drain.
I blame the designer for using CR2032 batteries (typically $3-$10 each), vs., for example, AA batteries, which cost about 50 cents in small quantities. AA batteries typically have 10 times the life of CR2032s. (CR2032s usually are rated around 220 mAh, while alkaline AAs are often over 2500 mAh.)

So it's a nice scale, but don't leave it in your tackle box for a few months and expect it to work. Keep some extra CR2032s handy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exellent tool for international traveller, July 4, 2008

I bought this scale to weight my suitcases before I travel. I always travel with maximum weight allowed, this lets me pack my suitcases to the maximum weight allowed in peace and quite at home. Prior to this I would use a personal scale, which was not very accurate, and often I would have to repack my suitcase at the airport, which was rather inconvenient. This is little marvel.
