http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.29183 Works great for all the Foamies we have built. Be advised. Dealxtream is nasty with shipping delays, specially now in the Christmas season. Title: Re: Weighing Scale, which? where? Post by: atul_pg on December 01, 2010, 11:57:41 PM Hi Amit/Ujjwaana,

Thanks for the help guys. Title: Re: Weighing Scale, which? where? Post by: rohitgupta322 on December 02, 2010, 09:15:38 AM Another with 10mg resolution and upto 200 gm. This will only be useful for micro planes. So, in my opinion getting a weighing scale with a higher capacity in terms of the upper weight limit would be more favorable like the electronic scale used commonly in grocery shops.Title: Re: Weighing Scale, which? where? Post by: sandeepm on December 02, 2010, 09:22:59 AM I saw one weighing scale which can weight human body in a local shopping mall "Hyper City" and "Big Bazaar" the cost was Rs:1250/-
there was one LCD screen and weight base was of Glass.

Post by: findvikas on December 02, 2010, 09:31:09 AM As the MAX weight range increase their accuracy decrease and normal scale which has range of 0-120-150kg they have accuracy of +/- 2kg which is a lot for small foamy :)
Title: Re: Weighing Scale, which? where? Post by: sandeepm on December 02, 2010, 10:15:38 AM there are many more available on Ebay.in with max 5KG capacity and is known as Digital Kitchen Scale, price approx 500 + shipping

Post by: saurabhhsrivastavaa on December 02, 2010, 12:43:01 PM Hi,
I bought this... http://cgi.ebay.in/5-KG-DIGITAL-KITCHEN-WEIGHING-SCALE-TOUCH-BUTTON-/310274311300?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item483dca4484 Just amazing. The accuracy is too good and least count is 1g. Look and feel of the scale is awesome. Comes with backlight and feather touch controls. Title: Re: Weighing Scale, which? where? Post by: SunLikeStar on December 02, 2010, 12:47:51 PM what type of battery does it use??
Title: Re: Weighing Scale, which? where? Post by: saurabhhsrivastavaa on December 02, 2010, 01:04:05 PM CR2032 or 2016 either one of these
Title: Re: Weighing Scale, which? where? Post by: ujjwaana on December 02, 2010, 01:38:50 PM It would be wiser to buy form E-bay India. It looks perfectly fine.
Kalyan/Sandeep, the health/Fitness weighing machine have a capacity of 200kg and a poor resolution of 500g/1KG. For For foamies and smaller Balsa models, you need a resolution of 1gram. even a 20g Resolution is no good. the 1KG/0.1g resolution 'Jweller's' scale is useful for micro planes as larger fomies/SPADS tend to have a AUW of 1Kg or more. nevertheless 0.1g resolution is seldom required.

Title: Re: Weighing Scale, which? where? Post by: punty on March 05, 2013, 01:36:01 PM @ romanxdsouza
these are mainly used by jewellers and other craftsmen. Would suggest to please check for the max weight it can handle. As I really doubt it will be able to function properly with 500 gram plus weight. regards punty Title: Re: Weighing Scale, which? where? Post by: girishsarwal on March 05, 2013, 01:39:44 PM Roman, you should look at the resolution and the max weighing capacity of the scale when buying one. If you're buying it for rc purposes (which I am sure is the intent), coro builds will easily go beyond 1 kg as you do bigger models, so I feel getting something that can weigh atleast 2 kg or so would be a good choice (although you can easily weigh items individually and add the results - but then ther is glue and zip ties and other times that get easily missed) and regarding the resolution, the smaller the better. The item you've mentioned seems to be a jeweller's scale and somebody's got to be filthy rich to have 2 kg gold weighed at a go ;). Hope that helps
Title: Re: Weighing Scale, which? where? Post by: romanxdsouza on March 05, 2013, 02:13:02 PM k girish got u thanks i will look for something that can weigh atleast 2 kg or so here in mumbai
