    Recommendations for a new charging scale



    Both of my yellow jacket's are now approaching a decade it would seem, and there starting to lose it sadly!
    Anyone have any good recommendations for a decently low price charging scale?

    Re: Recommendations for a new charging scale

    In my opinion you can't go wrong with charging scales by ITE (they are blue and have penguins where the buttons are) they were my college's choice and i now own mine
    easy to use and accurate
    55kg capacity version MODEL WS-055 accurate to 2g
    I think they do a 120kg version accurate to 10g
    9v alkaline battery powered and can also get dc adapter (at least on 55 model)
    don't know prices but you can sometimes find them second hand on EBay but they're not expensive new
    if they were my penny-pinching bosses wouldn't have bought one
    they have a spirit level incorporated and adjustable feet
    prove to be very accurate and reliable
    hope that helps

    i recommend two sets the refco's set (top) lightweight and come in a carry case but cant fit a 50kg bottle on that well,i got mine from RPW at a very good price as they where on offer at the time

    the ITE set (bottom) are a more robust and hold a 50KG bottle no probs but are quite large,i got mine from climate center and where well priced

    works a treat and have had no problems.
