ATTN: Prescion scale (.001g) owners
    #10235278 - 04/26/09 07:49 AM (14 years, 10 months ago)

I made a few posts in an ODD thread pertaining to higher end scales and I have a few questions.  first off, does anyone have any first hand experience with the cheap, 20-50$ .001g scales on ebay?  the the sellers I've looked at are power sellers with extremely positive reviews on the scales.  I am looking for something that I can measure 25mg out with, and know that if it's off, only within 5mg or so.

would it be worth my money to go ahead and drop a few bills (really this is a last resort and not possible atm) or would one of these scales work accurately enough for what I want?  Like I said, if some of the weights I get end up 19-20mg or 25-30mg, that is fine.  but I don't want some doses to be 10mg, while others are 60.

my question is:  how good are those cheap "diamond," scales on ebay?  like I said, I haven't really found a negative review for any of them and I am in dire need of a real scale pretty soon.  i'm actually looking to put an order in for one today or tomorrow.

anyone who can offer any insight, or any specific brand/scale please feel free to chime in.  I really have no specific price range, but if it would be between 50-100$(preferably on the lower side of that range) that would work perfect.  and like I said, it doesn't have to be ENTIRELY accurate.  i'm not trying to measure out LSD crystals or DOC or any drug that is extremely dose dependent, I just want something much more accurate than my eyeball.

again, thanks for any help from anyone.

No specific knowledge- but electronics get both better and cheaper all the time. It totally wouldn't surprise me if you can get the scale you are talking about for $50. If the seller has good FB, I'd go for it.

(I got a little 0.1 gram scale for $10, works great.)

You make it all possible. Doesn't it feel good?

Yeah, I kind of agree.  I just want some first hand experiences.  I posted this on a couple communities I attend so maybe someone will have some first hand knowledge on these cheaper scales.

I got a nima.. or maybe it was a nema...

its very accurate but sucks to use.. some times its dead on, others it doesnt register the weight at all.

You get what you pay for. that my view on them.

With scales that precise (.001g) you pretty much get what you pay for, I say either get a nice lab quality scale, or if you are using something orally, just dissolve it and dose by volume instead of mass :shrug:

Just add up some mg if its at .000 then lay down something to see if the - number goes up...calibrate though to get a good idea on the scales effeciency.

i've talked to a few people who actually own the scale I was looking at and said that if calibrated before each use session, they are pretty accurate for the price.  he said he trusts weighing out regular 2c-e so for what I need it for it will work just fine.

if not, I will save and get a lab quality scale.
