REG-250, 200g / 0.01g and 250g / 0.1g combined

Summary

Pocket balance (for a large pocket)

Model: REG-250  

Note, this has now been rebranded, OnBalance. The photo is correct except for the word PRAC-TEC, and it now comes a really posh zip-case which contains a calibration weight and USB cable.

Suitable for weighing very lightweight items such as gemstones (weighs down to 0.01g) AND gold (also weighs down to 0.1g) AND silver up to 250g = about 8oz). Weighs up to 200g in 0.01g increments, or up to 250g in 0.1g increments. Altogether the most 'flexible' balance and the best-designed.

Guarantee

1 year. This covers manufacturing faults only, it excludes normal wear and tear, bowls, trays, finishes, clasps, hinges, feet, AC adaptors and  batteries; it also excludes being overloaded / dropped (e.g. error messages EEE, 0-Ld, or OUEr). The guarantee is invalid if the scale shows signs of foreign material (e.g. residues of herbs, chemicals, corrosion, spilt tea).  

Inaccurate readings can be fixed by calibrating the scale, this is something that is very easy for you to do yourself with the 100g weight supplied. Giving inaccurate readings does not mean it is broken - all electronic measuring devices need calibrating every now and again, see calibrating weighing machines.
