Why do I see opposing answers as to whether this scale can weigh in Ounces? I need to be certain it weighs in ounces before I order.

I use it only for grams but it also has the scale for ounces but nevertheless 1 lb = 16 oz = 454 g 1 oz = 28.375 g. I don't have it here but I'll check it at home laterSincerely yoursReinaldo

28.35 grams=1 oz most lower weights are done in grams not ounces. 28.35 grams=1 oz 14.17 grams=.5oz 7.0874 grams=.25oz 3.4019 grams=.12ozI won't know for sure until I get my scale and then I will update my answer, I just ordered it today.

This scale does NOT MEASURE OUNCES, regardless of what others have said (yes you can convert, but who wants to?). The ACP-500 will display in ounces but you lose a little accuracy. (ACP-200 is accurate to 0.02g or 0.000705479 ounces where the ACP-500 is accurate to 0.02g or 0.00705479 ounces) For most purposes (when measuring in ounces) accuracy to 7 1/1000ths of an ounces isn't bad, especially when it will only display to the nearest 1/100th of an ounce.

The display for oz gm ct etc. is difficult to see, it is on the right hand side of the screen, with poor contrast, and in a small typeface. To scroll through the options, you must push the M button briefly to see the next one.

It starts going into pounds after a point, but it does so in a "pounds and ounces" format rather than a decimal. So for example, if I put a 1.5 pound item on it, it will show up as 1 pound 8 ounces on the scale. From there it should be easy to do what you're trying to do, simply multiply the pound figure by 16 and add to the ounces, so in this case it would be 16 plus 8 = 24 ounces.

It weighs in kilograms or pounds. The only downside to this scale is the fact that it displays the weight in decimal form. Example: 1.5 pounds instead of 1 pound 8 ounces.

It scales in one tenth oz but also in whole grams. At 28 grams to the oz the conversion shouldn't be difficult. I often use the gram scale

The scale will weigh oz. and grams, but I don't see how it will weigh fractions of a gram..

No it dont weight in ounces. It weighs in kilo or pounds. and it does weigh more then just even. ex you dont getjust like 122 or 123 lbseven unless you are. you would get 122.2 or 145.6 depending on your weight.

yes you can set it to ounces, and it stays on its last setting when it shuts off. I haven't personally tried pushing it past 11 lbs which is the limit it states, but i've gone as high as 10 lbs 5 ozs on it. and it read the same as the scale at the post office. I can't imagine it working much past it's stated limit though. but i've never tried so..i can't say honestly. But its a good scale. Its light and easy to store away as its small. Something you can put in a desk drawer.

Yes it measures in ounces,as well as grams and pounds. This scale has been great for me when I'm making up burger patties. I hope this helps.

The scale is very accurate to even less than an ounce. The weight is displayed in decimals of an ounce. For example, for lighter items the display will show 0 lbs. 0.8 oz. It operates on batteries that make it very convenient to move.I had it for several months and it's a great and accurate scale. I'm very pleased with it. Rich G. Palm Harbor, FL

I'm not sure what weighing in money means. The scale weighs in ounces, grams and pounds. If you can weigh money in those areas, then yes it works.

In some products fluid ounces may correspond closely to weight ounces but no scale can measure volume. You have just been lucky that the weight measure has been close enough to the volume that your previous recipes have worked.

I've never tried it, but have you checked with the USPS to see if they have any calibration weights on site? I'm sure their scales, like all scales, have to be calibrated regularly. You could take it to them and see what they say. I live in a rural area and the local branch is never very busy, so I'm sure they would help me. A busier location may not be as helpful.

i used a 50 gram weight to calibrate it, so an ounce is 28 grams, right? you might need to use a tupperware, re-calibrate it with the tupperware on scale... an ounce is a little bulky for the small face of the scale. but love this scale.

If your letter, or package is weighing in ounces, you will be fine. The scale will give you an output of 1.2oz or .9oz or 2.7oz or whatever the weight may be. The only issure you will have is if the item weighs less than .1oz (1/10 of an ounce) .1 is the lowest measurement of this scale. So if your item is less than .1 oz, then your scale will read either .1 or 0.0. Any weight of .1 oz to 55.0.0 LBS this scale will weigh without problem. I hope this helps.

I find the scale to be accurate. Hard to say if it is accurate to the oz level. It usually matches my good scale at home. I travel with the portable scale to help maintain my weight on long business trips

Yes. That is correct. I tested it tonight at your request. I placed three objects on the scale that all together weigh 10.00 oz. Then I added an object that weighs .6 oz. The display read 10 oz. Never did it read 10.6 oz. The same result whether the additional weight was .5, .4, .3, .2, or .8 oz. When I added a full ounce, then the display changed to 11 oz. I hope that answers your question.

No scale will measure fluid ounces, unless you already know your material's density and hence the weight you need. Fluid ounces are a volume measurement, not weight.
