I have had the scale for 5 months and am getting a "lo" now instead of a reading so I guess the batteries need to be changed that quickly.

Not sure. I have had for quite a few months and haven't needed to change them. I think watch batteries though

It uses 2 CR232 batteries. I love this scale so far. I have had it about 2 months now. It was easy to program if you just follow the instructions.

2 pcs. 3V Lithium batteries. There's batteries included when I bought the unit.

I really do not know. The scale was a gift and never explored the warranty issue. Sorry

I am so sorry but I bought this scale as a gift for someone so I really am not able to answer your question.

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.

Thanks again John, you have been very helpful! After a lot of research (mine and yours), I have realized that my (US) scale will probably never display metric. Thus, I have just returned it and will order the HBF-500. Thanks again for your help.

There is no calibration to this scale. It does have a ZERO or TARE setting so you can adjust for containers. Hope this helps

Buy a different scale... This scale would never give consistent readings...

Yes, it changed depending on where it was setting, it changed even when I never moved it. The company said it was because I had it setting on a linoleum floor, which was the hardest floor in my house. I'm not sure I buy that explanation. I sent it back to Amazon. Do not buy this scale!

It is simple, just put whatever you want to tare out on the scale and press the Z/T - On/Off button. The scale then shows 0.00 on the display, pronto!

On the back of the scale there is a button labeled kg/st/lb. Pressing that button cycles through the three different units of measure. Enjoy.

Hi Susan!We returned the scale b/c it did not weigh in accurately when compared to other scales we used.Good luck with it!

I'm pretty sure there's no way to recalibrate it. If there is, it isn't mentioned in the manual. Basically, Escali is saying that some of their scales have a calibration feature (I don't think this model does though). For the scales without a calibration feature, you could buy a reference weight to see how accurate the scale is (that's a weight that is guaranteed to weigh a certain amount, within a specified tolerance), but after you figured that out, there's no way to calibrate the scale to correct for the discrepancy. (For the record, mine has been plenty accurate for anything I've used it for. I haven't used a reference weight to check its accuracy or anything, but I haven't ran into any recipes that needed a super-high degree of accuracy anyway.)

I have used my scale often and like it. It has 6 modes, including Newtons. Only says "Bench top-Pro" for model.

Unfortunately we gave the scale away along with the manual. I could not find it online. Maybe manufacturer could help.
