What is the smallest weight this scale will measure in oz? I need to measure objects less than an oz, will this scale do this accurately?

For most accurate weight I would read it in grams then convert to ounces (28 grams in an ounce) I just tried a 2 gram weight which converted to 0.05 ounces when I changed units to ounces. (2 gm is the smallest weight I have)

I measure hair color on this scale and add it by the gram. It does a good job on accuracy, it just turns off rather quickly. You have about 30 to 40 seconds to measure before it turns itself off. Other than that it works great and to answer your question yes it measures less than ounces

Yes. It's accurate to 0.05 ounces (about 1.5 grams) so really small amounts. I have used it for mail also!

Hi, yes you can, but remember that this scale only measures smaller portions like ounces, grams etc. The scale is really good at measuring, I love it!

No. One gram is smallest unit it measures. But it is a great scale. Jeffry Wilkinson

The smallest unit is 1g for this scale. So it can not measure the item less than 1 gram.

Hi, Pat That's a really good question. I have been selling scales for several years. We carry pocket scale, kitchen scale, postal scale, pallet scale even some very professional scale. For your question, I'd like to say basically yes. Even sometimes you saw a high capacity scale with 0.1 oz preceison, that might be false advertisement unless there's new technology coming out now. This weighmax scale has a capacity of 75lbs and I described it as 0.2 oz precision. Actually, it can be used like that: When you weigh something under 35lbs, it's accurate to 0.1oz. when you weigh something above 35lbs, it will be accurate to 0.2 oz. When People weigh something really heavy, they won't care about that much about the graduations. So this might answer your concern, when you weigh anything under 35lbs, you can get like 30lb 1oz, 30lb 2 oz. Any other concerns, please let me know.

Although this is a scale, it is only used to weigh ingredients. It will not tell you how many ounces pounds grams so forth. It will just tell you whether not you added enough or too much.

Yes, I put a small stapler- personal use one, not business use one- on the scale and it weighed in at 2 oz. This scale weighs pounds, ounces and fractions of ounces ( not actually showing it as a fraction but in tens/tenths places). I can't remember what it was but something else I had weighed came in at .6 ounces. So yes, this scale can weigh items under a pound, just don't exceed the 85 pound max limit.

Yes, this scale does show the ounces. It is accurate, however since we use it in our Shipping/Receiving department primarily for UPS and FX shipments and not US Mail packages, I would not be able to respond to your second question.

I just pulled out my scale to test this. I set an object on it, set the tare weight to zero, then removed the object. The scale reads negative the exact weight of the object. It also reads in pounds & ounces.

No, it only tells you the actual and accurate weight of the item being weighed. If an item weighed more than one ounce and less than two ounces, you would need to apply two stamps, etc.

Minimum weight the scale that I have is, 0.1grams, or 0.01 oz, or 0.3 dwt, 0.01ozt,. dwt=pennyweight, ozt=troy ounce. Hope this helps. JB

I only use the scale on the metric base. But I checked with an item of 15 gramms (which ist equivalant to 1/2 oz) and the weight was correct.

The scale's minimum weight increment (and graduation) in ounces is 0.1 ounce (oz), or in grams it is 1 gram.

Very accurate! I use it for my etsy shop and I sell a lot of small items and it is wonderful. Never had a problem with small weights like ounces.

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.

I recently purchased this scale with the intention of weighing small packages to mail. I did test its weighing accuracy with another digital scale, & it was almost the same reading - within 1/10th on an ounce. You can choose the unit of weight. I only used it in lb:oz setting. It does have a fluid oz unit setting. You can weigh your container, then clear the on/tare weight to reset to '0', then add your foods into/onto your container. The display will show the item weight since your last clear. When you are finished, clear the weight, & remove your container from the scale. The total weight including your original container will display briefly. I wrote down the weight of the container, then subtract it from the total. Because I am using the scale to weigh packages, it is hard to see the screen underneath the larger package. Thats why I reset the weight to '0' then remove my package. If you are weighing smaller amounts where the screen is not obstructed, then the weight reading is the weight of the item(s) since the last clear. The scale is durable however, it is not sealed against spills getting underneath the sides. Another thing I have noticed. The scale will turn itself off after no activity in a few seconds. I cannot comment on its life expectancy. So far so good. Judy
