Will this scale readout in hundredths of a pound? For instance .25 instead of 4 oz?

No. It gives you the results in grams (141g), ounces (5.0 oz) or a pound/ounce conversion (0 lb 5.0oz). It does not convert to hundredths of a pound (e.g., where 5.0 oz becomes 0.31 pound).
924887
I don't believe so. pounds are broken in to ounces. then the ounces are decimalized instead of broken into drachm (drams) or grains. I only use it in grams and kilograms, much easier than the confusing pounds ounces etc etc etc that don't easily relate to each other.

Just to be clear, tho the scale CAN be accurate to hundreths of a Pound . . . It will not read out in pound hundreths DIRECTLY if that is what you want. To get that accuracy, you have to read the weight in Ounce or Grams units.
924889
No, it won't tell you the hundredths of a pound, but it will tell you hundredths of an ounce. There are multiple read-out settings: you can do ounces, grams, or pounds and ounces.
924890
Unfortunately no. It gives three options: ounces, grams, or pounds and ounces. It does resolve the ounces to 1/100's of an ounce when in the ounce mode, and 1/10th of an ounce in the pound/ounce mode. It is extremely sensitive and repeatability is almost always perfect. I have compared it to known weights and found it to be extremely accurate.

The placeholders for the three read-outs are thusly:Grams: 0000Ounces: 000.00Pounds: 00:00.0From Escali's website:"Measures up to 11 lbs (5 kg) in 0.1 ounce (1 gram) increments." So, maximum measurements would look like this:Grams: 4989Ounces: 176.00Pounds: 11: 0.0Anything larger shows up as: EEEE
924892
It reads out in grams or tenths of an ounce, such as 1.7 ounce. If it does it in hundredths of an ounce, I have yet in years of owning it figured out how to do that.

When the scale is in the ounces only mode, yes. When it's in the pounds plus ounces mode, I get one place holder for ounces. So I agree with O.M.Holmberg who commented on 17 Feb 2013.This scale is very useful & attractive enough to leave out on the sideboard. I use it for weighing out portions of food I plan to eat.

Yes. It measures in Kilograms/grams when set to 0.00 by pressing the LB/KG button.

No. This scale only weighs in increments of .05 oz. so if you have .07 oz of anything it will show .05. If you have .03 of anything it will show .00. So this is not the scale for you. We never weigh anything less than 1 oz. so we are happy with this scale.

It willl read .25 ounces. It can change to a variety of units. oz., lb oz., grams

Yes. It measure in kilograms and pounds. Here's the capacity: 2kg/4.4lb and the sensitivity is 1g/0.1oz meaning that's the least amount it will register. There is a button on the scale that allows you to switch between lbs and kgs. It works great. I have had it for more than a year and use it every day. Hope this helps.

This scale reads to .01 grams. If you have something that weighs 3.7 grams exactly it will read 3.70. One thing to note is that scales of this sensitivity need calibration to be accurate. This scale can self calibrate if you have a 100g weight I believe.

No, it's 2 decimal places but the 100ths place is measured only by .05 degrees... so as an example, it will read 33.30 or 33.35 or 33.40
1561270
Yes it shows in pounds. Over 16 oz. it will show 1.(hundred oz.) or as 1.25 (one pound and 1/4). I hope this helps.

The short answer is "yes." You simply put the measuring container (plate, cup, jar, whatever) on the scale and press the On/Off button. It immediately zeros the scale. You can then add the item to be weighed to the measuring container and the readout will display the weight of that item without having to subtract the weight of the container. Easy peasy! Apparently not everyone is aware of the tare function of this device -- hence some of the confusing answers.

Yes, it will work. I just tested it on some small kitchen items like spoons/measuring cups and I am able to get a reading as small as 0.1 pounds

The manufacturer calls the "Accuracy" as the "Acceptable Tolerance" and it is "+/- 0.02 g." Exactly the same calibration standard weight doesn't always read the same number (measurement repeatability). But my 100-gram calibration weight has always read within this "+/- 0.02 g" accuracy. I've found that the "sensitivity", or the "minimum measurable weight", is about 0.03 gram. There is some hysteresis effect to it. That is, after you measured 0.05 gram, then you can reduce the weight to the minimum 0.03 gram. You can't directly measure the 0.03 gram weight without adding some additional weight first, then take away the additional weight. The "reading resolution", or the "Readability" as called by the manufacturer, is, of course, "0.01g."

Yes. This scale can be set to display weight as either grams and kilograms, or ounces and pounds. You only need to press the MODE option.

There's no way. It's supposed to be auto calibrated. Mine was always off by 20 to 30 pounds. Never the same amount, though. Worst scale ever.

I did some investigating with my scale - it doesn't convert to lbs once it's over 16 oz, BUT you can hit the "unit" button while the item is still on the scale, and it'll convert to lbs.

I use these scales in my BBQ restaurants and we weigh ounces, pounds, etc. Haven't tried to weigh in hundredths of pounds.

There is a knob/switch under the scale (in the middle). Pressing that will change from oz to gram

It only measures in grams. If you do the mathematical conversion on a calculator to ounces, I suppose you could.
