Please, does this scale measure peak weight? This means, when I am pulling, the rest, final weight, is smaller than the peak weight during pulling.

Unfortunately no, this scale does not measure peak weight. However it does measure the weight very accurately so for example if you are measuring the peak draw weight of a compound bow you would simply pull back slowly through the draw and have someone else watch the scale as you pull and read the peak weight.

Not quite sure what you mean but if you pull on the scale it will weigh more than when you release it and let whatever your weighing sit there. For the money it worked well for me.

The version I received *does* measure peak weight. You simply press the "Hold" button until the reading reads "L_p". Pressing the "Hold" button will cycle between "L_n" (No hold), "L-a" (Auto hold), "L_p" (Peak hold).

My understanding of the product for accurate weights recommends the scale is stationary when taking a weight and also whatever you're weighing is not moving (Ex: fish). Anytime you are pulling and imparting more stress it will register it, but you would have to be looking at the scale to capture that information. I hope that helps.

It's not really set up for that. If you put the bow in a vice and used the scale on a pulley you might be able to do it. i would try pulling a bit at a time and checking the weight at every half inch or so. I use it for primitive homemade bows. There is no let-off so I haven't had the issue.

Since I use it strictly just for measuring my horses feed, I'm still not sure what peak weight is. But, I do know that I can place the bucket on the hook and start filling it until it reaches the desired weight or if it's too heavy to begin with remove until I reach the desired weight. I've never moved the scale unit when weighing only the bucket. Sorry.

Unfortunately not. The reading changes instantly. I had to buy a bowl with a bottom diameter about the size of the scale one.

This morning I stepped on it and it told me my weight. (down six pounds) I understand your confusion, some scales do require a "tap" This one does not. I will check tomorrow to be sure.

Yes, it will display a negative result if something is removed from the scale after taring. Because the sensors keep reading the weight of the items on the platform. Please keep in mind to make sure the screen show '0' before you weigh an item, if it doesn't show '0', you may touch the TARE key to clear the result and reset it to Zero.

I don't think it captures peak weight, I use it for real-time readings. As far as calibrating, you leave it idle, and it "zeros out", then you put it in use.

It does, in that if you place a container on it and press to zero the scale, then put in the container what you are weighing,and press the activating button again you will get the weight of what you added.

Yes it does. And what's nice is that you can remove the container after hitting the tare button, and the scale remembers the value (it will then show a negative value when the container is removed). So it allows you to remove the container and fill it at a more convenient location and then place the filled container back on the scale to weigh the contents' weight.

You are definitely not missing something. I get the same reading. Since you are holding something that is not a part of your normal body composition the scale gives you the actual weight that is standing on it. Between the handles and, I would assume, the coiled lead it will take into account the additional weight. If I want my true weight I step on the scale without the handles first. I use the handle and those readings for progress only, not actual weight.

Sounds like you have a faulty scale...I suggest returning it for replacement. This has never happened with mine.

To be honest with you I don't recall.. I can't imagine that it does not, but I was not satisfied w/the results in pounds (when compared to other scales I had) so I returned it for lack of accuracy. The lack of accuracy would have reflected both in pounds and kilograms so the issue was moot to me. I highly recommend that you read all reviews before deciding to buy this product!

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.

I'd have to research a response on the Withings web site. Another person has responded to your inquiry, and the answer seems plausible. Withings finally responded to my comments about the accuracy of the scale and it's inability to distinguish between users. If users weights are less than 10 pounds apart, each will have to stand on either the left or right leg to tell the scale which person is on the scales. I reaffirm my opinion that this is just something assembled so the company has something to sell rather than meeting a consumer need with a well engineered and serviceable appliance.

Most all scales of this size are the same in their basic features. It really depends on what you are weighing. I use mine to weigh out gold that I have prospected and it gets right most all the time.

My scale did not measure bodyfat or any of the other listed measurements. It only allowed me to store my particulars and take weight measurements. Mine was either defective or wasn't really capable of doing the measurements as advertised. I sent mine back to Amazon and they refunded my money.Hope this helps you in determining your next course of action with your scale.

It did seem to be slightly smaller but didn't actually measure it. Hasn't been an issue for me.

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

I have not had this problem with this scale, check batteries and I would ask if you are sure you are on the lb and ounce measurement setting not grams, etc. Also if it had any water poured on it accidentally I had to replace previous scale after I spilled liquid on it.
