Max. measurement weight
The largest weight that is allowed to be placed on the platform of this scale model. If this parameter is exceeded, the scales, at best, will not be able to show the correct data, at worst, they will completely fail. Obviously, the maximum weight is directly related to the purpose, but even kitchen scales can weigh both
up to 5 kg and up to 20 kg.
Actually, floor scales have the largest maximum measurement weight, in such models it can reach
200 kg or even more. And the most delicate are
jewelry models (refer to "Type"). Also note that in mechanical devices (refer to "Mechanism") the scale is usually graduated to the maximum weight.
Now on the market there are scales with such a maximum weight:
up to 1 kg,
up to 5 kg,
up to 10 kg,
up to 50 kg,
up to 150 kg,
up to 200 kg.
Hidden display
When off, the
hidden display blends in with the style of the scale's working surface and remains invisible. In the active mode, the characters on the screen shine through a certain place in the texture of the weighing area and the display shows the current measurements.
Power source
The vast majority of electronic scales are powered by a battery pack. But some models may have a
built-in battery, which does not require constant replacement. Just remember to recharge the scales.
Battery powered scales can use different types of batteries:
—
AA — the format of the classic "finger" batteries;
—
AAA — "microfinger" batteries;
—
CR2032 — the so-called coin type. Many PC users are familiar with this battery format. "Coins" are used to power BIOS memory in motherboards.
In addition to the type of batteries, you also need to pay attention to their number in the battery compartment.
