The functions I look for most in scales are an easy to use and reliable tare function, which clears the weight of a container, simple calibration and ability to easily change units of measure.
I have found most all digital scales produced these days to harbor most, if not all, of the above criteria.
Recently, I purchased two scales, a pocket scale which weighs items up to 250g by 0.1g increments and a larger unit which measures up 7000g by 1.0g increments, capable of accuratly measuring the weight of all but a few of the largest Drymarchon. I found both of these scales at the following link: www.RightOnScales.com...

Good luck,

Jeff
