I just bought this scale a couple of days ago and I need to calibrate it. It says to use a 50g weight but it didnt come with one and i dont really have one readily available. Any of you guys know anything maybe that you used or know that is 50g?
I find this pretty funny haha. It's kind of ironic. But if you REALLY need somthing that weighs 50g's, stack 10 nickles on it.. it should be between 49.7 and 50g.. -AFD
lol i did that, didnt work each one was different the sugar thing sound good ill have to try that thanks
do you have 2x 20's and a 10? 1x 20 and 3x 10's? 5x 10's? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????? EVEN ANY 5's?!?!? what a pointless scale
if its a "new" scale that shit should already be calibrated dude, unless you got it used. 10 nickels weighs 50 grams hell, my scales instructions even say "in emergency situations" (haha whatever a scale emergency might be) that 40 nickels will work to recalibrate it haha, so its a dialed way to calibrate
Would it be worse if I told you after it was a reacurring 6? The real number was actually 166666.66666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666 + infinite more 6s.
Doesn't sound like those nickels are that reliable. Between 4.7 and 5 grams? That .3 difference can be big if youre weighing out dimes...
nickels are reliable man, they all weigh the same cuz their precision milled and stamped only nickel i could see being off is the buffalo head ones, so use a standard nickel
