Best milligram scale?

Original post in this thread

charlesbukowksi · 8 points

I'm using American Weigh Scales GEMINI-20 but find it has serious problems when taring anything relatively outside its bounds e.g. a shotglass for holding compound.

Any recommendations?

I think a lot of people having issues with the Gemini-20 are getting Chinese knockoffs. I have both in our office, along with a $3,000 Ohaus .1mg balance, and a bunch of other accurate Ohaus scales. My brand name Gemini-20 I got a few years ago is accurate and repeatable. The knockoff one is unreliable, and fluctuates at low weights. It could also be that recent AWS batches are having issues. Perhaps they changed suppliers, or got a bad batch. My old Gemini-20 has been an accurate workhorse, and I have compared the weights many times across out other scales, and have not found any issues. However, I do not tare the scale with a lot of weight on it. A shot glass is too heavy for that purpose on the Gemini-20.
