recommendation for small scale for ECHO maintenance

[Karrieb61]

HI, getting ready to embrace an ECHO. We don't have a scale in our lab that goes to 2 decimal places and it sounds like we don't need a big one, just a small precise one. Only quote I got so far was for one close to $900. Yikes! Any other recommendations for the strip/residual saline checks I hear we will need to do? Thanks

We purchased a digital Jewelry scale off amazon I believe.  Was less than $50!  It was precalibrated and comes with a calibration weight.  Works perfectly.  Looks the same as what the service techs used.

We have a scale from My Weigh (honestly). We have used it for years and it has stayed calibrated very well. We borrow a set of calibrated weights from pharmacy and check it twice a year.

We use a Durascale 100. It cost us less than $100 at the time. It came with 2 calibration weights. We have its calibration checked annually and after 6 years it's still dead on the mark.

We have been using a DURASCALE 100 from MY WEIGH. It is great. You should look on line for a coupon for MY WEIGH. I don't remember where I found it but it dropped the price to $42.00. It has a lifetime/30 year warrenty. Never had to calibrate as it stays the same. Have used it for 7 years.

I got mine from Old Will Knott Scales.

I bought the ProScale LCS100, and the 100gram calibration weight.

All total I believe I paid $26.00 for all.
