Review on πŸ“ Beslands SF-500 Digital Force Gauge: High Precision Push and Pull Tester – Portable LCD Measuring Instruments, Dynamometer Pressure Thrust Meter (2N-500N) by Rey Hossain

Dead zone for near-zero measurements

The product is affordable. The documentation is difficult to understand and full of typos. The product will read 0.0 until a force of +5N or -5N is applied. This dead zone is very frustrating as the readings are accurate to within 0.1N at high forces. However, if you choose the factory calibration in the settings (overwrites any zeroing of the sensor), my device is set to an offset of 32.9N. Because of this offset, I can measure smaller forces. I don't know why they insisted on not showing measurements between -5N and +5N.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • There are some nuances
