I'm a superhero at measuring tools and scales

I use scales to weigh and sort ammo. I was pleasantly surprised that the scale proved to be accurate with the included 100g (+/- 0.001g) weight. After opening the scale and calibrating it, it seemed to work fine for 30 minutes. However, I have found that when my fingers hover over the scale with no weight on the scale, the weight changes by -0.05x grams. That's when I realized that I'm a superhero because I can manipulate gravity. After I restarted the scale, the 100 gram weight now weighed between 100.03 and 100.06 grams. Before that, he was almost dead. Also, the presence of my fingers no longer affected the scale. Repeated weighing of the same object resulted in different values in hundredths each time. I'm not sure what happened. It worked well, with the thousandths digit dropping to 0.006 grams. What is the actual resolution of these cheap scales? I will return this scale and try again. Hope the second works better. Update: 11/21/2021 The new scale registers 50 g as 50.001 g, but 100 g as 100.44 g. Also, I've regained my superpowers and can manipulate the weight by moving my fingers along the weight. 50g seems to be constant and 100g stays the same as in the beginning. So maybe 100g is actually heavier than 100g. Its drift is between 100.03 xg and 100.05 x. Update: 11/22/2021 The new scales are unpredictable. The weight of 50 g is now recorded as 50.022 g and not as 50.001 g as before. 100g now weighs more. This scale is also returned. it is unreliable.

Pros
  • Great for a small house
