Precision

Customers are highly satisfied with the precision of this digital hanging scale, praising its accuracy and repeatability for various uses including measuring doses, calibrating weights, setting bearing preload, and measuring recoil springs in guns. However, some users have noted that it starts in pound mode instead of metric mode and require manual adjustment.

Hanging Capability

Customers have generally positive opinions about the hanging capability of the American Weigh Scales AMW-SR-5 Yellow Digital Hanging Scale. Some users praise its hook design and ability to read small increments for hanging applications. However, a few customers express frustration with the scale's permanent hold function, which they find useless for their specific use cases. The issue was resolved by discovering a hidden button to disable the hold feature, making the scale highly recommended by those who have found this solution.
