Free: Portable weighing scales (West Bridgford NG2) Do you need to be able to weigh something quickly all the time? Or maybe you just like old fashioned tech This Salter Pocket balance may be just the thing. It is old and the scale is quite small but it says it will weigh anything you can hang on the hook up to 50lbs. It also has a kg scale up to 23kg. I have not tested it to check accuracy.

Useful in a one-to-one meeting or where there is a counter between you. It is designed to use an internal microphone but also comes with a small microphone and earphones if needed.
