I buy cheap and throw away when they fail. If rather throw away a $12 scale
than a $200 one.

I've been weighing using two of the small 10g scales. I had a small
problem trying to weigh a short length of carbon thread. The 10g scales
wouldn't register any weight. My mini-digital scale showed a few
milligrams. I'm hoping the 10g scales were correct!
