I need a better scale, really good one, anyone done that is willing to let go??

Im using the Gemini-20 and its is so not accurate.......feeling the cuts because of.....TY

Sunflower,

 

I use this scale for my meds:

 

https://www.amazon.com/American-Weigh-GEMINI-20-Portable-MilliGram/dp/B0012TDNAM/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1519167949&sr=8-4&keywords=milligram+scale&dpID=41YcbMS0XFL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

 

It is excellent.  It is about +/- 3 mg.  That sounds like a lot.  It is not.  A "2 mg" diazepam pill can weigh 150 mg, so you need to do algebra, but that means that the +/- 3 mg does not mean much.

 

For example, say you want to take 5.5 mg at a given dose, two 2 mg pills gives you 4 mg, then you weigh the pill and let's say it weighs 150 mg (mine does) so to get your 1.5 mg diazepam:

(1.5/2) = x /150, x = (1.5 x 150)/2 = 113 mg +/- 3 mg.

 

The scale will "drift" and you have to tare it often, but for $22 + shipping, you cannot beat it,  A truly precise scale would cost over $1000.

 

Be well and good luck,
