Description
A&D HT-500 Compact Scale: 510 g × 0.1 g with Carrying Case
The A&D Weighing HT-500 is a tough, affordable compact scale that weighs up to 510 g in 0.1 g steps. It ships in a protective hard case you can weigh in: open the clear cover and the scale is ready to use. The cases stack neatly, which is why science teachers buy HT scales by the classroom set.
Four AA batteries (included) give up to 500 hours of use, and auto power-off turns the display off after 5 minutes of inactivity. The large 14 mm digits are easy to read, and a rear security slot lets you lock the scale to a bench.
