## Description

Compact stainless steel milligram scale with 20g capacity, 0.001g readability, and protective weighing shield for precisely weighing small items like gems and valuables.

Review: Excellent scales - I bought these to weigh air rifle pellets in grains. I tried a few different brands beforehand and found they were inconsistent - a different weight would register when a pellet was removed from the scale then replaced. Not so with these, they are 100% consistent. Also, the supplied 20 gram calibration weight is a quick and precise check that the scales are working accurately. I use it every time I use the scales - if it doesn’t measure exactly 20.000 grams (there are good reasons this might occur), I recalibrate. Really pleased with this piece of kit.
Review: Precision at Your Fingertips: The AWS American Weigh Scales Portable Milligram Scale - **Headline: Precision at Your Fingertips: The AWS American Weigh Scales Portable Milligram Scale** As someone who frequently works with small quantities of materials, having a reliable and precise scale is absolutely crucial. After doing some research, I decided to purchase the AWS American Weigh Scales Portable Milligram Scale with a stainless steel platform from desertcart. Here’s my detailed experience with this product. From the moment I unboxed the AWS Portable Milligram Scale, I was impressed with its sleek design and compact size. The stainless steel platform adds a touch of durability and sophistication, which is reassuring for a tool that's meant to provide high precision. The overall build quality feels solid, and the compact design makes it incredibly portable, fitting easily into my pocket or a small compartment in my bag. One of the standout features of this scale is its accuracy. It can measure down to 0.001 grams (1 milligram), which is perfect for my needs. I use it for measuring small amounts of herbs, spices, and sometimes even tiny components for electronics projects. The precision is outstanding, and it consistently delivers accurate readings, which is something I can't say for other scales I've tried in the past. The backlit LCD display is clear and easy to read, even in low light conditions. This is particularly useful when I’m working late at night or in dimly lit environments. The display shows the weight in several units, including grams, ounces, carats, and grains, making it versatile for different applications. I find myself switching between grams and carats often, and the scale handles these changes seamlessly. Another feature I appreciate is the tare function. This allows me to zero out the weight of any container I’m using, so I only measure the content. It’s a simple feature but incredibly useful, especially when working with powders or liquids that need to be in a container. The operation is straightforward – just place the container on the scale, press the tare button, and the display resets to zero. The scale also comes with a protective cover, which doubles as a weighing tray. This is a thoughtful design choice, as it keeps the scale safe when not in use and provides an additional surface for weighing when needed. I’ve found this especially handy when dealing with loose materials that might spill or scatter easily. In terms of battery life, the scale is powered by two AAA batteries, which are easy to replace and widely available. The scale has an auto-off feature that helps conserve battery life when not in use, which is great because I often forget to turn it off manually. After several weeks of use, I have not encountered any issues with calibration or accuracy. The scale comes with calibration weights, which is a nice inclusion, although I haven’t needed to recalibrate it yet. The initial calibration out of the box was spot on, and it has remained consistent since then. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the AWS American Weigh Scales Portable Milligram Scale. It offers exceptional precision, a user-friendly interface, and a durable design, all at a reasonable price point. For anyone in need of a reliable and accurate portable scale, whether for professional use or hobbies, I highly recommend this product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you disable the auto-off function or run this scale from an external power source?**
A: Unfortunately it is not possible to disable auto off. There is no external power source socket either.

**Q: Do you have to use the weigh pan on this? Or can it be used without as I think the weigh pan would be a little small for my needs**
A: No, you do not have to. There is a raised platform to weigh on.

**Q: Would you reccomend this for weighing 4-50gr of gunpowder for reloading?  (Note grains not grams(1 gram=64.79891mg)) Thanks.**
A: Yes, for those quantities it'll be fine. It repeats with calibrated weights and "agrees" with other scales to 20grams (it's limit). Also, for the price it's great valueRegards Jon

**Q: Did anyone get a carrying case with this? Ordered twice (first one was faulty) from 2 different sellers and neither came with case as advertised on bo**
A: No case - just the box it came in

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quite good
*by T***R on 3 September 2025*

Quite good. Slightly better than the ones for twenty pounds but unless you pay 800 this is about as accurate as you can get for the price. I need to weigh tablets for tapering and need an accurate 14.3 mg for instance. Sometimes is will read 14.4 but that's not bad going for the price.
