Product Description

Product Description

Travelling by air can be a stressful experience at the best of times and the last thing you need is to arrive at the airline check in desk only to be told your luggage exceeds your personal allowance and that you will have to pay an excess baggage charge. The only way to ensure you avoid these charges is to ensure your luggage does not exceed your alowance and the easiest and quickest way to so this is with the Salter Luggage Scale. The Salter Luggage Scale is a compact and easy to use solution to the problem of weighing luggage. Simply attach the hand held Salter Luggage Scale to the handle of your luggage using the strap, lift the luggage off the floor using the scale handle grip and wait a couple of seconds for the beep which tells you the scale has registered the weight. Then put the lugagge back on the floor and check the LCD reading on the lugggage scale - easy! The scale weighs up to 40kg in 100g increments meaning it has a host of other uses and its compact design means it will fit easliy into your luggage and travel with you anywhere.

4.0 out of 5 stars Salter Luggage Scale 23 May 2009
What nobody seems to tell you about this nifty little scale is that it itself weighs only 154gr, less than a small paperback and light enough to put in your suitcase to weigh it again for the journey home. Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Marvellous Device 4 Jun 2009
This cleverly designed little weighing scale is so simple to use. No more trying to balance a suitcase on my bathroom scales or holding the case and then deducting my weight. And, I took it with me on holiday so that I could be sure not to carry any excess weight on my return journey home. With airlines now being so restrictive on baggage allowance, the fear of being charged an excess fee can be eliminated. So much less expensive to dispose of books you've read, bottles of shampoo, suntan lotion etc. before returning home when you know what weight your luggage is before leaving.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have and here's a tip 13 Aug 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase
As others have already said this is a light, accurate (so far) and well designed gadget. Here's a tip: To save on battery power and not be inconvenienced by a drained battery, when not in use, slide out the battery compartment and put a small piece of thin paper on one side and push the battery back in place. This is similar to the tabs used in gadgets that come with batteries which you pull out before use. When you need to use it next, simply remove the paper - use the gadget - put paper back in. The gadget does automatically switch off but it will continue to passively use battery power. Be safe and keep it going for longer!

We purchased these scales as we are travelling around the world using low cost airlines and we have to keep to the 15kg hold and 7kg carry on allowances. So far we have been able to avoid any additional charges. I guess they will more than pay for themselves over the next few months.

PS The accuracy seems pretty good when I compare the readings with the ones used at check-in!

3.0 out of 5 stars Accurate luggage scale 3 Dec 2009
By Lance
its fairly accurate but a bit temperamental. needs a clean (jerk) lift up to get a reading. if you are measuring anything over 15kg, best you have someone else to hold each ends and you have to both lift at same time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Salter Digital Luggage Scales 23 Feb 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
Pros:
Compact design. Lightweight and very comfortable to hold, even with heavy luggage.
Easy to read scale can be viewed from above, but anyway the reading is held for one minute or can be reset at any time. I've checked its readings over the range: accuracy is very good.
The built-in webbing strap is well designed to quickly clip around any shape of luggage handle.
Battery compartment very accessible. Battery can be replaced quickly without a screwdriver.

Cons:
Can't think of any ! except that the scale reading could do with a second or two additional delay time to allow weight to settle. It's a bit over-enthusiastic to hold its reading, so I would recommend taking a few additional reset readings to fully confirm your luggage weight. Often the first one is indicated as too light. Make sure that there is no tension on the weighing strap when resetting though, or you will get a false reading.
You soon get used to its quirks. After all, it's going to save you a lot of money in overweight penalty fees.

Overall: Excellent value for money, easy to use and accurate. Wouldn't be without it. A MUST to take with you, to avoid overweight bags on the return trip.
