Default Looking for a digital weight scale

Can anybody recommend anything? I'm looking for something to weigh tiny parts, tires, small batteries, etc... things like that. I will mostly be using it with my 1/18 rc's. I can't believe I don't have one yet.

A 4lb-5lb scale sounds really good to me. A 2lb/1000g scale would also probably work for what I'll be using it for. I might need to weigh the car and battery seperatly though.

What do you guys think about either of these? I think they are big enough, what about the quality? I don't think there is one on there that's made in the US.

I'll continue searching.

Thanks guys,

This was the only one I found or Harbor Freight that looked like it might work. 11lbs would be great for my 1/8 cars. Would a scale this large still be able to see the small stuff I want to weigh though? Paper clip small?

Going back to e-bay now.

I can't seem to find the increments on it. It probably isn't "fine" enough to do a paper clip.
