A compact handheld luggage scale for checking a bag before the airport. It tops out at a modest load, so very heavy cases may exceed its range.

Overview
An adjustable strap loops through a bag handle, and the comfort-grip handle is lifted until the LCD settles on a weight. Auto zero, auto off and a data lock feature make the reading easy to hold after the bag is set down.
The reason to buy is the short list of useful touches: backlit display, data lock, and a tape measure to check bag size as well as weight. The limit is the capacity, which stops short of the heaviest checked-bag allowances, and the battery type is not listed.
Who it's for
Frequent flyers who pack close to the limit and want to avoid overweight charges. Anyone who ships heavy freight, wants metric units, or needs a documented power source should check other scales.
Pros and cons
- Backlit LCD display
- Data lock holds the reading
- Tape measure included
- Auto zero and auto off
- Battery type not listed
- Pounds and ounces only
- Capacity limited for heavy cases
Performance notes
A suspension scale measures the pull on the strap, so the reading is steadiest when the bag hangs freely and the handle is held still. Auto zero resets the display before lifting, and data lock freezes the number once it settles. Accuracy is stated as a percentage of the load, so error grows slightly with heavier bags.
