If ya have ever had the batteries in something run out because you forgot to turn it off, you'll realize what a blessing this feature is. The JR2500 diamond and carat scale will automatically turn off after a few moments of inactivity.
The tare button on the front of this digital jewelry scale can be pressed to "zero out" the weight on the scale. You can then add more weight, and the display will only show the weight of the item you're adding. This sure is useful when ya want to get the weights of separate items.
If your application needs weights in the same unit of measurement, (like ounces for instance), it can be a real pain if your scale always turns on ready to weigh in grams. It's a good thing the Ruby JR-2500 turns on displaying the unit of measurement you were using when ya turned it off.
When ya get this digital scale, ya need to go over to the Ohaus website and register it to receive a one year warranty.
