Scales that can't make up their mind
Well I'd not go that far, but did you know that on different bits of the
earth the gravity can vary and hence no scale is going to be completely
accurate?
Salter used to make the Weigh****cher scales, but as most of these things
tend to be made in China anyway, the actual make probably does not matter.

Not really a DIY question (unless it turns out that there is in fact a
DIY fix), so apologies.
I have a bathroom scale with an LED display (branded Weight Watchers but
I don't know the actual maker) which is a good few years old now. It's
always been completely reliable but over the last couple of days the
display has refused to stabilise: it flicks up and down over a range of
about half a stone, never stopping on any one reading.
I'm assuming that it's an electronics problem rather than a mechanical
one, but am I correct?
Many thanks.
the only reliable scales are beam balance. ALL the standonm pressiure ones
are in the end utter ****.
