HA! You can still get the old beam powder scales:

Then you won't have to worry or scrounge around for a battery

I've got an old one around a friend gave me a long time ago. Worked
good for reloading small batches. Even had a magnetic damper in it that
helped slow oscillations when approaching your set weight. I'll bet
it's still working and accurate long after the digital craps out...
