Can someone please tell me what type of battery this scale uses?

A pair of button batteries. The battery model number is clearly marked on the bottom of the scale and the replacement was very easy

I looked at my old battery and it has no number on it, I saved it so I could take it into a store and get one like it. I also checked the info sheet that came with it and that was of no help either. Have you tried to ask the Spark people? Some one there should be able to tell you. As for the store to buy it.......I have had luck with buying batteries for my food scale at ACE Hardware. You might also try Walmart. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.......Good luck.

We're still on the set of batteries that came with the scales. The good thing is that these scales take regular batteries, where our last set took special disc shaped batteries that we expensive and didn't last that long.

Open box the battery was dead.I went to battery plus purcashed new battery for around $19.00. The scale works fine now.

This weight watchers scale runs on batteries. It only takes a 9 volt battery, and it just takes one 9 volt battery to power it. I know this, because I have this exact scale, & it is really accurate and precise. You will enjoy this scale.

I don't have a scale, but its about like what is probably inside -4 or so AA batteries.

We purchased this scale almost two years ago. It's used approximately 3-5 times a week. We haven't replaced the batteries yet.

I wasn't crazy about this when I got the scale but because the scale is only about a half inch thick it makes sense. It uses two batteries about the size of a nickle. 2032 is the actual size number. It is a great scale btw! Easy to clean any spill on it.

It Uses The Flat Button Batteries That Go For Home Scales. Usually They are bought in a set which will be cheaper and better.

It uses 4 tripple a's but they come with it. The scale shuts off automatically so the batteries should last a long time.

I agree with the other answers. We use this for our farmers market and the battery will last days when charged. Such a great scale!

The scale comes with batteries installed, all you have to do to activate is pull the tape. I have had the scale for almost a year and have not replaced the batteries. This scale turns off pretty quickly once you step off saving battery power. The answer to your question regarding battery replacement is battery #CR2032. It is the button lithium battery and they usually come 2 in a pack. Hope this helps.

I believe it's for operating the scale with electricity rather than battery. If you use the scale almost continuously during the day, it might be more convenient to use the adapter. I use my scale for weighing homemade soap ingredients perhaps every few weeks, so operate the scale by battery. The scale turns off automatically if it's not used within a five-minute period, so battery life is conserved well. Love my scale!!!

I'm not sure yet. I've had the scale almost 3 months and it's still going strong. Since it has an LED screen I imagine it would use up batteries a little faster than your average scale, but all other scales I've had have lasted years without the batteries dying. My kids love the light on the scale so they jump, play, and otherwise abuse it. Nothing has phased it so far. I'm still happy with it!

Unfortunately we gave the scale away along with the manual. I could not find it online. Maybe manufacturer could help.

There is a small know like thing next to the battery. If you switch it the scale should be updated to KG.
