do you know how many batteries and what kind of batteries are needed for this scale ?? does it eat through batteries or do the batteries last long ?

It will use 6 AA batteries. I have not heard of this scale eating through batteries, but unfortunately, I couldn't give you a battery lifetime. Thank you. Have a great day.

I cannot really answer your question, I just know that at times you get on the scale & it weighs you one thing, then step off & back on and it might give you an entirely different weight, then if you take your batteries out and put them back in it also might give you another weight. Sometimes I would think I wish I had gotten one of the old fashioned scales without batteries.

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

Hello, the scale runs on an ac adapter plug as well as batteries. If you would like to use it with batteries, you can us 6 AA batteries. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Thank you. Have a great day.

Hey Joseph. I still have my scale and it works great. No problems. It has a 2 yr Manufacturers warranty. Here is their new website. http://www.affordablescales.com/industrial-scales/shipping-scales/. Also I think the company sold to another company. They had some good videos on the scale. I found them on youtube. Just search "LSS shipping scale." Good luck.

It uses four Triple AAA batteries, which came with the scale. Batteries need to be put in once, taken out and put back in the set the scale properly. It was easy to do.

I checked the 1-p. user manual that comes with the scale, and it says "Battery: 2xCR2032," which I assume means it takes two CR 2032 batteries. They're cheap and you can get them at Amazon; I checked, and found 'em at this url:

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 really don't know. I have only had the scale with the batteries that came with it since February this year.

No, this scale does not use an internal battery. This scale runs off 110 volt AC current. The scale can be operated using a 12 volt deep cycle marine or heavy duty battery or a car battery if you use a power inverter. When we are selling at farmers markets that do not have AC power, we will run this scale with our vehicle battery and a power inverter plugged into the cigarette lighter and an extension cord to the scale.

It seems to vary on mine. Sometimes it will weigh something as light as 4oz. and then other times it takes 7oz. for it to start weighting. This is on battery power only though as I haven't used the supplied power supply yet. That may make a different, I just don't know. Otherwise, it's a very good scale.

I have used my scale almost every day since it was delivered in September and have yet to replace the batteries. I imagine it is all down to time and usage, plus the auto-off after one minute of being idle certainly helps conserve battery power.

Uses the button batteries which are more expensive than regular batteries. My scale broke in a years time and I bought a different brand.

On the underside there is a small removable cover, similar to radios and remote controls, remove the cover and replace the batteries. Simple and quick. When you use the scale, if you don't turn it off it will automatically turn itself off in about a minute so it doesn't run down the batteries. I had mine almost a year before I had to replace the batteries and I was using it daily.

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 believe it must be purchased separately. I use the battery option and an totally satisfied. LOVE the scale and its versatility.

Mine only lasted less than a year. Tried 2 new batteries, still would not work. Cost more to return it to distributor than a new Taylor scales cost. Taylor will be my choice in the future. Also, it would not fit in the cheaper postal box, because the scales are over sized requiring a larger box that is more expensive to ship back.
