which battery is suitable for this scale?

Don't bother. It's a piece of junk. I actually took out the battery and then disassembled the scale to use the glass for an art project. It's that bad. :(

Quoting from instruction manual, "Use 1-3 volt CR2032 lithium battery. Your Taylor scale has a lithium battery installed to provide extra long energy life for your scale. Under heavy usage (Health Club, Wellness Clinic, etc.) the battery may eventually need to be replaced." One tip, you need to step on the scale once, step off, and step back on to get an accurate reading. This insures the scale is set. If you do not move the scale, you probably do not need to do this but once. I move my scale away from the wall every time I use it, so I just made it a habit to step on and off, then step back on for the accurate reading. It reads to the tenth of a pound, like 130.2. My old scale rounded up to the half pound. Quoting from instruction manual, "Use 1-3 volt CR2032 lithium battery.

actually any 9volt battery of your preference would be fine; I get good use out of the Duracell duralock batteries.

The battery that it uses is the small round one like a watch would use or digital scales. I haven't had them long enough to know but would expect several years from them based on the battery type.

Hi. This looks like the exact battery I bought to replace in my security system. My guess would be like you are suggesting (4 lb.). It is pretty small and thin to fit in the shallow security box. Hope this helped. Nick

Assuming this is the right size battery, I would chose a AW battery. They have better ratings.

Two CR2032. These are fairly common button-style batteries. I am not sure how long they will last. We have had ours a few months and the ones that came with the scale are still working fine.

Any 12-volt deep cycle will do but don't get one of those skinny ones. The ones you want are roughly the size of a car battery. I'll try to check the brand of mine and update this, it's worked for 4-5 weekends a year for almost 10 years now

Any deep cycle battery will work fine. I use the same one as I use on my trolling motor and don't have any issues.

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.

One of those little flat batteries like a watch battery only bigger. I thought mine was dead once but I took it out, wet it, and put it back in and it was fine. Since then, I've noticed that if the scale is not used for a while, it kind of "shuts down," and you have to step on it a couple of times to "wake it up." That's a good thing, because the battery is not being used up. Btw, it totally agrees with the scale at my gym, so I'm very happy with it. And takes up very little room in my tiny bathroom.

Just a good deep cycle marine battery. Quality would be relative to your budget. Just make sure it's a deep cycle marine battery.

It has one of those ordinary CR 2032 lithium batteries. I've had the scale a few months now, and the battery it came with has not yet run down. Hope that helps.

It would really be a matter of judging which of your current batteries would best cover the area that is left. I would probably go for just the 4Ah though.

I have been using my scale plugged in. So I tried with a 9 volt battery and it worked fine. Try a new battery. I tried it with the plug attached and not. Worked either way for me. Good luck!

I would copy all the specs off the battery, including the size, and do a search on the net. I've found oddball batteries for everything on the net.

I don't know... but for 10 bucks what do you want? lol... anyway, only thing was when it needed new batteries last week, the numbers on the scale weren't holding steady. Would I buy it again? For $10. you can't go wrong. Get it..u won't be sorry....warranty or not.
