Will this scale readout in hundredths of a pound? For instance .25 instead of 4 oz?

No. It gives you the results in grams (141g), ounces (5.0 oz) or a pound/ounce conversion (0 lb 5.0oz). It does not convert to hundredths of a pound (e.g., where 5.0 oz becomes 0.31 pound).
924887
I don't believe so. pounds are broken in to ounces. then the ounces are decimalized instead of broken into drachm (drams) or grains. I only use it in grams and kilograms, much easier than the confusing pounds ounces etc etc etc that don't easily relate to each other.

Just to be clear, tho the scale CAN be accurate to hundreths of a Pound . . . It will not read out in pound hundreths DIRECTLY if that is what you want. To get that accuracy, you have to read the weight in Ounce or Grams units.
924889
No, it won't tell you the hundredths of a pound, but it will tell you hundredths of an ounce. There are multiple read-out settings: you can do ounces, grams, or pounds and ounces.

Unfortunately no. It gives three options: ounces, grams, or pounds and ounces. It does resolve the ounces to 1/100's of an ounce when in the ounce mode, and 1/10th of an ounce in the pound/ounce mode. It is extremely sensitive and repeatability is almost always perfect. I have compared it to known weights and found it to be extremely accurate.

The placeholders for the three read-outs are thusly:Grams: 0000Ounces: 000.00Pounds: 00:00.0From Escali's website:"Measures up to 11 lbs (5 kg) in 0.1 ounce (1 gram) increments." So, maximum measurements would look like this:Grams: 4989Ounces: 176.00Pounds: 11: 0.0Anything larger shows up as: EEEE

It reads out in grams or tenths of an ounce, such as 1.7 ounce. If it does it in hundredths of an ounce, I have yet in years of owning it figured out how to do that.

When the scale is in the ounces only mode, yes. When it's in the pounds plus ounces mode, I get one place holder for ounces. So I agree with O.M.Holmberg who commented on 17 Feb 2013.This scale is very useful & attractive enough to leave out on the sideboard. I use it for weighing out portions of food I plan to eat.

It measures in tenths of an ounce, so yes. I use it primarily for small packages and am very pleased with it.

There is a knob/switch under the scale (in the middle). Pressing that will change from oz to gram

Yes. If you push the on/off button while weighing, it will "hold" the reading. Hope that helps.

Hello Rebecca,Your answer is no, unfortunately. It's only in pounds. You need to convert the fraction of the pound to ounces if you need it. But it is a quality scale, otherwise.Phil.

This scale reads to .01 grams. If you have something that weighs 3.7 grams exactly it will read 3.70. One thing to note is that scales of this sensitivity need calibration to be accurate. This scale can self calibrate if you have a 100g weight I believe.

It only measures in grams. If you do the mathematical conversion on a calculator to ounces, I suppose you could.

Yes. It measure in kilograms and pounds. Here's the capacity: 2kg/4.4lb and the sensitivity is 1g/0.1oz meaning that's the least amount it will register. There is a button on the scale that allows you to switch between lbs and kgs. It works great. I have had it for more than a year and use it every day. Hope this helps.

This scale does NOT MEASURE OUNCES, regardless of what others have said (yes you can convert, but who wants to?). The ACP-500 will display in ounces but you lose a little accuracy. (ACP-200 is accurate to 0.02g or 0.000705479 ounces where the ACP-500 is accurate to 0.02g or 0.00705479 ounces) For most purposes (when measuring in ounces) accuracy to 7 1/1000ths of an ounces isn't bad, especially when it will only display to the nearest 1/100th of an ounce.

Weighs in ounces - not in fractions but to 2 decimals. It is really a nice scale.

My scales are analog, not digital, but mine weighs just a hair over 3 oz, so I would say yes, and I have checked ithe scales with calibration weights.

It measures up to two decimal places for ounces. For example, a book of matches weighed 0.15 ounces. It measures up to three decimal places for pounds.

No. It can not measure in increments of 0.05 oz. It only measures in increments of 0.5 oz. It can only measure 14.5, 15.0, 15.5 oz., etc..

hey rick, it displays grams and ounces (but not pounds). the upper right-hand button switches between ounces and grams, and also serves as the calibration menu. the unit also has a neat backlight for the numeric display if you ever use it in a place with poor lighting. great value for the price

If I understand your question, my answer is yes. The scale will weight to the one tenth of a pound. However, it will not weigh something that is only one then of a pound, if that is what you are asking.

It does not require calibration, but it sometimes under-weighs by .1 ounce. I bought a set of 1 oz and 2 oz weights and test it occasionally, especially when I get a reading that is exactly 1, 2, or 3 ounces.

Debra, Yes it has a large digital black readout...very visible when standing erect...The last weight I recorded was 127.8 so it definitely weighs by tenths. I don't recall it may so to hundredths. Great price, beautiful, functional, built by Conair. BUY it! Good luck!
