I use a balnce scale and grains of white rice. It may not be the
most accurate, but I find it serves my purpose well.
I used to weigh against sardines which I found served my porpoise(who
dressed as a nun and did some weird photography stuff) well....but
he had a habit of blowing everything out of proportion.

It's easy to use, measures in grains (grams also but grains is what
the colonial guys use) and is battery operated. For long term
viewing nights, I recommend using the AC adapter that plugs in the
wall. Actually, I don't know if I've ever used a battery in mine.
The accuracy is 0.1 grains. I don't know if Tom is still selling
these but I'm sure you can do a google search for Dillon.
