Need digital scale recommendations

You have lots of good ideas, but I thought I would confuse the issue with one more. I replaced a seven-year old Hornady electronic scale two months ago with the Hornady scale in this link, and couldn't be any happier.

My old Hornady scale, I believe I paid close to $100 for it in 2008, was really finicky with any air movement at all, and difficult to use if the heat was on or a fan was blowing. This is the opposite. I reload in an office built into my garage, and it is WARM right now. I had a fan on this weekend, and it didn't bother the scale at all.

Right now Amazon is selling it for just under $90, and I give it five-stars.

Good luck in your search.

I have the MTM ans Franklin Arsenal cheap scales. They work fine for the the couple hundred rounds I reload every month. If the Franklin Arsenal scale starts acting goofy I grab the MTM scale to double check the weights. The only problems I have ever had is when powder gets underneath the metal plate or if the battery starts going out. The scale definitely starts drifting under these scenarios, however that is the only time I have experienced it.
The MTM scale is accurate to .1 contrary to what the Amazon description says.
 
I'm always ready to find an excuse to buy a new toy but it seems to me electronics and reloading don't go well together. When a florescent light can affect what you are doing, something ain't right. I do mostly pistol reloading and use an old 505 to double check my Lee dippers. I think I have six .5 grain dippers and each one has been tweaked to give me a certain weight of a certain powder. Nothing to adjust and they work like a champ.
