Trident 50g X 0.001g, Pocket Scales

The Trident scale combines specific features that ensure accuracy and ease of use. From its sensitive load cell to the user-friendly interface, every component is chosen to deliver trustworthy results for materials where every milligram counts.

These core specifications combine to create a reliable and user-friendly precision instrument.

• Features a 0.001g resolution for exact measurements.
• The stainless steel platform is built for durability and easy cleaning.
• Comes ready to use with two AAA batteries included.
• Auto-calibration function simplifies the process of maintaining accuracy.

Beyond its core precision, the Trident scale includes several functions designed to streamline your workflow. Features like Tare and multiple unit modes make it a versatile tool for a variety of detailed measurement tasks.

How Does The Tare Function Help With Accuracy?

The Tare function allows you to reset the scale's display to zero after placing a container, like a weighing tray or piece of parchment paper, on the platform. This means the scale will only show the weight of the material you add, ignoring the container's weight. This is essential for getting clean, accurate measurements without any manual calculation.

What Weighing Modes Are Included?

The Trident is equipped to measure in six different units: grams (g), ounces (oz), troy ounces (ozt), pennyweight (dwt), carats (ct), and grains (gn). This versatility makes it useful not only for concentrates but also for weighing jewelry, precious metals, and other items where different units of measure are standard.

What Accessories Come In The Box?

To ensure you can get started right away, the Trident scale includes a set of essential accessories. In the box, you will find one pair of tweezers for carefully handling small items and a weighing tray that fits neatly on the platform. The protective cover also serves as an expansion tray for larger quantities.

Together, these features provide a flexible and accurate measuring experience for any task.

• The Tare function subtracts container weight for net measurements.
• Supports six units of measurement, including grams, carats, and ounces.
• Comes with tweezers and a dedicated weigh tray for easy handling.

A scale with 0.001g readability is necessary when precision is paramount. While a standard 0.01g scale is fine for general use, the Trident's higher precision is ideal for accurately portioning concentrates like rosin or shatter, where small amounts can make a big difference. It is also the standard for jewelers weighing gemstones or anyone performing tasks that require verifiable, micro-level accuracy.

This scale excels in applications where even the smallest measurements matter.

• Essential for precise dosing of potent concentrates.
• The preferred tool for weighing gemstones and small jewelry components.
• Provides ten times the precision of a standard 0.01g pocket scale.

Choosing the right scale depends on your specific needs for capacity and precision. The Trident TR50 hits a sweet spot for high-precision tasks in a portable format. Here's how it stacks up against other digital scales you might find under $50.

The Trident is the clear choice for users who prioritize milligram accuracy over higher capacity.

• Offers superior 0.001g precision compared to common 0.01g scales.
• Its 50g capacity is ideal for personal-scale precision tasks.
• Balances portability and accuracy in the sub-$50 price range.

Proper maintenance is key to ensuring your Trident scale provides accurate readings for years. Calibration and a stable environment are the two most important factors in maintaining its precision. Following a few simple steps will help you get reliable results every time.

What Calibration Weight Do You Need For This Scale?

The Trident TR50 requires a 50g calibration weight to perform its auto-calibration function. Using the correct weight is critical, as the scale's internal software is programmed to adjust itself based on this specific mass. Calibration weights are sold separately and are essential for long-term accuracy.

How Do You Prevent The Scale From Drifting?

Drifting, where the numbers fluctuate without anything on the scale, is common with sensitive 0.001g scales. It is usually caused by environmental factors like air currents, vibrations, or static electricity. To prevent this, always use the scale on a flat, stable surface away from vents, fans, or drafts. Using the included protective cover can also help shield the platform from air movement.

How To Calibrate Your Trident Scale In 4 Steps

1. Power on the scale and let it warm up for 60 seconds on a stable, level surface.
2. Press and hold the "MODE" button until the display shows "CAL".
3. The display will flash "50.000". Gently place a 50g calibration weight on the center of the platform.
4. Wait for the display to show "PASS", then remove the weight. Calibration is complete.

Regular calibration and a stable environment are the keys to long-term precision.

• Requires a 50g calibration weight (sold separately) for accuracy.
• Operate on a level surface away from drafts to prevent drifting.
• The auto-calibration process is quick and straightforward.
• Allowing the scale to acclimate to room temperature can improve stability.
