Dude, that first one is tiny and only supports 6 lbs! Besides, what if you needed tape.

I have this one 75lb model. For $15 delivered.
The only issue is when it locks, on a weight quick.
So you have to remove grain then wait 10~ or so seconds to clear.

When adding grains to bucket if you slow down or stop.
The screen will lock at that weight. So what i do is.
Bucket on scale> Tare to zero
Remove bucket,then add grain to bucket,then back on scale.
Get reading and get it off quick,because if it locks to weight,then you have to
wait what seems to be like 10 seconds to clear back to zero.
It does this so if you take something off. You dont have to put it back on scale.
I guess thats for mail places they walk away,weight still on screen.
