Best/most accurate portable luggage scale?
Thinking of getting one after my latest check-in "incident" with Scoot which turned into a bit of a circus - any recommendations for something solid and accurate? @:-)
Price is secondary so no difference whether it costs $5 or $35 as long as it's the best portable scale out there.

I think the inner mechanism and the display on these units are very generic.
I bought a no name in HK for $20HK when the same one branded at Samsonite was $20US about eight years ago and it is still working. I only use it for family leisure trip where I surrender control of luggage to SWMBO.

Is this one any good: http://www.amazon.com/Tarriss-Jetset...dp/B00HSWJUI6/
Seems to get good ratings at Amazon but I thought I'd check with fellow FT'ers first and foremost.

I also found this one http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B004ROHCDS/ but I'm not sure if this is the "original" Karcher brand or something else...
