Default Nitrous scale?

I now have a refill station, but I need a scale. I would like a nice one(digital), but still on a budget. What is everyone else using or had experience with. Any help is appreciated.

I just use my cheap *** bathroom scale. I dont see it as being that critical unless your trying to be exact for retail sales purposes. Then again I purposefully overfill My 15# bottles by 1#

I found a good one on ebay that I can keep in the trunk and take to the track. Battery operated and works great. Here's the link:

Check Ebay for scales made by J-Ship. They are great scales for the money, about $80. They do up to 275lbs so you can keep track of your mother bottle weight too.

Default found one

I ended getting a 265#er off of ebay for $70 shipped. I was looking for a heavy unit so I could keep track of the mother, and whatever else comes off of the car. Thanks for all of the help.
