Where are you guys getting your corner weight scales? Also what brands do you recommend?

Thanks for any info.

We use Longacre scales. They seem to work pretty well.

We use regular bathroom scales. Not that expensive, and the weight per wheel for us is well within their normal operating range (130 - 195 lb)

I have four Pelouze digital industrial mail scales. Quite accurate, repeatable and up to 400 pounds per scale. about $125 each at a Business Depot type store, they are for shipping departments. Digital readouts but you have to figure the percentages by hand.

We use digital postal scales that were purchased off ebay.

I believe ours only go up to somewhere around 200lbs per corner, which should be fine for FSAE use.

We borrowed scales from U Kansas at competition this year, and I loved it! I think we had the car balanced in about 3-5 minutes http://fsae.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Thanks for the replies!

For the people using an intercomp setup, where did you purchase it from?
