electronic scale

Battery-powered mass measurer

An electronic scale is a weighing device that uses sensors and digital circuitry to measure mass, displaying results on a screen rather than a mechanical dial or balance beam.

Electronic scales range from kitchen models measuring grams to industrial platforms handling tons.

They offer greater precision and often additional features like tare buttons and unit conversion: The electronic scale showed she'd lost three pounds.
