Rapala Fish Scale, September 30, 2009
By Bobe1783 from Richmond, VA

Disadvantages: Difficult to use, Performance

"Unfortunately, I am unable to get the scale to read in pounds and having the weight in Kg is of no use. I've tried repeatedly to change to pounds without success and will return the unit and buy something else. I needed a magnifing glass to see the Kg sysmbol. The readout is small and doesn't have a backlight. Maybe I just got a "bad" one but it isn't very impressive or useful."

Great bang for the buck!, July 23, 2009
By KaMeL

Advantages: Ease of use, Performs well, Value for money
Disadvantages: not waterproof

"I just received the scale therefore did not test it on the water, but so far I am very happy.
I checked the accuracy using various household items (salt, flour, etc) and compared to the kitchen scale. This rapala scale seems to be very accurate. It doesn't show fractions of the ounces but I doubt you will ever need that. In addition I also used 5lbs and 10 lbs gym weights and the accuracy was great.

This rapala can display weight in 2 units (3 modes) Mode 1: XX . XXX KG Mode 2: XX . XXX Lbs Mode 3 XX LBS XX Ounces

The only con is that it doesn't seem to be waterproof, but that's not a big deal!

How to switch from Kilograms to pounds, June 14, 2009
By jalpino

Advantages: Style/Design
Disadvantages: no product manual

"I recently purchased this scale and I like it so far. The scale appears to be accurate and as another reviewer mentioned its great for weighing in 1 and 2 pounders or big boy lunkers.

One thing that caught me offguard was that the default unit of measure is (or at least for me) was Kilograms, without a manual it took me a few minutes to figure out how to switch to pounds. Heres how:

Hold down the button to turn it on, immediately after double tap the button, then press it again.

I'm not 100% sure those are the official instructions but it worked for me.

cheaper & more accurate, May 8, 2009
By weighnmafish

"I've used both this 50lb mini scale and the 15lb pro guide scale both by rapala and this 50lb mini scale is almost dead on, while the pro guide model is off by about two ounces."

weigh 'em in, April 15, 2009
By shakeybasser from maryland

"what a great little scale to put to rest all those stories about how big that lunker really is! clean digital readout with auto shutoff after 15 min. so you don't wear down the battery. you can turn it off manually, too. a nice way to keep track of those hawgs you reel in."

A Real Keeper!, February 7, 2009
By goodrat79 from upper peninsula, michigan

"Great size, accurate, and water resistant. All great features but what I really like is it has three different settings for weight. You can weigh real hogs because it goes up to 50 lbs. and you can amuse the kids when they catch those under a pound pan fish. Its compact so it fits every where. I wish it had a light up display but for the price, I can live with it. The only disappointment is when I forget it at home."
