I just purchased a gempro 250 for around $120 shipped and like using it much more than the scale I paid $350 for. I recommend it.I would like to purchase a new Gempro , but which model?

The model you want is the Gem Pro 250. It has a 0.02 grain resolution and is a pretty good scale for the price of $149:

The downsides? It doesnt' have serial port and it's slow to update. So when you're trickling manually for the last 0.01 grains you'll have to wait 3-4 seconds for updates.
The next step up is a FX-120i. Currenlty the exchange rage with Canada is good so it can be purchased for around $550 here:

It's a force restoration scale so it updates very quickly. It has a 0.02 grain resolution and also has a serial port which allows for expansion modules, like Adamj's stepper motor trickler.
The next step up from that is a Satorius scale which is a lab grade force restoration scale. They start around $750.
Satorius start at $750 last i checked.which sartorius? there are a ton.
also i use the gempro. my issue is it 'wanders' a bit. its plugged into a line conditiong UPS with balans but it still drifts. i dont trickle, i use tweezers and have gotten pretty adept at using them. i would like to replace it with a better scale though.
FJIM, I saw them last week at that price and was going to order but decided to wait until this week and bam the price went up. Snooze you lose i guess.
