TrueCarat weighs up to 500g at 0.01g resolution, then shifts to 0.1g resolution above that, so you get a precise number whether you're weighing a single stone or a handful of scrap gold.

For gold, coins, and most jewelry pieces, yes. 0.01g means you can trust the reading to a hundredth of a gram, precise enough to catch a light chain or underweight scrap. Very small gems may need finer resolution.

TrueCarat runs on standard batteries (not included) and uses auto shutoff to cut power between weighings, so a single battery goes a lot further than scales that stay on full time.

Yes. TrueCarat switches between six units, including grams, carats, ounces, troy ounces, grains, and pennyweights, with a single button press, so you can price a stone in carats or scrap gold in grams without doing the conversion yourself.

That's usually a sign of a cheap sensor drifting with air currents or temperature shifts. TrueCarat holds a stable reading on the same item, weighing after weighing, so you can trust the number you get.

Any scale can wobble in a direct draft or on a shaky table, so set TrueCarat on a flat, stable surface away from fans or open windows for the cleanest reading. Once it settles, the number holds steady until you lift the item off.

Yes. TrueCarat covers both gold jewelry and gemstones from 0.01g up to 500g, so it handles a scrap gold chain, a ring, or a loose stone in one scale. For melee diamonds under a few points, you'll want a finer scale built just for that.

At just 10.5 x 12.5 x 1.5cm, TrueCarat slides into a bag or pocket, so it's ready for a flea market find, an estate sale, or a gem show without adding bulk to your day.
