Discussion:
The built-in scale

The dealer basically tells me this is a novelty and really isn't accurate. What I'm trying to find out is has anyone found a way for this to be within 25 or 50lbs of accuracy ? If so, how ?

As far as I know there is no retrofit transducer available for factory systems. accuracy is only as good as the transducer and the systems ability to zero the scale.

There's a scale built-in to it. It's just not accurate or even consistent. My company is not looking to pay for another scale.

Take a look at Cascade Iforks. They are sold to be within 1% accurate.
