weight scale

I have a Berkley scale I got from Walmart about  1 1/2 years age.  Used it 3 times.  Went to put the batteries in ( new ones ) .   It won't fire up. CK'ed the batteries ,  full charge .   Junk.
Don't buy the  Berkley   Model #BTDFS50-1.   Just a public service  note guys.

Actually I have a Berkley Tech Digital fish scale.  One of the best product I've used.  I think I bought mine from Gander Mountain/Outdoors.

Sounds like a good reason to purchase one of these:

They must not make them like they use to.

I've had scales from Berkley and Accu-Cull.  Seems like 3-5 years is about what you can hope for in my experience.  If you only used your 3x, maybe email Berkley and see if they'll replace it?
