Your Source For The Best Scales For Weighing Wrestlers At Tournaments

This site sells and services Digital Scales For Wrestling Tournament Weigh-In's

As technology advances and pressure for lower price products takes over the market, newer products take over the industry. Sometimes permanently, other times temporarily. You can still search and find a rare used wrestling scale or see the website that promotes used wrestling scales for sale but generally it's tough to find too many places that are offering those products. We thought it would be a great idea to compare one of the industry standard items with one of the newer items.

Befour PS-6600ST Portable Wrestling Scale vs. Detecto Apex-AT Certified Fitness Scale

Befour claims to be the nation’s top-selling Sports and Fitness scale for the past decade, the “Take-A-Weigh" is renowned in sports that require precise weight measurements on the go. The PS-6600 ST is the "Gold Standard" for team sport weighing needs - also great for home use, athletic training, and weight management. This scale can be taken anywhere and precisely weigh anything up to 500 lbs. to within ± 0.1 lb. Convenient, repeatable, accurate, and rugged, the PS-6600 ST is everything a portable scale should be.

“Super Tuff" ST platform features one-piece cast aluminum construction that is lighter, stronger, and more durable with safe rounded corners and a recessed, non-skid rubber mat. “Plug & Weigh” cable system connects the platform to the console with a standard USB cable. Should the cable ever be damaged, replacement takes only minutes and can be easily done by the scale user.

The PS-6600 ST is powered by either its internal rechargeable battery or through a wall outlet with its AC adapter. The powerful rechargeable NiMH (nickel metal hydride) batteries are environmentally-friendly, provide more weighings per charge, plus keep a charge longer than ever when not in use. Put the scale away charged at season’s end and it will be ready for action next year.

Meanwhile the Detecto APEX-AT digital portable scale is the leading athletics industry scale on the market due to the NTEP certification, fitness-themed keypad, economical price point, low-profile 17 in x 17 in platform, and quality construction (made of American and global components). The APEX-AT features a 600 lb x 0.1 lb / 300 kg x 0.05 kg capacity, remote indicator for versatile display placement, Body Mass Index (BMI), integral carrying handle, wall-mount or desktop mounting bracket included on the indicator, and two-year manufacturer’s warranty.

The NTEP certified precision makes them ideal for wrestling, boxing, MMA and all types of official athletics weigh-ins. The textured platform surface helps provide non-skid traction and user safety while weighing. An optional carrying case is available. This is a great replacement choice for those of you who liked the old Rice Lake 600 x 0.1 lb certified fitness scale that they used to offer many years ago.

Below is a detailed comparison between the PS-6600 ST and the Apex-AT certified scale. At a quick glance some of the key differences include the fact that the Detecto is NTEP certified. It also has a 600 lb capacity. The scale is also a little heavier than the lighter weight PS-6600 ST scale. So if you're going to be doing a lot of traveling, the Befour PS-6600 ST is around ten pounds lighter. The power choices are different. The Befour offers 110VAC and rechargeable battery as a standard. Meanwhile the Detecto offers battery power as the standard choice (12) AA batteries. You can also get the optional Detecto AC Adapter.
