Compact design features a small footprint - ideal, when space is limited. Mettler JL6001-G/LA01 is a legal for trade class II digital scale that displays to 0.1g and is approved for 1 gram. There is a built-in RS232, so if you can connecting the scale to a computer or optional mettler printer.

If you're going to have a gold party, or if you'd like to buy and sell gold, silver or other precious metals, there are several essential items you'll need. One of them is a jewelry scale like a Mettler Legal for Trade Digital Scale. Weigh up to 6100 gram x 0.1 grams with a Mettler Toledo JL6001-G/LA01. NTEP mode features a less precise readability with 1 gram increments. There is a parts counting feature but note since the scale is LFT the smallest part you can count is 30d, which means 3 grams. If you try to count parts less than 3g the scale will display an error code.

The biggest selling point for the Mettler Toledo's JL6001-G/LA00 other than the prominent Mettler-Toledo name is this scale operates on either AC Adapter of four (4) AA batteries. We get numerous complaints from customers that buy the A&D EK-1200i since the A&D does not run off of standard batteries, but instead you must buy A&D special NiMH Battery Pack for an addition $160.00. Yep it is crazy in a day when you can go buy 4 - AA NiMH rechargeable batteries at Walmart for under $20 A&D designs their scale so you can only use their $160 NiMH Battery Pack.

If you are always going to plug your scale into a power receptacle you might want to select the EK-1200i since we get a lot of phone calls from people unable to follow the instructions of the JL6001-G/LA01 and configuring the scale. Please watch our video below "How to calibrate Mettler Toledo JL-602 (the JL6001 and JL602 have the same steps for calibration just different weights are used)" and this will give you an idea what you need to do to configure the scale. The EK1200i is much, much easier to calibrate and configure. While the JL-6001-G/LA01 displays to 0.1g the JL6001 is only approved for 1g. The EK1200i is approved for 0.1g and weighs up to 1200g.

If you are unable to follow instructions you should plan on calling a local scale company and expect to pay around $300 for the service call. Configuring a scale is not a warranty issue so any service call is something you need to pay for out of your pocket. The A&D EK-1200i is much easier to calibrate and configure and we also have a video on the EK1200i here for you to see for yourself.

So if you need a digital scale that works off standard batteries the JL6001-G/LA01 is the choice. If you will be plugging the scale into a power receptacle you probable should look at the A&D EK-1200. Plus the EK-1200i costs less money, has a 5 year warranty and easier to use.

If you are weighing smaller quantities then be sure to review the Mettler JL602-G/LA01 since you will lose weighing capacity but gain greater weighing accuracy.

Watch how the Mettler JL602 scale is configured. If you have problems following instructions we DO NOT recommend the JL6001 scale for you unless you plan on hiring a scale company to setup the scale. The EK-1200i is a lot easier Class II scale to calibrate and configure.

The video above is for the JL-602-G/LA01 but the JL6001-G/LA01 is very similar except for the platform size, weighing capacity & readability and the JL6001-G/LA01 comes with one(1) 500g calibration weights.

Please Note:

Mettler Toledo gem balances have long model numbers, and often times you see gem balances that look the same, but have slightly different model numbers.  Below we have provided a chart that explains what these different characters stand for to eliminate confusion.  When you purchase a Mettler Toledo gem balance from Precision Weighing Balances, we want you to know exactly what you are getting.

Seconday Mettler Toledo Display

Although the JL6001-GLA01 scale is legal for trade, if you plan on doing something like selling jewelry directly to customers in your store, then you are required by weights and measures to have a secondary display that the customer can see in real time. Another example might be if you've ever bought meat from a grocery store, you know that when the butcher weighs out the meat, you and the butcher both have separate displays as the meat is weighed. This scale is legal for trade, but it is NOT "legal for direct sales" unless you buy the Remote display with backlight, cable length 6 feet for $99.00. FOR THE REMOTE DISPLAY, YOU MUST HAVE A METTLER SCALE WITH AN RS-232 INTERFACE.
