Stylus Force Gauge

Anyone have experience with the newer digital stylus force gauges? If so which ones and recommended over another?

Have been using the venerable Shure SFG-2 since Noah built the Ark.

Getting up in years now, weak eyes, shaking hands all the crap with gaining wisdom, or so I think.

Anyway let me know if any of the analog mavens are using these newer Digital devices.

Thanks

I don't know about others but the one I have eats batteries like crazy. I think there is something strange about the power circuit. This is the same one that Sorasound sells.

The best gauge is the WINDS ALM01 good to 100th of a gram.

What, exactly, is "best" about an $800 gauge that's less resolving than gauges which cost 90% less?

The profit margin enjoyed by the seller is best, obviously. Other than that, what am I missing?
