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

Syntax, those are hell on batteries.
Actually, I found that my Shure gauge was good to the second decimal point, when I checked the setting using a "digital" gauge.

My shure is off by 0.1g. that is pretty good for an analog scale.

Shure is not even close to Winds ALMo1.

EBM, so what? I was just answering the OP's question. I don't see the value of your comments and I am sure others here will agree. I have the winds arm load meter too and the shure is off by 0.1g. Still makes a good scale!
