I have a number of low cost 2kg digital kitchen scales that 
I bought in an endline batch because they perform extremely 
well for the price. Extremely handy for small dynamometer 
torque arm use - and for weighing things.

I recently found that they are badly affected by the 
proximity of an operating GSM cellphone. Their display goes 
quietly mad running up and down and or sitting at random 
values. Remove phone from area and all is well again. Range 
of effect is up to about ?500 mm?.
