Easy to Interface
Library support is excellent. I was able to get readings within minutes of connecting it to my ESP32. Very satisfied with the purchase.

Good value
Does the job but calibration takes time. Once configured, the sensor readings are consistent. Good price point for the functionality provided.

Wiring unclear
Documentation could be better regarding wire colors for different load cells. Once I figured out the wiring, it worked fine.

Compact and Reliable
Small footprint fits everywhere. I used this for a pressure sensing project and it handled the load cell interface without any issues.
Q: Is there a library available for Python?
A: Yes, there are several open-source libraries available for Raspberry Pi and MicroPython environments.
Q: How many wires are needed for the load cell?
A: Typically 4 wires (Red, Black, White, Green). Some cells have 5 wires; the fifth is usually a shield ground.
Q: What is the maximum sampling rate?
A: You can select between 10Hz or 80Hz refresh rates via the code configuration.
Q: Can it measure liquid weight in a tank?
A: Yes, if paired with appropriate load cells under the tank structure. The module reads the strain gauge output.
Q: Does this support 3.3V logic levels?
A: Yes, the module is compatible with 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers. Ensure common ground is connected.
