Accurate and Stable
Built a small kitchen scale with the 5kg option. Readings are stable after warm-up. The frame is sturdy enough for light duty use.

Excellent for education
Bought this for a student workshop. Easy to demonstrate weight sensing principles. The 24-bit resolution is great for learning.

Decent but needs calibration
Out of the box, readings were a bit off. Had to spend time calibrating. Once done, it works fine. Support was helpful.

Good kit, minor wiring confusion
The hardware is solid. The wiring diagram could be clearer for beginners, but once connected, it reads weight consistently. Great value.
Q: Is this compatible with Raspberry Pi GPIO?
A: Yes, the HX711 uses a simple serial interface that works with Raspberry Pi GPIO pins using Python libraries.
Q: Does it require an external power supply?
A: The module can be powered via 5V from your microcontroller, but stable power is recommended for accurate readings.
Q: Does the kit include example code?
A: Yes, we provide a link to GitHub repositories with Arduino and ESP32 example sketches in the documentation.
Q: What is the smallest weight change it can detect?
A: Depending on the load cell capacity, it can detect changes as small as 1g on the 5kg model under ideal conditions.
Q: Can I connect my own 3-wire load cells?
A: Yes, the module supports standard 3-wire and 4-wire load cells. You may need to adjust wiring accordingly.
