Why did I spend $600 on a new load cell for my crane scale?
Picked up a fancy digital load cell from a supplier in Houston last month. First week it was reading spot on but then it started drifting by like 50 pounds randomly. Called the company and they said it was probably a calibration issue from shipping. Cost me another $150 to send it back and get it recalibrated. Has anyone here had better luck with the older analog load cells or am I just unlucky?

Yeah did your load cell come from that place off I-10? My buddy bought one from them and had the same drifting issue within two weeks, ended up switching back to an old analog one from Grainger.

Drifting that fast sounds more like a bad install or wiring issue than the load cell itself. Maybe your buddy just got unlucky.
