Questions about Rapala RHCDS50 High Contrast Digital Scale ,Black, 50 lbs.

Can you buy just the clamp

Answer: You can find the clamp at tacklewarehouse

Answer: Not that I know of

Where can I buy another gripper

What is the Bluetooth for?

Answer: Mine doesn’t have Bluetooth

Answer: I was wondering the same thing. It has the Bluetooth symbol on the screen but can't seem to find any information about it

Answer: Why are you asking what bluetooth is for on an Amazon listing for a fishing scale? If you need to know what bluetooth is for, I suggest doing a google search. You will find all the information you'll ever need about bluetooth...... Good luck!

Answer: I do not know. It was a gift

Can this scale be adjusted for weight variances?

Answer: You can set tare weight but, cannot be calibrated.

Answer: Yes. You have to deal with the play button. It is difficult to explain in writing but there is a YouTube video that shows

On my unit, temp is shown in Celcius. Does anyone know how to set the scale to Fahrenheit?

I am looking for a scale for the trophy catch program. I need to photograph the fish and the weight together. Is the display bright outdoors?

Answer: IMG_8797.JPG

Answer: I like the scale, but is not durable. I dropped it one time and I had to get a new one.

Answer: Yes it is and is very accurate.

What does the bottom number mean? This shows 14 pounds

Answer: It shows the weight stored in the memory location indicated by the square box (2) in the picture that is in the link that came with this question - top number is the current weight. This is a nice unit - I really like mine.

Answer: The bottom number indicates the total pounds of fish you have weighed and saved.

Answer: Total of fish caught. Think it holds 5 or more catches at a time

Answer: It stores prior up to eight other catches in memory and that is the largest in memory. Max

Answer: Yes

Does it come with a case

Answer: Nope. It does not come with a case.

Answer: No case

Answer: No

Answer: No.

Answer: No

Answer: No mine did not

Answer: No

What about water proof

Answer: This scale broke a week after I bought it. Would not recommend it.

Answer: Rain?Maybe, but I doubt it would survive a dunking.

Will these grips adequately hold a 20-40lb salmon and hold up over time?

Answer: Probably not, I got it for bass and have replaced the clamp twice already with much smaller fish. I think the scale would be fine though.

Answer: 32 lbs for sure! Not sure about 40 haven’t caught anything that big yet lol

Does it feature peak hold capability?

Answer: I have weighed 5lbers with it no problem

Answer: Not real sure about that but mine works great I love it

Answer: Don’t understand the question.

If you caught a 30lb fish, how would you hold this scale? Whats the loop at top used for?

Answer: holding it

Is it waterproof?

Answer: Don’t know mine broke in 3 days.#CorksUnderGuideService

is this scale waterproof or at least water resistant? What is the warranty on it?

Answer: It was a gift

does it come with a warranty? If so, how long is the warranty? Is it waterproof or water resistant?

Answer: 12 months mail in warranty. The scale is water resistant NOT waterproof. I would expect in fresh water you might be able to dry it out if you sent it swimming - but i would not depend on that.

Why is there a Bluetooth symbol when you boot it up?

Answer: No idea - it does NOT have bluetooth

Bought the rcd scale from sweden, and i looked especially for the lip grip option, but i got the hook. i will not use this, can i get one separately?

Overpriced on amazon? so much for being a prime member. much cheaper on tackle warehouse.

what is the graduation/accuracy of this scale? 0.2lbs/10g?

Answer: It has both that you can select

Is there a way to adjust it? In case the weight gets off. Someone said in the reviews there’s was way off.

Answer: You can tare out the the weight very easily with the press of a button. I believe that is what the customer did not do which caused the weights to be off.

Anyone know how to use the bluetooth, and dont respond with "it was a gift" please

Answer: I bought one it broke 3 days later very cheap would not buy it again.#CorksUnderGuideService

Is it possible to buy the tiny fish grippers independently?

Answer: Yes. I have seen the grippers sold separately. I don’t remember where though.

Is the screen backlight for nighttime use or will it need to have a light shined on it?

Answer: Lights up at night.

Answer: Yes it does.

Answer: We think for sure It does but we have not night fished. It is really nice.

this scale has bluetooth, what is it used for?

Answer: Weighing fish no Bluetooth

Answer: There is clearly a Bluetooth symbol in the upper right corner that displays briefly when it’s powered on. Since it’s not mentioned anywhere in the manual nor on Rapala’s website, my guess is that there will probably be a newer (and more expensive) version coming that has Bluetooth.

Answer: I'm not aware that it has Bluetooth options

Answer: It doesn't have bluetooth.

Answer: Send info to phone etc

Product reviews of Rapala RHCDS50 High Contrast Digital Scale ,Black, 50 lbs.

A Scoggins Ga. : Super quality

Use this fishing . Good quality and easy to use.

kevin peters : Stopped working after one short use.

Took it out fishing one day and it worked ok other than being off on weight a bit. Next time out it won't give a weight for anything. I've fooled with it and gone through the instructions for 20 minutes at home and it's still not working. I was ready to toss it in the trash but my wife talked me into returning it. I would not recommend buying it.

Derrick Ard : Very accurate

Sent my unit to IGFA and had it certified. Very accurate and easy to use. Only issue, but not a complaint is remembering what sequence of buttons to press to clear out stored weights. Love the contrast color and it is very easy to see. the grip is a little on the week side, but it has been working ok. I highly recommend this if you looking for an accurate scale.

Amazon Customer : Great choice

Item was exactly as expected and works great

Ms Sheila : Easy Clip

Man I love this scale. Love the clip. It comes with a extra hook but the clip works so much better. Easy to read. When it came in I weighed a 1/2 gal of water & it was as close to what it should be I’m very pleased. The 1st fish I weighed was a 8.98 saugeye a friend caught.

Patrick Frase : Wont stay on all of a sudden

Bought this back in June for my bass tournaments and league events. It worked great and it was accurate for most of the summer. Now it doesnt work. Wont stay on. Keeps flashing at me. Of course its now past its return date and I cant get it replaced.

Made in China! Dont buy!

Amazon Customer : Pro's choice

Haven't used this scale yet, but fished with a top rated pro guide this summer and this is the scale he has in his boat. He could use any scale he wants, but uses this model. That's why I chose this, for my son's Christmas gift.

Brodie Speer : Great product easy to handle

Great product right out of the package

James Hinds : A little tricky at first

It's a little tricky to figure out at first but once you spend some time using it and getting to know it, it's a pretty sweet scale!

Amazon Customer : Great choice

MARK : Works great

Kindle Customer : Nice scale

Wish it came with better instructions but other than that it's great

bookguy556 : Good scale for the money

Accurate readout, packs down fairly small and the gripper is a nice addition instead of a normal gaff hook.

A Scoggins Ga. : Super quality

Use this fishing . Good quality and easy to use.

Lester Martin : That it can hold up to 8 weights

The equipment is great. Easy to store and use.

Christopher Daniel Bright : Great scale

Great scale of the price use it all the time in tournament fishing.

Works well. I like that it shows the temp and the 8 storage slots. I, also, like the fact you can replace the smallest weight (any weight) if you catch a bigger one.

Love this scale, hang it and used for a week of fishing with 10 people competing daily big fish! Easy to read!

Michael Roark : Works well. Small grippers

The grippers are a little too small and the screen is hard to read when wearing polarized sunglasses. Unfortunately mine are prescription I can't just slide them down.

David G. : it breaks

Fishing. It is not waterproof. So it stops when it gets wet.

Michael Roark : Works well. Small grippers

The grippers are a little too small and the screen is hard to read when wearing polarized sunglasses. Unfortunately mine are prescription I can't just slide them down.

JJ Johnson : Easy to read with options

The scale is more compact than I expected, and very easy to use. It's a little pricey, but definitely loaded with options to make it worth it. The screen is easy to read. It comes with two fish holding options, a lip clamp used in this photo and a gill hook. The scale is easy to zero and can record several fish weights. The metal loop at the top is also a bottle opener.

Amanda : Horrible

Package arrived cut open with tape on the back pieces were taken out of package.

Jack : Have to reset constantly.

Screen is not bright at all and difficult to see in the sunlight. Almost every single time I attempt to weigh a fish, it gives no reading. I then have to reset the unit at least once or twice before it starts working. Never buying this again.

Christopher Daniel Bright : Great scale

Great scale of the price use it all the time in tournament fishing.
