The DYMO M2 Digital Postal Scale weighs envelopes and packages up to 2 kg without a trip to the Post Office or mailroom. Conveniences include a hold feature that locks weight display for ten seconds when the screen is obscured by a larger item, a tare function for accurately weighing items in a container, an automatic shut-off that prolongs battery life, and an LCD screen that displays the weight in easy-to-read digital format - in lbs/oz or kg/g. The M2 Digital Postal Scale fits on the busiest desk or stores neatly in most desk drawers.
