The Ultraship 55 is the culmination of years of development. It is designed to be the ultimate scale for home, office or small business. Whether you're weighing foods, postcards, letters, parcels, envelopes, mailing tubes, padded packs, small boxes, medium boxes or even large boxes, this scale has been designed to suit your needs perfectly.

Its dual range design allows accurate reading of small letters in 0.1 oz increments, while larger packages are read in 0.5 oz increments . You no longer need one scale for letters and another for boxes. This scale is an asset for any home or office.

A long list of features include:

New features include attachable letter & envelope holder, mailing tube holder, stainless steel tray(optional), patented detachable faceplate on long 2-foot flex cord, HOLD feature, programmable auto-off feature, extra large "easy press" buttons, improved accuracy, improved durability, more modes, digital auto calibration, and longer battery life.

• Precise 0.1oz / 0.005lb / 2.0g / 0.002kg readability
• Hold function: stores the weight of an item on the display after the item has been removed
• Detachable Faceplate to allow easy reading when weighing large boxes - or remote mounting
• Programmable Auto Off Feature
• Displays weight in Pounds, Pounds:Ounces, Grams or Kilograms.
• Full Range Tare/Zero function
• Digital Auto Calibration
• Runs on batteries or optional AC adapter
• Lifetime/30 year international warranty
• Dual range design allows for precise weighing of letters and boxes

The UltraShip 55 is the upgraded replacement for the aging - but popular LS-30 scale.

Over the years we learned that the pop-up letter holder/mail tube holder of the LS-30 tended to break if overly stressed. We tried several times to reinforce it, but consumers would always find a way to break it. So, we gave up on the pop up cover and upgraded to stronger professional type attachments instead. We designed a deluxe letter holder that can hold both small individual letters and large padded envelopes. It has a telescoping design so it can accommodate letters of every size. Next we designed a mail tube holder that cradles mail tubes - rather then crushing them as pop up covers often do. Our Tube and envelope attachments cradle items like a mother holding a baby, rather then the damaging compression technique used by older pop-up covers.

Next we sought out to address improvements requested by our customers. We were often asked to add a HOLD feature to our scales. People complained that they would put an oversized box on the scale and couldn't read the display. So, we added a HOLD feature that holds the weight of an item on the display (simply put the box on the scale and press HOLD, then you can remove the box and see what the weight was on the display). This sounded like a perfect solution - until we put some test units into the field. We received constant complaints about the hold feature because it makes for very uneasy weighing. First you must realize that in order to use the hold feature you have to either have the scale on a table top or crouch down on your knees to press the HOLD button. When you're dealing with 30lb or 50lb packages it's often not viable to have the scale on a table. Second the HOLD feature is basically just a "rig", and it forces people to take extra steps during weighing (a big complaint was that it slowed down the weighing process). Basically we learned that just a HOLD feature was not enough for our customers.

Thus we realized that the only option was to make a remote display. Although it costs more to produce, we realized that it was the only way to make this scale "The Ultimate". Of course some times people don't want a remote display (they tend to take up a lot of room on a desk, people can trip over the cord or the cord can get tangled). So, we designed the world's first remote display that can also be locked back into place with the cord fully stored. In short, the new Ultraship can be used just like the LS-30, the display is fully locked into place and cord is completely tucked away and hidden. But when you need it, you can unlock the display and move it remotely away from the base of the scale up to 2ft. This new invention is patented in the USA and EU.

Next we addressed another common complaint by making an ADJUSTABLE AUTO OFF feature. Many people complained that they didn't want their scale to turn off during use. They wanted it to remain powered on all day. However an equal amount of people want their scale to turn off automatically if they forget to turn it off themselves. So, we added an adjustable auto off feature that allows the consumer to decide if they want the auto-off feature or not.

The next improvement was in the area of Modes. Our customers had specific needs, and we needed to accommodate every postal / shipping company. Thus we made the new Ultraship read in Pounds:Ounces, Pounds, Grams, Kilograms. This is very important because in the USA some people need their scale to display 15 1/4 pounds as "15lb : 4.0oz" and some people need it to be shown as "15.250lb". Likewise for Kilograms some people need 11.5 kilograms to be displayed as "11.500kg" and some people need it to be shown as "11500g".

The other improvements of the Ultraship are all about accuracy and durability. The UltraShip is a professional scale - featuring true digital auto calibration and temperature compensation. You will notice that it is powered by a professional 2-part AC adaptor or C batteries. Why "C" batteries? Because another common complaint of the LS was that it "ate" batteries too quickly. With C batteries the Ultraship will run 5X longer on battery power then the old LS-30. Also the Ultraship-30 reads in precise 0.1oz / 0.005lb / 2g / 0.002kg increments at lower weights (for letters and envelopes) and 0.2oz / 0.010lb / 5g / 0.005kg increments at higher weights (for boxes and packages). The LS-30 reads in less-precise 0.5oz increments at higher weights and other shipping scales simply don't have the more precise lower range of the Ultraship. Note that USPS standard for measuring letters is 0.1oz - so if your scale reads letters in 0.2oz you are NOT within the USPS letter standard.

The Ultraship is the standard by which all other shipping scales will now be judged. There is simply no better scale for your home, office or small warehouse then the UltraShip.
