What makes the Hanneman Balance special is its Direct Reading feature, i.e. no calculations, worksheets, or math are required - just read the Specific Gravity value that is printed directly on the Beam where the Counterweight assembly rests. Specific Gravity is a very indicative property for a Gem or Mineral, so that measuring for it will substantially narrow down your list of candidates in an effort to identify your unknown stone.

Below this size the measurements are inaccurate. **Q: There's something wrong with the balance I tried for many stone the reading has been incorrect big different from the correct** A: We included the silvery colored, cylindrically shaped Aluminum Stick with the Balance, with known SG of 2.70 which is stamped on the side of the Aluminum. Measure the SG of that. You should get 2.70 or very close to that, which confirms that you are using the correct measuring procedure. If you do not measure close to 2.70 SG, then compare your steps with the exact steps, in the exact order that we specify in the instructions. If you contact us again, include the measured SG you got with the Aluminum stick. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice and easy to use. *by L***N on June 7, 2023* Easy to use.
