Hi William; the gauge on the BTBRV Tongue Weight Scale # BTBRV44FR displays weight in 50-lb increments. However, the first mark on the scale is 100 lbs so that would really be the minimum for it to register on the gauge and measure the tongue weight of your trailer. Below that and you're guessing somewhere between 0 and 100.

Hey William, how did things go with the tongue weight scale once you tried it out on your trailer? Knowing how it performed at the lower end of the range could help others checking lighter loads.
