Product description
The AWS Matchbox MB-650 from American Weigh Scales is a tiny 650g x 0.1g pocket scale shaped and sized like a matchbox. It packs a blue backlit LCD, six weighing units, and a flip-top cover that snaps off to become a weighing tray. Hosts at any of our El Paso Smoke Shops can walk you through it before you buy.
Matchbox size, real precision
At roughly 1.4 by 2.9 by 0.5 inches, the MB-650 hides in a pocket yet weighs up to 650 grams in fine 0.1 gram steps. The weighing platform is about 1.4 by 1.8 inches, and the flip-top cover protects the surface, then snaps off to work as an expansion tray for larger items.
Simple controls and units
Three buttons run the whole scale: On/Off, Mode, and Tare. Press Mode to cycle six units, grams, ounces, troy ounces, pennyweights, carats, and grains. The blue backlit LCD stays readable in low light. It runs on a single CR2032 coin battery, which is included, so it is ready to use out of the box.
For a pocket-friendly scale that reads to 0.1 grams and travels almost anywhere, the AWS Matchbox MB-650 is a smart pick. Check current stock at your nearest El Paso Smoke Shops location and pick one up in store.

Questions & Answers
How much is the AWS Matchbox MB-650 in El Paso?
The AWS Matchbox MB-650 is $27.99 at El Paso Smoke Shops. It is in-store pickup only, so check stock at your nearest location and pick one up at the counter.
What is the capacity and readability of the MB-650?
It weighs up to 650 grams and reads in 0.1 gram steps. That gives you tenth-of-a-gram precision in a body no bigger than a matchbox.
What units does the Matchbox MB-650 weigh in?
Six units. Press the Mode button to switch between grams, ounces, troy ounces, pennyweights, carats, and grains, so you can match whatever you are weighing.
Does the MB-650 come with a calibration weight?
No. The MB-650 calibrates with a 500 gram weight, but that weight is sold separately. Keeping one on hand lets you check and correct accuracy over time.
What does the tare button do on the MB-650?
The Tare button resets the display to zero with a container on the platform. Set your dish or bag down, press Tare, then add your item to read only its weight.
What battery does the Matchbox MB-650 use?
It uses one CR2032 coin battery, and it is included, so the scale is ready to weigh right out of the box. Keeping a spare CR2032 on hand avoids downtime.
Is the MB-650 portable?
Yes. It is matchbox-size, about 1.4 by 2.9 by 0.5 inches, and the flip-top cover protects the platform so it travels safely in a pocket or bag.
What can I use the Matchbox MB-650 for?
On the AWS Matchbox, it is a general-purpose precision scale for lawful weighing, including jewelry, coins, hobby parts, and small kitchen or craft items up to 650 grams.
Where can I buy the AWS Matchbox MB-650 in El Paso?
At El Paso Smoke Shops. We have 10 El Paso locations, so check store stock for the MB-650 and pick one up in store. Pickup only, no shipping.
How does the MB-650 (Matchbox Series) compare to other scales, and what is it best for?
The MB-650 (Matchbox Series) reads 0.1 g up to 650 g, which makes it best for everyday kitchen and food weighing, mail, and larger items, rather than tiny sub-gram amounts. In short, it is built for capacity over fine resolution, so a 0.01 g pocket scale is the better pick for jewelry. Match the scale's readability to the smallest amount you plan to weigh.
This is a general-purpose precision scale for lawful weighing only. You must be 18 or older to buy one, and we check a valid photo ID at the counter at any of our 10 El Paso locations. In-store pickup only.
