It features an all-steel, powder-coated housing and a single 200 kg load cell that is temperature compensated for accurate weight readings across changing environmental conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1723\" data-start=\"1469\"\u003eThe scale measures up to 500 pounds of total hive weight and includes a 200% overload capacity for added durability. Weight data is recorded once per hour by default and can be stored for more than a year, with logging intervals configurable by the user.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2007\" data-start=\"1725\"\u003eThe BroodMinder-W5 is fully compatible with the Bees app and the MyBroodMinder platform, allowing beekeepers to view, track, and analyze hive weight trends over time. Power is supplied by replaceable AA batteries, which are rated to last more than five years under normal operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2237\" data-start=\"2009\"\u003eFor beekeepers who want full hive coverage, two W5 units can be paired together to function as a complete hive scale. The slim, weatherproof design makes the W5 suitable for permanent outdoor installation beneath hive equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2273\" data-start=\"2239\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"2273\" data-start=\"2239\"\u003eSpecifications (Manufacturer):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2324\" data-start=\"2276\"\u003eMeasurement capacity: 500 lb total hive weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2354\" data-start=\"2327\"\u003eResolution: 0.01 lb (5 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2401\" data-start=\"2357\"\u003eLoad cell: 200 kg, temperature compensated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2447\" data-start=\"2404\"\u003eData storage: Hourly readings for 1+ year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2498\" data-start=\"2450\"\u003ePower: Replaceable AA batteries (5+ year life)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2556\" data-start=\"2501\"\u003eDimensions: 2\" × 2\" × 17.25\" (50 mm × 50 mm × 438 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2594\" data-start=\"2559\"\u003eConstruction: Powder-coated steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/blog.foxhoundbeecompany.com\/live-bee-hive-scale-and-sensor-data\/\" class=\"in-cell-link\" target=\"_blank\"\u003elive hive scale and temperature data\u003c\/a\u003e, as well as more info about our hive setup\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWatch the BroodMinder-W5 \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RvAgZR-f4Hg\"\u003ekey features.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSee our other \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxhoundbeecompany.com\/collections\/brood-minder\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBroodMinder Hive Monitoring Supplies.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Foxhound Bee Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47288973099260,"sku":"BM Hive Scale","price":226.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/1648\/7234\/files\/IMG_0108_result.png?v=1769018192","url":"https:\/\/proudlibertarian.com\/en-de\/products\/broodminder-w-digital-hive-scale","provider":"Proud Libertarian","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
