Does anyone have experience with this combo powder measure/ digital scale?

Would you reccomend it?

Does it have any competition, other than two-piece digital measure/scale combos? ( That I assume don't have the ability of the scale to feedback info to the measure )

I have one. It works well with all powders. Only drawback is you have to wait for it to warm up which takes about 20 minutes.

20 minutes!? I can wait 20 minutes but I wonder why? Does the damn thing have vacuum tubes in it?

Do you get the advertised .01 gr. accuracy?

The manual says you should allow the unit to run through the warm-up mode to"allow the precise electronics time to stabilize. The warm-up mode can be canceled, however, accuracy could be slightly reduced until full warm-up is reached." I have checked the accuracy with my beam scale and it is dead on and consistant.
