I know NASA gave us lots of "high tech stuff" but a scale based on vehicle attitude ???? Hmmmmm

I use a Shear Line scale but IF I bought that system I would take a reading while setting on a Cat scale. An accurate reading compared to the Cat (using the certified weight) then o.k. If it's appreciably off then I'd return it.
My personal preference would be to validate the product, the truck's computer, and the software that translates that to my phone. YMMV
