miniature load cell fits my compact test fixture
Space was pretty tight on my test fixture, so I needed a load cell that wouldn’t take up much room. This button-style sensor fit in nicely, and getting it mounted wasn’t too difficult. I did take a little extra care to keep the force centered, since I didn’t want any sideways load affecting the readings. After a few checks with my test setup, I got it working as expected. So far, so good.
