HX711 Load Cell - How to Use with Arduino

In this video we will go over how to use a load cell with the HX711 load cell amplifier with an Arduino Nano. We will learn about the basics of the load cell and HX711, how to connect to Arduino, how to program in Arduino, how to calibrate, and we will go over an example.

I am getting NaN as an output after I calibrate the load cell. Any idea what the cause might be?

thanks for this video

Thank you very much for your video. I would like to do something similar, but I need 4 load cells for it. Do you know how I have to connect this to the HX711? I despair at this task...

Why did you edit out placing the box on the scale? Something seem wrong here

Yeah this is pretty suspect to be honest. I doubt this is actually working.
