There is now a device to solve this conundrum digital luggage scales.
A digital luggage scale is a small gadget that allows you to weigh your luggage without the needing you to perform complicated maths when attempting to balance the different parts of the luggage on a traditional scale.

Because of its small size the machine can easily be packed into the carry-on or suitcase when you are getting ready to pack for the return trip. Most travellers especially holiday makers tend to bring more back than one the outgoing trip, so a digital luggage scale will come in handy to prevent luggages being overweight.
