FIRST weigh in scales

Does anyone know the brand and model number of the exact scales the inspectors use at FIRST events?

I assume they are a standard off the shelf brand pallet/floor scale by some company but I have never really payed enough attention during inspection. I am looking for a floor/pallet type scale but don't need a huge one with a capacity of 5000 or 10,000 lbs. and would prefer one of about the size used in FIRST inspections with a capacity between 800-1000 lbs and the best accuracy possible. In other words I would rather have a 2' x 2' 1000 lb capacity scale with a 0.1 lb accuracy than a 4' x 4' 10,000lb capacity scale with 1.0+ lb accuracy. My brief internet searches have turned up a lot of the later but few of the former and then I was thinking of the FIRST scales and wonder if they wouldn't be just about right. Any inspectors out there know the brand/model of scales FIRST uses?

Thanks.
