Those electronic scales that apparently measure BF....

How accurate are they?

Ive tried calipers myself, but can not get an accurate reading, everytime i take a measurement i get a different reading.

But my scales at home do that thing where they send out a current through your body and can measure you BF, what is the accuracy on these?

Cheers
 
The accuracy is so poor for someone who trains that I would not even use them to judge progress. At least if it gave consistent readings, you could just use it to know whether your bodyfat is going up or down.

If you cannot get consistent measurements with calipers, you should do some studying online to see how to use them better. I use calipers and I get consistent measurements. However, I measure in the same spots the same way every time I measure.
