I used to use a cuisinart thermometer that had a simple dial scale-- 
pretty easy to use, sturdy, but a bit slow to get the last few 
degrees.  I recently switched to an electronic model by Polder that 
is quick and accurate.  It looks a bit like this one:

Seems to have an excellent battery life so far.

And my current scale is a small one by salter, electronic with one 
button for on/off/tare, and one button switching from lbs/oz to 
grams.  It is probably not very accurate for 5g of salt, although it 
does register differences of as little as one gram, so I still prefer 
to measure those very small quantities by measuring spoon.
