A heated charging cylinder is also nice. I use a scale to check the fill of the charging scale, since it's easier than using pressure (temperature) and level.

But I also use the scale for non-AC work. For example, to suck some transmission fluid out of a car and replace it with new. I weigh the extractor before and after, and know exactly how much came out.
