How many balance the ruder after installing a tailbeacon on a Piper PA-28-140. The installation instructions say to comply with the manufacture requirements and Piper does require rudder balancing. How can you sign off the 337 without re balancing the ruder to make sure it is within limits, even if it is within one gram of weight of the old light. Also seems like people forget to add it to the equipment list.

Clearly there must be some lower limit on the amount of weight which matters. Would adding a microgram require rebalancing?
How accurate is the rebalancing? I can see how it would take some effort to word a more accurate regulation which might conform with the physical limits. So easier to just say any change requires a rebalance...
