Paul,
Am pretty sure "TARE" refers to a memory that keeps the previous weight so you can see the difference in the next weight.

So for luggage, you'd weigh the EMPTY luggage, and then set the TARE to zero. Then you'd weight the PACKED luggage again, and it would tell you how much the CONTENTS weighed. Of course, you could just (almost) as easily weigh it two times and then do the math yourself... <g>
I haven't watched your video yet (am at work - shhhhhh!), but how much did that scale cost?
Thanks.
Bob
