Several recent threads about oil screens has me thinking I need to invest in another tool - a torque wrench that is more accurate at the lower end of scale. To that end, seeking recommendations for which inch pound torque wrench to buy. What do you have and would you recommend it? I suspect there will be lots of different opinions, but lets hear them!

On the SnapOn:
• Accurate to ±4% clockwise and ±6% counterclockwise from 20% of full scale to full scale

Interesting - I did a quick look at the Amazon offerings and kinda kept moving when I saw the same specs but maybe that's the industry standard.
