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!

So I was curious and ordered one of the 0.9-60 Nm units by Suercup from Amazon. 72€ (about $83.50) delivered. Looks like a nice, well-made tool. Reading the instruction sheets was interesting though.
  One of the downsides of electronics is of course having to use batteries... The wrench does have a carrier for the 3 AAA batteries so it's very easy to take them out when you're not going to be using it. However the notice on possibly needing recalibration every year... hmmm. Wonder how far out of calibration it could get. Of course, who has calibrated their clicker wrenches recently? |
