I use it the most, unless I need inch/pounds. Glad it came through the pawn shop.

Bought one years ago, I really like it, although it really goes through batteries.

I've used these a lot. The kits we have at work consist of the wrench in your pic, 1 smaller 3/8 drive and a nut driver. I like how the actual torque value is displayed when I stop.

Be cautious of the end cap where the batteries go. ... Mine was our of warranty and had to have it repaired twice. .....worked well when it did though....

I have 7 of them in my overhaul shop at work. The apprentices seem to like them.

The digital interfaces that go between a regular ratchet and the socket are quite accurate when new. I have had several qualified to be within 3%. And they are reasonably priced.
