Torque wrench?

I have an old torque wrench for 30 years, bought used, maybe a Craftsman, don't remember? This thing knows to grow to about 10' long when I am under the car. A bit cumbersome to use. In actuality, about 18". Anyone use those Amazon special, Chinese ones? Looking at electronic ones where the torque spec is dialed or keyed in instead twisting like ones I have. Its worn and dirty. I think I can't hear it click anymore. What is a good size you guys like for general use? I still can use this big thing for large stuff, but at most, I only need it up to about 120-140lbs for most suspension work. I'm cheap and this isn't something I use often. 100 bucks or below, maybe? Any thoughts?
