harbor frieght 11.97
I used it on a job (hp shutdown) side by side with a 100.00 tq wrench and came up with the same tq settings every time.

Run down to your Home Depot. They have a Husky 1/2" drive clicker rated up to 250 ft-lbs, for $65.
Quality is as good as Craftsman's 1/2" but the Craftsman is rated only to 150 ft-lbs.

I have both. I bought the Husky to torque the crankshaft pulley bolt.

250ft lbs for 69 bucks is a good deal!
my hf only goes to 150.
I think husky used to be made in the same factory as craftsman.
Not sure if that is still true.
Anyone have any experience with kobalt brand tools?
