I need a new torque wrench as mine was a very old, cheap and nasty one from my teens which needs chucking.
Having looked around there are manual clicky ones, digital ones, 3/8, 1/4 and 1/2 drive. Ideally I'm looking to buy just one that will do everything I need, but concede I might need a delicate one and a "bit more ooomph" one for head bolts and wheel nuts.
My main needs are that it will survive being dropped without screwing up it's calibration, reverse ratchet/head and good build quality so I won't need to buy another one in my lifetime.
Whats the consensus out there?
