answered... ;-)

I bought one of these -

and use it to calibrate my old click type torque wrenches every time I use
them. It does match the beam wrench I have, so I trust it.

Don’t buy a HF inch pound torque wrench. I don’t like the way they click
(or don’t). The click doesn’t seem to be very positive.
When I did the injector reseal on the W211 I needed a 1/4” drive torque
wrench that would do 7 inch-pounds. I got this one and was very pleased
with it:

Not quite a HF price, but the quality seems very good as was the accuracy
checked against a beam type wrench that has been calibrated.

Hmm, I might get one of the smaller ones. I've never had anything that
could deal with inch pounds. I've got 3/8" and 1/2" beam and a 1/2" clicker
that all work well. I think the beam ones are both Craftsman, the clicker I
got at a yard sale. I wouldn't trust it for anything truly sensitive but it
works for tightening lug nuts...

I saw an ad in Sunday paper that HF has the 1/4 3/8 1/2 click torque
wrenches on sale for $10 any size. I wonder if they are any good, seems
like cheap enough to have a set in the tool box. I have a pretty good
1/2" Craftsman I got years ago.
