If you click on the pictures on the link it has a Video. It looks like its worth a shot. It cant be any worse then a Harbor Freight piece of junk. Id actually buy one if I didnt already have one, and it does inch lbs, ft lbs etc... Cant beat that, one purchase and you have tons of different uses.

I bought one (actually I bought the 1/2" and 3/8" ones) and it is pretty handy

To those of you who own these, how accurate would you say these are?

Even if they are 100% accurate, there will be people who don't believe it.

IIRC, the manual claims 2% accuracy, which I believe.

They are pretty cool little gadgets.

Harbor Freight already makes a 3/8" version

No. It only measures torque.
