    Click type versus electric torque wrenches

    yeah the SO techangle has progressive lights and it vibrates and beeps when torque is achieved. it also has a setting that can compensate for different length extensions you might be using. you can also change between in-lbs, ft-lbs, Nm, and some other that i never use. the techangle grip is...

    Click type versus electric torque wrenches

    i prefer the electronic for more gentle work, like in an engine bay. and i love the angle feature that keeps track of your angle even if it takes a couple resets. i still use a clicker for torquing wheels and such

    Mechanics On Their Feet all Day

    I wear these on a daily basis, at work and home. I'm ~300lbs and these shoes support me all day, i don't have any back or foot pain. Of course my shop is kept very clean and there is no risk of stepping on nails. But in terms of comfort, they're high up on my scale.
