This thing rarely budges off the $30 normal price at Amazon, but if you watch the YouTube "Tools Tested" channel (he loved it, and gave it a #1 rating -- just search for "Tools Tested" and "The Best 1/4 Torque Wrench 10 - 150 in Lbs"). Just for reference, 150 in lbs is 12.5 ft lbs, so this is for light work... like the type of work you might do on higher end bicycles, esp carbon fiber bikes. I love the fact it has a quick release (which you rarely find), comes with a blow molded case, has a 72 tooth mech, which is great for torquing in tight areas, and it even looks much nicer than one could expect from a $24 torque wrench.

Idc, bro - don't buy it. It's a great deal for those that need a 1/4 torque wrench, and I trust the testing from the YouTube guy at Tools Tested.

Although in the arena of companies with atrocious quality control, I'd probably still rather roll the dice with HF than Amazon, lol.
edit : that's for the 1/2
