So, a torque wrench for someone too lazy to spin the handle to their required ft-lbs/in-lbs?
By that logic, isn't all efficiency really just laziness? When does it become productivity or quality control?
Eeehhh I prefer the OG style of torque wrenches myself, I don't even like the digital ones. They all eventually die but the digital ones seem to die quicker. It ain't efficient if it's broken. And to that effect, if it ain't broke, don't fix it, the clicky ones work fine. Bonus: they go clicky clicky.
I mean, for an automated assembly line sort of deal with not me involved? Hell yeah whatever, robots and shit. If I'm wrenching? Clicky clicky.
OH and yeah, clicky has no wifi, thus to ransom it you need to physically steal it and send me a letter with letters snipped from a magazine and tell me where the hollow tree in the park is to do the drop, whole different animal.
If you wan to put it into simple words… yeah.
