Review on πŸ”§ CPS BlackMax BTLDTW Adjustable E-Torque Wrench by Richard Jarvis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The right tool for mini split rigs

Now I know why these mini connectors are prone to flare leaks. This is because installers do not use these torque wrenches. If you tighten and increase the torque, the torque value will be halved or lower. I was confused at first, but I immediately realized that this was a clear sign that my flash was not making a good connection. It "felt" like a solid good connection in flare adjustment to be honest, but I'd never know of my bad flare without seeing the numbers myself... the key is very good anyway. What I like is that it beeps as you approach your set point, and then the entire knob vibrates once you reach your set point. Very cool. love it

Pros
  • ADJUSTABLE: View "peak" and "track" torque data with audible (tone), visual (LED), and tactile (vibration) "torque alerts" to detect over-tightening Prevent advance warning when approaching or exceeding predefined torque settings
Cons
  • Out of fashion
