Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Powerbuilt 3/8" Dr. Digital Torque Converter/Calibrator - Precise Torque Control Tool (Model 940963) by Robert Helstrom

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works well - both clockwise and counterclockwise

Seems to work well. Accuracy when tested with my beam and click types. Also note that although the description and user manual do not mention the ability to measure counter-clockwise (for left-hand screws), measurements are taken in both clockwise and counter-clockwise directions. I contacted All Trade Tools regarding this and received a very quick response. The only reason the CCW direction is not mentioned is that it has not been specifically calibrated or certified in the CCW direction. But in my limited testing, it proved to be just as accurate in CCW as it was in CW. The only reason it hasn't gotten 5 stars yet is because I haven't used it for so long. While this worked fine on a pair of bike bottom brackets, I'll come back when I have more data.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
