What a wonderful offer. CDI doesn't look like a well known brand

What a great deal. The CDI doesn't look like a well-known brand, but it says "CDI, a snap-on brand" right on the box. The fit and finish are very nice. feels like a quality instrument. The included calibration sheet was a great touch. definitely makes you feel like you got a lot more than what you paid for. I have no way of testing the accuracy, but if the calibration sheet is correct, it's much more accurate than advertised. I was a little nervous about ordering this because one spec sheet says the max torque is 250 in-lbs and the other is 250 ft-lbs. I definitely needed it to go 200+ ft-lbs, so I was nervous to see what the real story was. It turns out it can handle up to 250 ft-lbs or 3000 in-lbs! The case is pretty decent too. My only complaint would be that you can't store the wrench in the lowest position you should have. The internal dimensions of the case are a bit small, so you end up screwing the handle down to about 60 ft-lbs before it actually fits in the case. If I really wanted to, I'm sure a few seconds with a utility knife would give me the space I needed. Will definitely buy again. I will definitely tell everyone I know to buy it if they need it.

Pros
  • Easy to read laser engraved dial
Cons
  • Not bad but...
