This might seem overkill to you but you know what they say you get what you pay for. I've had this torque wrench over 10 years. Adjustable from 50 - 250 lbs It's designed where you can set the torque and not turn it down after use. It also has a flexible head. Made in the USA and worth every penny to me.

That one seems pretty good. price isn't to high. Neither store had any torque wrenches above 150 so used the one I had. I will get a bigger one when the summers go back on. Not sure if its true, but I always thought it wasn't good practice to use one at the max settings. However in this case I'm not building a space ship, or torquing critical components. lol

I do like to only buy things once if i can, my calipers are Mitutoyo which was nice for rebuilding snowmobile clutches. And I agree you get what you pay for
