Hi Jamie
A lot of people manage to rename me Chris, so I'm assuming your query is directed at me!
The attached photo is from Halford's site. The scale is clear enough, but the indicator line is sunk a bit below the scale and the action is a bit jerky. I wanted it for head nuts and big end bolts, both of which I set to 19 lbs/ft. This figure is rather towards the bottom end of wrench's range. The clincher for me was probably no more scientific than that Britool is British (although where the tools are made nowadays I cannot say). To be fair I use Halfords quite a bit and their no questions asked guarantee which replaces abused sockets without demur is a boon. I believe their torque wrenches are badged Norbar product. They gave me my money back without question when I decided against their wrench.
