Wheeler fat torque wrench

Hi guys,
Has anyone one had experience with the digital wheeler torque wrench? Is it worth getting over than the regular one?

I'm looking to get a torque wrench, the digital one isn't a lot more expensive but I'm slightly dubious of cheap electronic stuff....

Thanks
Mark

Thanks Kenneth,
So you find the standard one reliable & consistent... easy to use?

I'd stay away from the digital ones. Batteries leak and go flat. Mechanical things just work😆 and as long as you look after it. Keep it lubed and keep it untensioned while in the box. I'm guessing it'll last you a lifetime. Have a read about the different types available in Nathan's books. I think Wheeler do it with a kit full of different screw bits as well.
