nice! how do they compare the split beam torque wrenches to the the micrometer (og) torque wrenches?

I believe that model is the C3FR250F flex head (1/2" sq. dr/40-250 lb. ft.)
if the end doesn't flex, it's the C3R250F Rigid ratchet (1/2" sq. dr/40-250 lb. ft.)

I am unsure but I know it feels a lot more solid than my craftsman one.

My friend (mech engineer) set up a rig to see how accurate his cheap torque wrench was
It under tightened by 20%
