Not just 5-100 ft-lb range, which is cool, but the gyroscopic conscious proprioception means that you can do torque+angle tightening all in one stroke, or in steps using the ratcheting flex head! No more counting flats and half-flats on the fastener heads, no more Sharpie marks, no more lame protractors. Sure, you can buy a lot of Sharpies and protractors for $400, but I'm not into this game to save money.

Check out the interchangeable-head style torque wrenches on page 2775 of the McMaster-Carr catalog. http://www.mcmaster.com/#catalog/115/2775/=jaopm
