Digital Torque Wrench adaptors

Has anyone used one of these?: https://www.amazon.co.uk/KKmoon-Electronic-Torquem...

or something similar? My tools got nicked from my lockup a couple of year ago and I replaced pretty much everything; but borrowed a torque wrench which due to lockdowns etc. I only just returned at the weekend My socket set is Halfords Pro so I was just going to go to Halfords and get the 60 to 300 nm one and buy a cheaper low range one. The digital adaptor would cover a lot of the stuff I want to do however and is quite a bit cheaper.

I have one from Halfords
I like it, and so far it's stayed in calibration.

I quite fancy one of those too. They do look quite bulky though if being used as alternative to a conventional torque wench

This is what I think too, no good in a tight space where a normal clicker will usually fit.

I'd also be slightly worried about an extra set of connections which make it wobblier, and more likely to accidentally disconnect.

I have a Kent Moore item that does torque or angle. It's pretty good.

I bought one to check the calibration of my existing snap on (very old) click torque wrench. Same one as in OP and its been more useful than I thought.

Not a replacement but certainly complementary I would say. Particularly as it may be bulky but often i'm working in a space where i can't get the length of my manual torque wrench in, e.g. under the car, and my regular ratchet will fit.

Thanks for the replies. I have ordered one and I will see how it goes.
