The Craftsman reads from 5-80 ft lbs. with 3% accuracy while the PI reads 20-100 ft lbs. with 4% accuracy. Both are rated accurate down to 20% of their full scale or 16 ft lbs. for the Craftsman and 20 ft lbs. for the PI. The Craftsman needs to be turned down after use but it has an easier to see display window. The PI has swivel head and a 20 ft lb. higher top end. Any suggestions or recomendations?

I own a 1/2 inch Craftsman digitork wrench. While the display window looks great when it is new, after a few years and a few skuffs it becomes harder to read. Other than that I like the Craftsman digitork wrench.
