I looked all over for a low torque wrench. The only one I could find under about $175 was a Craftsman, click-type, for about $70. The beam types are great for the mid and larger torques, but there is not much to choose from for the small bolts/torques. I am very happy with this one, as I already had the Craftsman 3/8th and 1/2 inch beam torque wrenches. I was very concerned about stripping the smaller bolts in the aluminum engine. It would be a pain to try to fix them.
