No worries... I own the same wrenches too. I do agree with Greg N. that you need batteries handy when you use the tech wrenches. I also find that there not as repeatable as the torqometers.
Not on a 928, but I was doing a torque up on some main caps last night. For convenience I started with the Techwrench but finished with the Torqometer. While both were out, I compared the two for fun and the two wrenches varied by 3-4 lb-ft. on a 60 ft. lb. torque. Hmmm... I may send the two into Snap On and see what the report back is, but I suspect the Techwrench will be the wrench more out of calibration, given past experience with each wrench design.
$0.02
