We do ship to Canada via the USPS, but unfortunately due to the increased shipping costs we can't include it in the current special. It costs us an extra $26 to ship to Canada, so it would be $125 (not including any duties or taxes that the Canadian Government might impose). If you are interested, you can send me a PM and I will take care of it for you.

Sorry that I missed this. Our warranty is industry standard: 1 year from date of purchase, 90 days for calibration. Our repair / calibration facility is located in Chicago in case anything does need to be done to the wrench.

I'll give it a try, can't have too many torque wrenches around. I'll be able to compare it to my Snap-On ones.

For the Canadians, this is a great deal. I got mine from an ebay vendor and paid much more.

BLMW,

The wrench looks like a great product at a better price! Could you please tell me the length of the wrench? I ask as I'm wondering if it will fit into my carry on as I would have it shipped to my AZ address.

The wrench is 22", and the case that it comes in is about 23.5"

"Engineers in East Texas" ??

Where is this actually made? I cannot not watch the video at work, but I searched the site. I don't see any indication on your website, the fact that this is not easily identified is of concern.

Anybody that runs comps on this, I'd be interested, since the last time I checked, these were over $400.

Note: I'm going to start a thread on tools.

The ratchet and the steel components of the wrench are manufactured in Taiwan, and the electronics and assembly are done in Malaysia. Our repair / calibration facility is located in Chicago in case anything ever needs to be done to the wrench.

Do you have higher torque rating wrenches? Better accuracy ones?

I couldn't see any mention of angles. I quess this can't measure rotation angle? This is important feature as it makes life easier in engine builds.

It doesn't appear to have that option and if they come up with one that is in this price range they will make a killing. My last one cost almost $600.00.

It is something we are looking into. We are also developing a small unit that will attach to the handle of any breaker bar / ratchet and will measure angular rotation.

Sorry I missed this earlier. We currently only have the one wrench. We are working on a full line, which will go up to 1/2" - 250 ft.lbs and down 1/4" size. Should be available mid-late next year.
