I picked up a "Pittsburgh" brand Harbor Freight torque wrench model #0808 (3/4" drive, 50-300 ft-lb) this evening for $79. Something I noticed at the store; there was one remaining slightly older model manufactured in August 2010 which is 33 1/2 inches long and comes with a certificate of calibration (+/- 4%) and a warranty card. The newer model 0808, same specs, 3/4" drive, 50-300ft-lb, also on the shelf had different packaging but was about 5 inches shorter in length than the older version and did not come with a warranty card or calibration certificate?? I bought the longer one that came with the paperwork.
Any thoughts on the difference in length between the two torque wrenches with the same model number and same torque range, but the newer version being shorter??
