[QUOTE="RWeeks7mm, post: 2251734, member: 96651"] +1 for BallisticGuy! I have the digital. It eats batteries and always seems to be "Low" when I need it (guess I could be smart and remove the battery but that requires a small screw driver to remove the cover). Where you grab it to get a good grip is right where the hole for the beeper is and the beeping when you can hear it just doesn't seem reliable. Because of that you have to be looking at the display which always seems to be upside down (it is "conveniently" located on the very top). Finally, as far as I know you have to push the button for every .1 in/lbs (no hold the button) so if you want to torque your stock at 60 in/lb then torque your rings to 18 in/lbs it takes a lot of time. Long story short, do yourself and your sanity a favor and go analog. [/QUOTE]
