Yeah, I'm old, tired everything hurts, etc....

My back is staring to bother me after using my 18" torque wrench. There are many available that are 24" which decreases effort only 33%. I am looking at this one, it is almost 30" so it would reduce force about 40%. Anyone have any better suggestions?

Pretty low tooth count on that Craftsman. At 30” you run out of runway pretty quickly in tight places. If it’s just for lug nuts, you have all the room in the world, doesn’t matter, but consider more while you’re shopping.
