I have a few really old Craftsman wrenches exactly like you have. I checked them against a torque sensor on a machine at work and they were quite good even though at least one looked like crap.

I have used the absolute crap out of my battery powered inflator. I’ve inflated trailer tires a few times, my truck tire once, and my lawnmower tires probably 20-30 times. Plus it has an option for high volume low pressure which is great for all my toddlers pool toys in the summer. Can’t believe I ever left home without it before.
I have the basic Craftsman v20 one but it has served me very well the last few years.
I have a craftsman and it has never done me wrong. Not to mention lifetime since Lowes own craftsman now. It's a simple walk in and swap type thing. Mine is 1/2 drive and goes up to 350 lbs I do believe.
I bought a cheap one from the auto parts store... I then compared the TQ setting with a snap on one a buddy had. They were the same. This one will work... I have one.
I have the 1/2 version of the Craftsman its basically now permanently stuck at around 100 ft lbs because i can not adjust the torque on it accurately anymore.
Locking down my 1 tons lug nuts this morning with the Craftsman Professional 1/2" torque wrench, 130 lbs, then BOOM.
My friend bought a new craftsman a few years ago, and the first time he used it the frame exploded on him and the car fell. Luckily he was just jacking it up so he wasn't under it, but it's scary considering people usually trust craftsman stuff. It's apparently gone downhill.
