bar type are plenty accurate and inexpensive. disadvantage is that you have to be able to view the gauge & be careful to keep the handle centered on the pivot (not hard).
recently read some engine builders' threads on this topic elsewhere: click type require periodic re-calibration. one guy called a non-calibrated click type a "really expensive ratchet."
one poster wrote that he buys only Snap-On torque wrenches because they come with lifetime free calibration.
