Watched this earlier today and thought there was info that is relevant to us. I watch these guys off and on for impact tool testing and have found their methods to be pretty good.

Points of relevance were what happens when a click type torque is left at a high torque setting for a long period of time. The effects if socket extensions on actual torque. And....drum roll...the effect that anti-seize has on actual torque.

I am a big fan of anti-seize on any fasteners that I may have to deal with in the future. Especially fasteners that are subject to dirt, grim and water. For me this includes lug studs on all of my cars. After watching this I am going to continue to use anti-seize but really watch torque wrench settings.
