Anybody else have one of these? The Stanley Rotator 3/8 drive ratchet.

I have checked 'em out at Wally World before, thought I would finally get one.

Could come in handy when you need to get to a tight spot with no room for traditional ratcheting.

i laughed at that :haha until the day came when i needed to unbolt the torque converter on a Sprinter :censored: .....there is no way to get a wrench, just enough room to get a ratchet with a semi deep socket (shallow doesnt reach) however there is no room to swing the handle more than 1/2". i bought it, takes me 5 minutes to unbolt/bolt the converters now. :wrench

How much torque can you get out of that thing? That'd be my only concern with a design like that. Some sort of slot to stick to a bar through the end to get more torque out of it would be pretty slick too.
