Need ideas for a new torque wrench

Hey guys, I'm in the market for a new Torque wrench. I had a cheapo and its had it. I'm looking for the best all a round Torque wrench I can find that would relate to working on my Bike. Any input on what to get and what to stay away from? Looking for a life warranty if I can, Craftsman, snap on. Should I go dial in or digital? I would really like to get a good one and be done with it, and help please.

any tool truck brand,if you use them a lot, prefer the click type too works everytime never worry about a dead battery. got a mac for my go to torque 1/2 drive. that being said for more generic non critical light duty got a harbor freight in in lbs 1/4 drive and 3/8 drive that seem to be holding their calibartion well for what I use them for.
