Yeah, I usually try to remember to set it at a low torque before storing.
I’m also not too concerned about accuracy, more concerned with consistency.
Also wished I had a wrench somewhere between my 1/2” ftlb wrench and my 3/8” inlb wrench. Sometimes have a torque setting that’s right at the high end or low end of the other wrench.

It kills me watching tire shops or other shops jumping on the torque wrench's when doing wheels up.
