If you are looking at 7 ftlbs, I am guessing you are changing a waterpump.
Get a 1/4" one. 2 reasons. first, that is a low torque value and would be a the bottom of a 3/8" wrench and will not be very accurate at the low end of the range. 2nd, a 1/4" one will be a lot easier to fit in the area
the HF one is fine for occasional DIY stuff and if you search for coupons, they often are on sale for $10-$12
