Quest for better ratchet for tight space



I am not very happy with craftsman's ratchet wrenches.
The 1/2" ratchet is so sloppy, it require almost 15-18 degree 
( or almost two clicks radius, of 36 tooth spline ) turn to 
just click once.  

I found FACOM ratchet has 72 tooth spline, that's twice
of craftsman's.  And because it is precision made,
To click once requires just one tooth turn, that's only 5 degree.  
What's more, they are not much more expensive than craftsman.       
$39.95 for FACOM's in Griot's Garage vs. craftsman's top line
wrench of $34.99.
