Grassroots Motorsports did a solid test on a cheap digital (like, 10-20 bucks), stick-style, an expensive digital, and an expensive analog (liquid-filled sweeping arm).

They found that even the cheap digital was better overall than both analogs, especially when temperatures vary widely.

Me? i use this one personally:

Has a nice, handy trigger for releasing pressure steadily and when you release it, it immediately checks the pressure again. Very nice!
