Re: Inexpensive torque wrench for power panel lugs?

Has anyone tried using the torque driver settings on an ordinary cordless drill for tightening some of these connections? Many teams already use a cordless drill with a 3/8 or 1/4 inch socket drive adapter for speedy assembly/dis-assembly work. This would not be as accurate as a real torque wrench, but if it worked it would be handy and low cost.
