1. A portable torque measurement and notification system, comprising:
- a sensing device having a first end adaptable to connect with a first torque applying device and a second end adaptable to connect with a second torque applying device, the first and second torque applying device to apply torque to an object, the sensing device comprising;
one or more sensors in communication with the first end and second end of the sensing device to produce load responsive measurements of the at least one of the first and second torque applying device;
a first electronic circuit to receive the one or more load responsive measurements and to transmit wirelessly at least one of the group consisting of the one or more load responsive measurements; and
a wireless device operable to communicate wirelessly with the sensing device, the wireless device having a means for receiving at least one of the group consisting of the one or more load responsive measurements.

Abstract
A method for measuring torque measurement and generating a notifier, including searching for one or more wirelessly pairable load applying devices for applying a load to an object; displaying to a user those paired one or more load applying devices; responsive to selecting one of the displayed one or more load applying devices, receiving one or more of the group consisting of load measurements transmitted from the selected load applying device; and generating a notifier based on the proximity of the one or more of the group consisting of load measurements and torque measurements and a target value.
