Negative. You need high enough torque they work fine. You need at least twice the rated torque for proper operation of a torque stick.

Both my 760 ft·lb high torque and my 250 ft·lb M12 Milwaukeee will work fine with torque sticks. I watch the pin hole on the socket to watch it stop that's how I know it's done (though with the high torque no need it's done by 3-4 taps off or on)
