The Pedro's unit you linked looks quite nice - much nicer than the one I have now. Might need to consider getting one of those myself.
Yeah, the Pedro Chain Checker II is one of the few bike-specific tools which is better and cheaper than the Park Tool analog. It even has a chain ring nut wrench on one end.

I also forgot to mention the chain whip. Without one, the cassette lock ring tool is not all that useful.
