If you don't use the timing light a whole lot, like once a year for your tune-up, then the regular Craftsman light will work fine.
Now, if you're like me and your timing light is something that you use several times a week (tech school and side jobs), I would highly recommend investing in a digital dail-back timing light. These things make setting base timing and figuring out the advance curve SO easy. The RPM readout feature is good for doing tune-ups too.
Unless you're gonna use it constantly though, the $200+ price tag is pretty steep.
