yeah, i found pretty much the cheapest DMM i could find at radioshack. Its a shame they wont just put a AA on it or something and be nice to us. As for the iron, the reason i got the 15, was so that i wouldn't melt things. I didn't think to try using a little new solder to melt the old. Ill try that once i replace my lost solder tonight.
