(I cut and pasted this from another forum I posted in)
I just went to Radio Shack. I showed the guy the picture of ^ that green resistor(from a different forum) and they didn't have one that big. They had no 300 Ohm resistors. What they did have was a 5 pack or 150 Ohm 1/2 watt resistors for 99 cents. Well I figured I could waste 99cents on an experiment. I twisted 2, 150ohm resistors in line and hooked them up.... Guess what happened????
It worked! I
now have a working volt meter.
