turn it to the 150 scale and read off the 15 scale [the red one at the bottom]. whatever you get, multiply by 10 and that's your reading.

I thought there's only 10/100/1000???

click on 'view larger image' on that radio shack website.

Damn. I knew it. My eyes are playing tricks on me......

My bad. 😀 Time to go to bed.

So if it reads almost 4, that means it's putting out the correct wattage right? So I wonder why it isn't working........Hm.... well thanks guys (for those of you that helped) I know it's not that hard, but when you don't know how to do something...... Anyways, I'm going to be making a new thread you might want to see.......

what kind of reading do you get? if you're on 15 it should peg all the way to the right.

oh.. what wasn't working then? if it reads about 4 then it's probably 36-volts-ish. there's a huge margin of error because you can't get exact readings with a cheap-o VOM.
