Measuring differences of less than 1 volt isn't easy without some kind of test equipment. Honestly, I can't think of anything that would be easier than buying an absurdly cheap digital multimeter and testing them one by one.

I just use my trusty multimeter

u/SrSkippy · 3 pointsr/HomeImprovement

Get an outlet tester. Use it on every receptacle affected by the work including those in other parts of the house that might be on the circuits directly affected.

Get a multimeter. Use the AC testing function on the part that shocked you. Connect the red wire to the right most socket on the meter and put the probe and where you touched that shocked you. Put the black wire in the center socket on the meter and put the probe in the ground pin of a nearby receptacle. If you get any constant AC voltage over 1V, you have an issue with the power supply within the dryer (most likely).

Also use the multimeter on your outlet the dryer is fed from. You should put the black probe in the ground, and the red in each of the three (or two if your dryer is older) other holes in that receptacle. You should get two of them that measure 120V AC, and one that measures 0 AC and less than 1 V DC. Then measure from one hot to the other and just confirm you get 240V AC. If you get these values and you saw a voltage when testing the inside of the dryer, the dryer is the issue. Anything else means the wiring is borked.

The $20 you spend on these will be less than 1/3 of the cost of hiring an electrician to come out and even think about the issue.

It could also be static buildup inside the dryer caused by a loose or severed grounding strap inside. Try to connect a wire from the inside to the carpet/floor in your home with an insulated wire if all of the above comes back normal - don't try this first in case there is an AC voltage issue...

It looks like people have mostly got you started here in terms of supplies. In terms of tools though, this is what I keep in my rebuilding stuff (linking to Amazon just because its easier):

  • Small screwdriver set OR Hex set OR a combo set. Which one will depend on the RBA you get, but eventually you'll probably find yourself with ones that have Phillips and Hex screws.
  • Butane Torch. You can get this same one on Fasttech for $4 if you don't mind the shipping time.
  • Wire cutters, either full size or micros
  • Pliers, I also have a set of channel locks accessible, but not in my normal kit, mainly to try and get my Bombshell Stinger apart
  • A generic desk light or something like helping hands can save a lot of headaches.
  • Cheap multimeters can be found from $5 - $20
  • Exacto knife because knives always come in handy at some point (rule #9)

    Other generic stuff:

  • Toothpicks (great for wrapping coils around)
  • Cotton swabs, cotton balls and paper towels
  • Bic lighter
  • Scissors for cutting wick (I use the wire cutters, but if you have micros, 3mm wick might get messy/frayed)

kanthal in bulk

edit: also a multimeter 2ndoption if you have nothing to gauge the resistance it will be needed

u/salamastre · 2 pointsr/electronic_cigarette

This is a good one at a great price, specially if you have amazon prime.

Well hell. that blows.

Trying link again


Also...when you get back from the store, see this

u/The_High_Life · 2 pointsr/HomeImprovement

Well they certainly aren't capped, that's not good. I would get a voltmeter and check if there is power going to it. If there is power going to it you need to figure out which breaker its on before you try to cap it. If its live and you touch the wires together it could throw the main breaker for your entire house or catch on fire. Once you know the power is off you can cap the other wires that aren't, cap each wire individually if you don't want to figure out where they go.

u/Soupy21 · 2 pointsr/electronic_cigarette

Basically any of them that look like this: http://101vape.com/meters/170-ohms-meter.html

eBay probably has the least expensive variety. Some builds are better than others.

Or this voltmeter: http://www.amazon.com/Digital-VOLT-Meter-Voltmeter-Multimeter/dp/B005EK3NRS/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1395144871&sr=8-3&keywords=ohm+reader

u/Gneubs · 2 pointsr/electronic_cigarette

An adequate digital multimeter can be had pretty cheap, here's one for 8 bucks. MVP2, or iTase VV V3 mentioned below, will do the trick. But if you ever want to get into mechanical mods you'll want the voltage function of the DMM.

u/NeuroToxic · 1 pointr/electronic_cigarette

I guess my multimeter is less accurate than I would have hoped. I touched the leads together and it read 0.5 ohm. Good tip on subtracting that from my atty reading. This is the multimeter I'm using, can't say I would recommend it now. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005EK3NRS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2DORKNTNGX8YY

u/Spongi · 1 pointr/electronics

Quick question, is this multi-meter pretty much the same as the one you linked? I just bought it a week or two ago.

I looked at solder supplies on amazon recently and the reviews all over the board for every item. With so many companies hiring 'professional' reviewers + idiots doing reviews it's hard to make sense of them anymore. Do you have any recommendations? I'd be using it to both remove existing solders and making new ones and I'm on relatively tight budget :-D

u/Mavflight09 · 1 pointr/headphones

Literally the cheapest multi meter on Amazon...

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005EK3NRS/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

​

I probably expected too much of it to be honest. (And my own knowledge)

I'm fascinated though, people breaking out their Oscilloscopes, Function Generators and other doo dads.

u/LisaMarie79 · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

I like the SouthWest They would make cute socks! It is $1.99 and you get 164 yards of it. Oh and I used to play online golf years ago.. My Player name was Happy Hooker (I didn't play well and my ball would always hook to the right). Voltage Meter $7.82 free S/H This would have came in handy when I got shocked by a bare wire 2 days ago lol!

u/scratchP · 1 pointr/EDC

**best product to me recently Multimeter

u/MidnightRider77 · 1 pointr/electronic_cigarette

It'll do what you need, but there's no reason to order a MM from china. You can get one from amazon for just as cheap that'll perform just as well.

EDIT: Actually that one is rated from 200-2M ohm (unless that is it's settings, covered below). So maybe not that one, but I doubt you'd have any issue finding one that would work (I'm betting the 200-2M is implying two different settings though and it should work). This one seems to claim 0.8% accuracy at 0-200 ohm (I'm guessing that's what the specifications are implying, horrible description though) Often times a 200 ohm setting implies that it is the max it can read though (on that particular setting, their will be a 200ohm and a 2M ohm setting for instance on that first one), not the minimum limit. Amazon just isn't very good with descriptions tbh.

u/captainboygirl · 1 pointr/AskElectronics

reason78,
i'm no pro engineer and would use a meter just for small projects. So I guess a cheapo meter will be sufficient. On Amazon, I see $10 meters:

u/openist · 1 pointr/vapeitforward

This is good to know I was wondering if a cheap multi meter would do the trick, I'm not great at electronics stuff so something like this would do the trick?

u/sistom · 1 pointr/RBA

I also ordered two Sony IMR 18650, 30AMP, 2100mAh, Flat Top.

Would this be sufficient: http://www.amazon.com/Digital-VOLT-Meter-Voltmeter-Multimeter/dp/B005EK3NRS

?

u/Kenny__Loggins · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

This or this

One is a multimeter which will be sooo helpful since I've decided to start messing around with electronics. The other is a book that I've been wanting to read because it's written by Coheed and Cambria's lead singer and is about the story their songs are about. I couldn't choose between them!

I just ordered components to make my first box mod, but have done small electrical work before.

Helping Hands will make your life much easier, may not be necessary if you only intend to make one mod.

a decent digital multimeter is required, as is a Soldering iron.

A Breadboard is very useful to ensure everything works as it should, before you have it all finished and put in the case.

those are all I can think of right now, sure there are others people use regularly though
