Hi All
Really having a problem with the tiny blue resistors.
Black, Brown, Blue, Violet all took the same to my tired old eyes.
Results - various amounts of smoke - not good!

Was wondering if someone has a circuit and source for an Ohm meter using a PIC that has a multiple 7 segment display output.

Idea is to <B>ACCURATELY</B> measure the resistor before soldering it in place. May prevent placing a 10 ohm resistor where a 10 M ohm one should go - caused big smoke and popping and I was rewarded with a flash burn.

Any takers?
Best wishes
