I just ordered a standard ohm reader from U.S.A. Ohm Readers, and I was wondering if anyone has one, and can give me some info on it. Thank you 
U.S.A. Ohm Readers?

I have one. Its very easy to use. It takes 2 AA batterys and has an on/off switch.
For resistances above one ohm, it reads as you would expect. A 1.26ohm build says "1.26".
For builds between 0.100 and 0.999, there is no decimal point. A 0.475 ohm build will read "475". A 0.189 ohm build will read "189".
The decimal point comes back for builds below 0.100 ohm. So a 0.035 ohm build will read ".035".

Thank you, I was curious to how that worked. Is it somewhat sturdy?
It seems decent. The battery compartment slides on and off and its made of plastic. Try not to drop it. I think it does have screw holes if you want to add a screw or two to hold it together.
I'm on my second one, the version with the improved 510 connection. They are good, but like any other plastic prone to breakage when dropped. I noticed there isn't as much hot glue in the newer version so hopefully that means they are a bit sturdier.
I just received mine this morning, and I'm pretty impressed. It seems sturdy and well-made. Thank you though
