I just got this meter a few day ago, and don't understand what components etc. it is suppose to be able to measure. Could someone please fill me in? The manual doesn't tell unless, I overlooked that part. Thanks!

Place it on a hot IC? See how hot a regulator is getting?

...anything?
It's a thermocouple. It will measure the temperature of whatever you touch with it. Your hand. A hot IC. The room. Your bathwater.
