I just got out of work and got home, and now there's a new problem. I still have to get the new soldering iron, but in the mean time every flexiwatt strip I put the probe on stops working. I came in and the one strip still does not work, but now the working strip the probe was attached to also stopped working and the strip without the prove was at 115 degrees. So I moved it to the working strip and taped it down without touching the clips or anything else while I checked out the strip that stopped working.

The clips were still completly secured, so I waited to see if it would just start working and nothing. So I switched to the opposite end of the tape and still nothing. Then I realized after about 30minutes that the strip that had been at 115 was down to 78. Now none of the strips work- they all worked fine until I would attach the thermostat probe, then they completely stop working.. I'm leaving now for Home Depot for the soldering iron (and hoping their still open, I forgot its Sunday), but I just find it peculiar that they all worked until I put the probe on the strips..
