The resistor being 10K to 100K Ohm.

OR does the voltage need to be applied directly to the TX and RX on the kindle with 1.8V.

Quick Answer on your first question.
Are you trying to fry your kindle?
It must be the 1.8V.
Anything larger and you are likely to burn out your kindle.
Also get a soldering iron designed for small electronic work.
