Sounds like they stuck some diodes in there that always route the current the right way through the LEDs (like a bridge rectifier) |

T13-W6 White LED bulb 12VDC White 6-LED Wedge Base bulb measure 1 1/8 long by 1/2 inch maximum diameter (194/168 type) Non Polarized Now, I have to assume that being "non-polarized" means that polarity is not an issue. Why is this...........? --- End quote --- ahah! non-polarized means that the polarity does not matter. There are probably some diodes in there to keep the polarity from being reversed. I'll check mine, I think I have the same type from the same company. |
