As can be seen in the photo above, the two contacts on the top side of the star correspond to the + Led connection and the two contacts on the bottom side correspond to the - LED connection... or my Triple Cree Bike light is wired really wierd! :drool:

I'm just assuming the "+" is one side,and the "-" is the other and not alternate? Would be easy to get wrong otherwise.

Guys, you can see the outline of the + & - circuit paths even under the paint on the stars...one side is for + and the other is -...

You're right Ace -i do see the paths now that you point them out -totally not noticable when just eyeballing the star.

These came from Download from his GB
