12v plug polarity ?

Post by Victor Meldrew » Thu Mar 27, 2008 11:37 am

Finally got my heat troller sent over from the good ol USofA...

The original came with a fitted 12v adaptor. The replacement just has the wires.

Which one on the plug is the positive?

I could hard wire it in and may end up doing that eventualy but just wanted to throw a plug on for quickness so I can have the heated jacket working for the drive down to Donny.
Well it moves... might as well make the most of it....
