Reversing light direction
 
Well, OUR light turns just FINE in either direction. <grin> Same speed, brightness, noise, etc...

Remember, unless you've been given something REALLY strange (and different from what WE were shipped), gumball lights are simply a 12V light bulb, and a 12V motor on a gear train, wired in parallel.

The red and black wires are simply a construction convenience so that if you wire them the same polarity, they rotate the same way. There's nothing "magical" about it, nor any mythical "mechanical or electrical preference" WRT it turning in either direction.
