Coil polarity?

23 Jan 2019 18:16

Hi gang.
My new coil from Z1 came in today. Very fast service, I might add.
There are no markings on the coil to indicate polarity. Do these new coils not matter which is ground and which is positive?
It's the DynaCoil 2.2Ώ dual output coil.
Any help is appreciated.

No polarity needed, they work in both ways
