The brightest setting is first, then the middle, then the low, then off.

It’s supposed to be low, medium, high, off

I tried another brand and it works correctly.

Darn. Based on the title I was hoping I could use them in my positive ground MG. Settings is something else entirely. Polarity is about grounds and earth, neutral etc.

I thought that was the way they normally work? Haven’t used one in a while though.
