This is typical for American transistors. For European transistors such as the BC337, the flat face would be facing up. The LED&#8217;s cathode lead or flat spot is at the bottom, connected to the black wire and emitter lead. By the way, the black wire is held against the negative end of the battery by a button magnet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From my late watsonseblog.blogspot.com, 2011-06-02 2011 Jun 02 Make A Joule Thief Pictorial I&#8217;m attempting to make it simpler and easier to make a Joule Thief by using a pictorial diagram of a Joule Thief that&#8217;s, well, simple and clear.
