Which one of these is positive and which is negative, the one that is longer by the look in the bulb looks like it should be negative, but people say that longer is "always" positive. Anyone able to shed light? I got this from OZNIUM.

It is indeed a fact, long one always positive. And easy to check out. Use a resistor and a 9 volt battery. One way will not light, the other will as it is a diode......

Oh ok, because the one above is red, and the blue one is the opposite of that, the one that should be positive, is longer. I just thought its weird that they're different.
