But what's even dumber than printing them backwards is that they went ahead and installed them anyway! :Clap:

x2 :)

I had some like that I'd kept just for the strong aluminum they were made from,
instead of throwing them in the metals dumpster.

Then there was another style that was only printed on one side anyway, the back
side was plain ribbed extruded aluminum.

Could do that, I guess, but who's got the right stuff? :)
And would it stick as good as the original does?

A lot worse waste of money than those were thrown in the dumpster. :/

Like a pallet of 1/2kva transformers because the guy ordered 480v instead of 600v.
They made good battery chargers hooked up backwards and ran through a 30a
bridge rectifier tho. ;) Made several and gave all away except for one.
