Well shit. That makes sense.
Considering what I had to go through to find that, I guess it's not surprising I didn't pick the right one.
And that's just one of the two shelves of rectifiers. Almost none of the labeled either.
I actually looked for a little one like this, but I couldn't find any.
Is there some way I can tell whether it's a rec/reg or just a rectifier? All I was really looking for was one with 4 colors of wires coming out, but clearly there's more to it.

As far as I know, theres no way to tell by looking. Having 2 plugs is pretty good sign, but no guarantee.
The one you linked to is exactly like the one I'm using. It only uses 4 wires, and 2 colors. So wire colors and numbers is out the window...
