Full Wave Star Trek Rectifier

When I was first learning about amp building and was introduced to diodes and rectifiers, the standard square full wave rectifier just bothered me. Just one of those things, like some people like red, I like blue. :cool:

and I had an idea about rearranging it so it made more sense to me. When I drew it out, I was sorta amused by its similarity to the star trek federation emblem....

Presented for posterity.....

Edited: In my own defense yesterday was the last day of a very nasty bout of covid...

Your + and - wires are backwards. ;)
I thought so, but I looked at an online pic and thought I had it right, lol, you know having just gotten over a NASTY bout of Covid yesterday I can blame *any and all mistakes* on the dreaded BRAIN FOG. I'll fix it after this cup of coffee is gone and I have some breakfast....(y)

MAN it feels good to not feel horrible. That was a bad one, came down with it on freakin' Christmas day.... Sixth time I've had it....

EDITED: Ok, fixed it! Thanks @Robert
