This is almost physically painful to read.

Before I rant off, let me link to a good resource for learning about electricity: http://amasci.com/miscon/whatis.html -or- http://amasci.com/miscon/elect.html

First, don't buy electronics from Amazon (or anything from Amazon really) buy from a reputable source like Digikey or Mouser.

Second, please don't try to explain electricity if you don't know what you're talking about. There are enough misconceptions about electricity (see amasci links above) without adding more noise and half-baked understanding.
