Usually there's a `button' of sorts at the positive end, even for
cells advertised as not having
Great question Joe.
Not sure what indent represents. However, the negative (-) end is flat
with no protrusions, and forms the side of the battery as well. The
positive (+) usually will have a protrusion (button) which is
electrically isolated form the bottom/sides.
If you have a volt meter,
Just measure the voltage - if the red wire is on positive, you'll get
some positive reading,or else a needle pinned to the left if red is on
negative (with a digital MM, you'll get a negative voltage)
