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, you can touch both the top and bottom and observe polarity. If the red lead is on the positive, the VM will display a +V, if reversed you will see -V.

The polarity is not marked on the cells, but there's an indent at one end.

Is that the positive?
