So my new charger and extra battery came today from myepack, the invoice says the battery is a "Sony US 18650 VTC4 2100mAh battery". I just went to charge it but it doesnt have positive or negative markings on the green wrapper, just a QR code and white sticker that says "18650 2100mAh 3.7V".
How do I tell which end is positive and negative?

It should look like this, positive end at the top with the crimp ring evident

I take it thats the crimp right in the bottom pic? Is it the black big or the three prong looking metal piece?

I was referring to the crimp ring (circumferal indent) on the outer casing directly above that black square print on the casing
