Default E-Tec LiPo Question!

I have what may be a dumb question. I have an E-tec 11.1V 1200mAh LiPo pack with 2 leads, 1 is pink and the other is blue....Which is Pos, and which is Neg????? I am guessing blue is Pos but I am just not sure....Anyone?
Thanks

Take a volt meter and touch the wires put the + to the blue and if the meter does not read minus then you are right.

Still, use a meter. The pack assembler could have made a mistake, and connecting the battery up backwards can have catastrophic results.

You haven't lived until you've experienced that burned electronics smell.
