Please help identifying these flats

Hi,

 

I need your help. I have two sets of flatwound strings that came with the basses I had bought, but I have no idea what they are. 

 

They both have red silk on both ends, however the string on the right is a darker red (burgundy? not sure). It's hard to capture the exact colour with my phone. Also, the string on the right is completely smooth, where as the one on the left is more coarse. 

 

From the research I have done, the one on the left looks like a Rotosound or a Thomastik string. The one on the right - not sure. Maybe someone can help :) 

 

Thanks!

Rotos have coloured ball ends. So that’s not it.

the left does look more like a Thomastic.

The right - no idea!

Thanks for your help! I didn't know about the coloured ends on the Rotos, I have seen pictures without them. Hmm...
