NEGATIVE

I also use fine stranded copper cable (not copper plated like some sell) and solder copper lugs, but with a side post battery and standard hardware. Lugs held like a cup in vice by flat end, heated with small torch to fill the cups to about 3/4 full, then put the cable in and finish soldering and hold the cable still while the solder cools to prevent a "cold joint". Batt bolts are bottomed in the battery, then the nut is rotated down to tighten the cable eye down.
