A side terminal battery (10) and method of making same is shown and described. In particular, the terminal (34) includes an electrically conductive plug (24) disposed within an externally extending boss (16). The plug (24) does not extend into the battery (10). Rather, a riser (38) is welded (40) to the plug (24) through an aperture (14) disposed at the base of the boss (16). The terminal (34) is mechanically crimped (42 and 44) to further ensure the leak-resistant soundness of the joint between the plug (14) and riser (38).
