Battery ODYSSEY or OEM Honda
I use a 790cca Odyssey fmj in the summer and just bought a 590cca battery from Autozone and have a 4 year warranty and it seems to perform better than the oem battery that was killed by my bag setup.

I've got two of those now (in the Group 65 monstrosity size) and they live up to the promises especially still delivering at low states of charge. I left the parking lights on my truck on for 6 hours and it still started. I'm quite happy with them and would now recommend them over the Mexican-production Optima.
i did the same thing and i couldnt be happier.
Im running an Odyssey battery in my Corrado. Its new to me so I cant give long term feedback on the battery. But the battery doesnt have any lips on the bottom so it doesnt mount into the stock battery spot. Im still trying to figure out a way to mount it properly. Personally it cranked my car up faster then my old optima ever did. I like it and its got a 3 year warranty.
Same here. Mine is about half the size as Tachy's. Have mine in the spare tire well. No problems, other than giving it a charge when the car sits. I run a 400w amp too.
I have this one (or one very similar to it; forgot the model #). I have a metal sleeve/box that is slides into that is bolted down. Had it for over 3 years and it's still going strong.
I'd like to say Ive had good luck with the Odyssey but it has maybe seen 100 kms in the 7 years since I put it in so no comment on the quality of the battery.
I used Odysseys PC-680 on other cars, particularly on Evos. They weight about 15lbs and they free up spaces dramatically but the reliability is awful. I went through 3 of them once. They will start the car with a little bit of difficulty but don't try to start the car with the A/C , the radio etc because they can't.
I ran an Odyssey mini battery in my weekend car, any longer than 2 weeks without driving would drain it. I wouldn't really recommend a mini battery for a daily, if your car doesn't start after 2-3 tries, you might be stuck lol.
