Battery SAMSUNG or OEM Honda
I called roadside and got it installed for 100 dollars 3 months ago.
I personally use Samsung 50S and RS50. The RS50 or 50XG are the optimal choice in my opinion.
Best upgrade I did for my fit was upgrading to a 51r battery. Just the other day I left my interior lights on all night and I didn't notice until I went to work in the morning, but it started up no problem.
I did the same replacements two weeks ago, it took about a week for the battery to recalibrate, definitely am seeing the improvements now.
I have gone through two batteries already. They seem to only last 3-4 years on this car - at least in my experience.
And the super small battery…
I drive a 2019 CRV and was thinking about a new battery, doing research man it seems like today's batteries don't last, I figured i got 6 yrs with a Honda so I stuck with their brand
That happened to me when the battery was dying. The Honda OEM batteries suck.
I did have to buy a new battery because the OEM was leaking, but other than that, the vehicle has been great.
Looks like I'm getting a battery replacement. Very disappointed in Samsung this year.
