I read the fine print. It says Battery not included. I know I can read.

EG/DC/EK models coming soon.

"Battery cables not included, customers will have to custom route cables to fit their specific cars.

*Odyssey Drycell Battery is sold separately. **For EF and DA models, we include a dry carbon cover that about as bling as it gets
."

yea close to 300 for shizzle! But I would love an Odyssey battery.

I Am into the sand things too. That battery looks damn close to the same Dimension as a Yamaha Rhino battery but with more cranking amps??

PC680
Small 680 cranking amp battery with metal jacket and SAE automotive terminals.
Also available without the metal jacket for low temperature applications.
Battery measures 3.11" wide x 7.27" long x 6.67" tall with the metal jacket and weighs 15.4 pounds.

Recognize that the reserve rating is small, so storage time with computer draw can discharge the battery in a few weeks. Ideal for Street Rods up to 5.7 liter V-8. Can be mounted in the glove box flat on its back - only 3 1/8 inch high.

Excellent starting battery where high reserve capacity is not required.
Great lightweight racing battery for shedding extra pounds.
Can be mounted upright or flat.


Straight from the dealer ^^^

battery relocations will make the battery life shorter, btw. the battery uses more juice transfering the power to the engine bay. i just got an odyssey from battery world and they made me aware of this. but i will sacrifice $200 for a little bit cleaner engine bay.. and better cranking amps.

Relocating the battery should not severely limit the life of the battery.

Get a write up from EF Honda for how to relocate (and where you can run wires) and get the proper hardware. Make sure you get proper gauge (thicker the wire the less drain). I relocated my battery to the trunk (PC 680) - ran 2 awg wire along the passenger side of the car there's a clip there that fits it perfectly. I also added a 2 watt solar trickle charger to the rear shelf as I do park the car for long periods of time. I also fashioned my own mounting bracket with a $8 strip of aluminium.

I am getting the P680 but the mount location is in a place that I have never seen someone mount. As soon as it arives I will update.
