Default Battery dying out, what is a worthy replacement?

Any suggestion? I may run some weak sound system in the car...like some cheap ampliefied Bazooka and at most a 200W amp for all 4 corners.

Yet, contradicting enough, I want a light and durable battery.

You mean DieHard?

The recommend CCA for Integras, according to Sear site, is 440. How much they weight?

Oddysey 625 is only 265A. So any major concerns? They are 13lbs

Are you sure the T1R, Dynabat and Oddysey and handle the sound system's demand?

Your sound system runs off the alternator's current - not the battery. If you are killing the battery - it means your alternator is too weak.

Are you sure? I saw on BM that it's a totally different battery.

I have had no problems so far running the car, starting the car or having a small amp.

I don't anticipate a problem at all. was only $99. Can be found cheaper too I bet.
