I’m wondering what options we have for lighter batteries. My car originally had a 90 a/h ~60lbs battery which I replaced with a H6 70a/h and coded for a couple years ago. That dropped the battery weight down to about 40lbs.
Now my wife’s car needs a battery I’m thinking I could put mine into hers and look for something even lighter for my car.
I found this Odyssey which when I do the *approximate conversion* (CCA divides by 7.25) comes out to 45.5 a/h. I think I remember seeing in Carly that 40 a/h was the lowest capacity coding option so this would still be within the factory battery coding parameters. This battery weighs about 24lbs so saves 16lbs more lbs vs what I have now also.

There are SAE terminals which thread to fit this battery so terminal type isn’t a reason not to use it as far as I can tell.
Has anyone researched any options for lighter batteries?
