Odyssey PC680 suitable for b18c7

[crobaa]

Hi guys, looking to purchase a new battery and relocate behind the passenger seat in my eg. The car has a b18c7. Is a pc680 suitable?

I called an Odyssey dealer in Melbourne and they told me that the PC680 was suited for my engine (R18A). I'll be getting one later. I'd surmise your engine would be no more demanding on batteries than mine ?

I wouldn't think it would be any more demanding but the current battery is 330cca and the pc680 is 220cca

As long as your engine is not giving trouble when starting it should be OK.

Is that taking into account the extra 1-2m of cable run too? It's gonna sit directly behind passenger seat on the floor with as short a cable run as possible

This battery is fine.

Just don't overly load it when the engine is OFF. ( radio / fan lights etc)

It will drain quick smart. But Keep that in mind , it's fine.
