Honda Battery

The best battery in the OP's situation is an EFB group 51R.

Quote from Japanese battery maker Yuasa which makes traditional flooded, AGM and EFB:
"EFB batteries will provide 270,000 engine starts, compared to 30,000 starts from standard flooded product."

EFB batteries are now being factory installed on some new vehicles in the USA.

They are hard to find, but Rural King does sell them.

Ditto.

Is there a west coast distributor?

You can get EFB batteries at VW or Audi dealers, you will need to research what part number fits your car though

I replaced my 3yr old Walmart 51r to an AGM group 35 last winter. It would not start if it sat over the weekend in -25C. Work DD. I would fully charge it and after 6 charges in 2 months I switched.
Engine fires up instantly.

It cost be $30 for the odessey tray and a Amazon battery bracket.
