Bumblebee battery on insightcentral.net makes a great 8ah battery that is better than any OEM Honda can come up with. They are made from the same batteries source Honda used! plus 13 years worth of NiMh tech advancements. In fact, I think Honda has bought from him on the rare occasion they haven't figured out a way to weasel out of warranty claims. In addition, it offers more than a third more usable capacity than the original (5.5Ah versus 4). There are a few others that do good work too, and all use the same battery source. In this case, stay away from Honda. They will stick you with an overpriced and/or refurbished pack.
