Battery talk

So, I bought a '97 Civic to replace my Echo. Battery is weak. Ironically, I'd just bought a battery (a good one, no less) for the Echo, but it won't fit in the Honda's little group 51 slot. So, that's a sunk cost.

I've heard about some of these lighter weight alternatives to lead-acid batteries, and I'd like to start educating myself before I need one for the winter. Point me in the right direction?
