12 volt battery - GreenHybrid

I was looking around the Majestic Honda web site and noticed the Panasonic 12 volt battery (70D23L-MF) for the HAH has a list price of $451. Is there something special about this battery? When it comes time to replace it, I would have a hard time paying even Majestic's price of $338.

Nope. Just a stupid retail price, afaik.

Check the non-hybrid battery- is it the same one? Probably a different part #, but if you can find the specs we might be able to tell.

I went back and checked prices for batteries on V6 EX and LX Accords. They list the same model battery (70D23L-MF), but it's a Delco not a Panasonic. And the list price is $74. Unfortunately I couldn't find any specs............I just checked some other sites and their prices were from $60 to $75 for the same battery. I guess Majestic goofed. I'm too used to trusting their prices.
