OEM Battery?
Is there a way to confirm/deny that I have the OEM battery? I purchased my vehicle used and my ultragauge is giving me some alarms on low battery voltage in the ~10V range. Thanks!

The OEM, will likely have a Honda or Acura label on it somewhere. It safe to say that if it doesn't have that, its not OEM.

Just curious... if it tested low then why does it matter? Throw it out and get a new one.

Agreed, for $100, why fool around?

He's probably trying to see if Acura will replace it. Acura's replacement batteries are not any better than the original. Get an AutoZone 51R and not worry about your battery.

The factory battery in my 06 was a Panasonic. Lasted 5 years.
