The size is right on the money. The Power Sonic PSH-12180FR is 7.14(L) x 3.03(W) x 6.59(H) where the Odyssey is 7.15(L) x 3.00(W) x 6.65(H). Would only need to place a battery terminal type connector on the negative cable (battery side).

Here's where it gets confusing...

The Power Sonic battery is a 21Ah battery where the Odyssey battery is a 16Ah battery. The Odyssey battery lists is CCA as 170 where the Power sonic doesn't provide that data. But it does provide a wHr rating of 252. I'm not sure how that relates to CCA or if the figures can be compared in any way.

It's possible that the Odyssey is a better start battery...but we wont know until someone (in a cold climate) tests it.
