Bottom line, keep it charged and it will be fine. Try not to listen to the stereo with the car off, ect. You will also have to purchase adapters for the screw in terminals.
Also they make a metal jacket version "MJ" which is the same battery but has... a metal jacket around the plastic area. It's way cooler.

Thanks for the insight guys. I do not have any extra stereo equipment nor do i plan on putting any in so I think itll do just fine. I guess the only issue I may run into is maybe the battery running out on me as I only drive my S 3 or 4 times a month.

I use the DEKA EXT16 and it's been great.
It's been said the Braille and Odyssey are just rebadged Deka's selling for $3x+
The carbon fiber Braille is pretty cool for show though.

I have run the PC680 pretty much the life of my car. They last me roughly 3 years which is about as long as the OEM lasted me. There definitely is very limited reserve time so I don't sit and listen to the radio without the car running. It's worked fine living in the Phoenix and Vegas deserts and also when I lived up in the in the snow on the mountain. I would recommend keeping it on a battery tender if you don't plan on driving the car for more than a week. The one I have now has the Metal Jacket (MJ) however, the previous ones did not. We'll see if maybe this one will last a little longer.
