Don't think Sears still has their deal with Enersys regarding the odyssey/DH Platinum. Don't think sears will be around in 4 years.
My Northstar-27 needed an initial deep cycle and high amp recharge before it would rest over 13v. Still rests at 13.06v Performing well in double duty as house and engine battery, but recharged very well too. I am around 400 deep cycles and closing in on the end of my third year with it. No 'just as new' claim from me, but still performing very well. I'm impressed with it so far.
