I have used cteks (motorsports version and basic version) on Odysseys (PCS 925) for years with no apparent ill effects. In fact my current one may have been in service for 7+years. It was load tested a specialty shop a couple years back and had no issues.

I have the car plugged in most of the time it is sitting and really take care of it though.

Yes I am probably running on borrowed time

I used the simple ctec/Porsche-labeled no buttons model on an Odyssey in my '01S for at least 5 years and it did a perfect job in that it kept enough of a charge on a battery to start the car in cold weather but that battery was in a car where the battery was always fully charged when stopped.

Since I had a separate charger from the same era, I used the charger on any run down batteries and saved the maintainer for hibernation duties.

Optimal, maybe not. But it worked for me.
