Still expensive to just pull off with some pliers in case it does not work. Think I will be sticking with the standard key for now.
A transponder does not need power to opperate, it uses the car transponder induction field to provide is own power (that is why it is so sensitive for distance).
Transponders can be pre-programmed (like accord one) or can be Reprogrammed like Civic.
I also think that 2006 Accords will have the same type like Civic.
