i'm not sure the deep-cycle batteries (aka marine batteries) are "the" thing anymore. LiFePO4 is where it's at. they sprouted up a whole ecosystem of chargers, solar panels, etc that was quite mediocre just 10 years or so ago.

i have one i use for my ham radio and i can dang-near neglect the thing vs the type of stuff from back in the day.. trickle charging and time consuming battery maintenance and all that.
