Install finished but what battery should I get?

Here is my install.... I installed a Nintendo Wii and just wondering what a good battery would be? I want something that will hold a charge as long as possible under use without the engine running. A deep cycle?

Anything deep cycle will do, but for what you want, i would suggest running an extra batt in the trunk and getting rid of the capacitor.

X2 a second battery would be best!

way too much sq for me, but does that screen drop down from the trunk lid? thats nice.

you need either a Optima G31, NSB90 or Hawker 2150 battery. Good luck.

PS. nice cap!!

Completely redid my install (actually my buddie Shon did) so here it is... I ended up going with 2 12V35AH batteries in the trunk giving me 70AH reserve. I ran it for 3 hours the other night playing Wii etc and the voltage never dropped below 12.5V.

how does that exile amp sound go with your setup? my buddy had one and he told me that they don't give the power they are rated for..what is your experience with the exile amps?
