Yellow Tops have a pretty low internal resistance, as well as having decent Ah ratings.

But unless you plan on playing with the vehicle off for long periods of time, I probably wouldn't go with a deep cycle.

im gonna be using a normal battery for car and a battery for the system (isolator in the middle)

Then you have a lot of options...Optima, Kinetik, any of the OEM's directly (Hawker, Rolls, Odyssey).

Lead acid FTW !

Kinetik 1800 can be found for around 200 on ebay. Maybe u should get a h/o alt if u dont have one, then get a battery.

It's hard to beat the spiral cell design... from the tests I've done the Optima is higher quality battery than the Orbital... higher lead purity, and better seperators, and acid concentration. In the spl tests I've been associated with the Optima G31 comes out on top almost everytime. I've seen and heard of tests done with an old Optima vs. a new Hawker or Northstar where it has been edged out, but just barely. I suspect if the Optima was properly cared for it would have had the edge in these tests aswell. Like was mentioned earlier you may want to look into an alternator... some good places to look would be Powermaster, Iraggi, Ohio Gen., etc.
