Trunk Battery Basics

What exactly am i looking for when shopping for a battery/batteries?

I've used the search feature and got a few recommended battery names but i just wanted to know what it is that makes one better than the next.

If possible can you help me pick a battery for my setup.

Not looking to purchase multiple batteries or upgrading the alternator that's somethings i'll have to do later when the funds are up. So for this setup i'm just looking to add one affordable battery that'll get the job done.

going to be running (2) 15's on 3000w total

Any suggestions?

I see you're running a spv70, you think one of those will be good enough for what i'm running or would i need more?

MAKE SURE ITS SEALED, and deep cycle, other wise u risk the possibility of toxic fumes and battery acid leaking= no good
