Aye, good plan. I might also look at getting a deep cycle battery,
possibly someting like the optima things that Burgerman used to flog.

Please don't. They are over hyped and over priced. You can get a battery
with a longer warranty for a lot less money from Halfords. And no lead
acid of any type likes being run totally flat. Although some types can
cope slightly better than others.

Quite a lot better. I'm not at all sure that it's enough of a margin to
justify the cost, but if it happens a lot it might be worth it from a
ease-of-life standpoint.
