For something like the Corsair, you really need much more than a 7 Amp Hr.
battery!   Get a full size car or Marine battery, fully charged.  The rig
wants 12 volts and a bit more for most stable operation, and I think the
Corsairs pulled 20 amps on transmit unless you had the power reduced some
way.
