[TenTec] Hercules II power Supply Options?

I've been thinking of getting a Hercules II to run with the Omni V, but 
wonder what sort of power supplies are suitable.  Some people use deep 
cycle batteries with chargers, but right now, I am more inclined to use 
line power.  Does the MFJ (gasp, choke)switching supply for their 500 
watt mobile amplifier work adequately with a Hercules II?  Or, does it 
take a stack of Astron supplies to keep one of these adequately fed?  It 
seems like the amplifiers are a whole lot more common than are the 100 
amp Ten Tec power supplies.
