[VHFcontesting] Rovers: Your battery choice is...???

>Please post your choice of battery and the benefits you find in using  it.
 
I have been using two large Die Hard deep cycle batteries. Going to three  in 
September as I am adding after burners on 2M and 432. I usually try to  
recharge overnight although I'm not sure that it's really needed. I've  never had a 
problem with them. I also use them in my fishing boat in between  contests.
 
What I really need to look into is a battery combiner or isolator so that I  
can charge the batteries from the car alternator. Any good proven  ideas?
