Or spring for one of these.

Very expensive comparatively but it can be mounted upright or upside down or 
sideways.
It never needs water or acid added and vibration won't hurt it.

I would suggest locating a true deep cycle like used in golf carts, as
opposed to the marine battery.  A local golf cart place here had 12v used
batteries that I was able to buy for about $50....  Might be worth looking
around.
