Best type of battery for busking amp

Hi,

what's the best type of battery for a busking amp?

I have a couple of Electro Harmonix Freedom amps here.
Apparently this is the original they were supplied with.

Local buskers to me , tend to get 12V, 10Ah ones , second hand, from a
local motorcycle insurance write-off scrapper/parts seller. Busker use
is much lighter use than starter motors, and his basic check over before
sale , is adequate.

I was under the impression that conventional lead/acid car/motorbike
batteries cannot tolerate deep discharges for very long.

I've seen buskers with the super quiet small Honda generator.
