You can use a large car battery without a problem.

It works even better if you keep it charged with a split charge relay kit like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12V-30AMP-SPLIT-CHARGE-RELAY-KIT-SELF-SWITCHING-/110950538090?pt=UK_Campervan_Caravan_Accessories&hash=item19d52adb6a#ht_3189wt_1397

Either.

Go to a local garage and offer them a tenner for a reasonable one they were going to get £6 from the scrappy for.
It's a game of three halves!
