i don't want to sound like a buzz kill, but that is a very expensive price for a 30A-h battery, for the same price you should be looking at 80-100A-h.

Like martin said, if your only running the mount off it, then 17ah is fine, its once you start using it for Astrophotography that things get a little tricky.

The EQ6pro will draw upto 2amp hours flat out tugging a 10" + all the frills for AP, but while tracking, it barely kicks over at 500mA

Hope that helps you
Brendan
