I upgraded to a Waeco 26 amp battery for my CPC1100 and 4 dew heater controller and it pretty much lasted all night.
But many guys use the smaller starter packs successfully.
Difference $336 compared to about $50.

But you must try not to fully discharge them and you must recharge them ASAP after using them or they will die a quick death.
That is a pretty big price difference! How can I hook it upto the scope?
