Well, to be a bit pedantic (sorry!), you should use a deep-cycle battery, as they are constructed differently, specifically for deep discharge. Car/jump start batteries may work for a while, but will wear out pretty quickly. You should also recharge the battery after every use (no matter what it is) as the battery will sulfate more quickly otherwise.
