OP mentioned airline compatibility and portability as a must. a Gel cell also weighs way too much compared to modern lithium tech.
@OP, in that list I'd choose the first one as it's apparently regulated 12V DC but as you mention, the amperage
could be an issue.
The 5Ah is usually only when slewing for many mounts. You can also move it manually
My EQ6-R draws 1Ah or thereabouts when not slewing.
