He used size U1.  Sears has it as a wheelchair battery, I forget the
price.  I think the one he used was labelled as a golf cart battery but not
sure.  It's pretty small for a golf cart battery.  The one in Sears was
labelled I think 31 amp-hours, but you'd get less in practical service,
especially if you wanted it to last.
