Default Need a sealed battery

I need a sealed battery for my dual battery setup. What do you guys recommend. It needs to be some what small though. I have a yellow top that is a little too big. It is roughly 10x8x8 thats leaving room for terminals. It is going to run all of my accessories (6 driving lights, amps, cb, winch, and whatever else I decide to hook up).

Go with the biggest you can fit. If you can squeeze the 1400, do it.
