Can anyone give me some recommendations for a good battery backup system using a marine battery and inverter?

there are at least 2 threads right here regarding this, (https://www.hearth.com/talk/threads/backup-battery-to-the-rescue.133592/#post-1794633) Harman recommends the ACP AX1500 apparantly, you will need a pure sine inverter \ backup in any case, Cyber power makes one also, and then wire a marine deep cycle battery into the UPS, the ACP unit from what I read here is a 24 V unit so you would need 2 batterys in series to work this, not sure about the Cyberpower unit batteries
 
Thanks for the referenced thread and the advice.
 
my cyberpower 1500lcd is also 2 8ah bats running 24v. I don't have a larger battery on it. it runs about an hour like this.
