Ridecamp: [RC] Trailer batteries

Question:  What is the best way to wire a trailer to run on batteries?  Best kind of batteries?  How long should power last?  Are solar batteries any good?  I'm not wanting to power a whole lot - just the trailer lights and fans in the summer and an electric blanket in the winter.  The one trailer place we went to told us that he could wire the trailer to run on batteries, but they would only last for 4 hours (which is kinda useless)
