Hi Alan,

The sealed lead acid type batteries can be laid on their side no problem at all and without any leakage either.
I have done it this way for a few years now with My HMS Active (Pic is on my gallery) ....the battery in there is approx 7 inches long, 5 inches tall and about 2 inches wide... Being a warship with a narrow beam they tend to catch the wind a bit, so laying the battery flat in there helps a great deal.

Good luck with yours

Regards......Mark
