If it is regularly attached to the tow vehicle I'd imagine you could get away with a relatively small (cheap) car battery on the trailer and lightweight cable with in-line fuse running from the vehicle battery. The small battery would have enough poke to tip the trailer a few times, and would be constantly re-charged off the vehicle when connected.

You would need to disconect the cable before tipping or the fuse will blow:thumbup1:

I've been running that set up for 15 yrs with no problem. It needs to be installed properly and never flatten your battery. I'm still on the original Landy battery from 2003 as well.
