>with 75min reserve capacity... yet it only has 66min reserve capacity.
That smells like an advertising gimmick, if you test it after charging the battery to 15.0V or 14.5V down to 10.5V then obviously you get longer service, I wouldn't worry too much about that.
>Whats the best deepcycle 12v battery i can get.
You could look at the size of the battery tray under the hood (and available height) if a larger battery will fit, that should improve reserve capacity.
Another thing to look at is the number of charge/discharge cycles, ...and 300+ discharge/recharge cycles, cheap to buy could mean expensive to replace often.
The yellow warning light started turning on and staying on- I think it means there is a problem with charging but for me it just meant my new 12V battery was going to die. I purchased a better one and he dealer gave me my money back for the dead 12V battery I had just purchased last year.
This one is working for me so far: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0013ZGZ9Q/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
