Solar poultry netting set up - battery question

Hi, crew!

I am trying to wrap my head around getting the right equipment for my rotational grazing set up for chickens or ducks using standard poultry netting (320 ft or so). I already have a 110 Watt solar panel with a built-in controller. I am planning to get a 1.7J Energizer for it (linked below) - I know, it is quite high of an energy output, but we are in bear country here.

My question is: what Ah rating of a deep cycle battery would be sufficient to run that energizer?

If you have a portable solar electrical poultry netting set up, could you share your specs for Energizer joules and Ah of batteries?


TIA
