Battery recommendations and location for lighting kit?

Wondered if anyone has installed the lighting kit and running power to a small battery in the bed. Does the lighting kit work with a cigarette to DC 5521 adapter? I was thinking to velcro this battery pack like this to bed.

Yes, I did exactly that. Just plug a male-male 5521 into the lights, or a cigarette to 5521 should also work.
Only thing to be aware of is I think the lights pull about 50watts when all on, so make sure the battery pack can output 5Amps@12v.
I did this so when my ecoflow is out the truck I can still use the lights.

I used a “RoyPow 30W PD Portable Charger with 12V 10A Constant Voltage Cigarette Lighter Socket” from amazon.

Someone on here mounted a pouch on their molle panel at the front of the camper and put the battery pack in there. I’ll see if I can find it.

I saw someone else in the forum use this one and I copied the idea. Its a little pricey but I like it a lot. Has a pretty strong magnet and I stick it to my lower molle panel.
