What about Braille? They are made by Deka.

I was thinking about one of these myself.

I still have a Sears Platnium marine battery that is my #2 battery, thing is awesome.
For an expo rig the #2 battery you want a deep cycle battery.
For the main battery, something reliable. Also these days a sealed battery for off-road is almost a must.
 
Deka is a good battery. I have been using Powerstride the last decade or so... house brand.
 
My red top optima (american made) finally started to go after 11 years. I really wanted a X2 but at over 300.00 the value wasn't there. I mean if a lead acid battery lasts more than 3 1/2 years then I see three $100.00 batteries as a better value. And they will probably last 5 to 7 years. I went with Deka @ around 100.00 totally satisfied with it so far.
 
Anyone know who makes the Duracell automotive batteries?
Batteries plus has the Duracell AGM 34/78 (so dual post) for $205?
