Anyone recognize these batteries?

System · May 2008

Just checking out this water / RE system and I would be curious to know what type of batteries these are?

VRLA gelled-electrolyte and sealed construction eliminates periodic watering, corrosive acid fumes, and spills. Increased durability for heavy demand applications.

Anyone recognize the label?

I tried contacting them but no luck so far.

Simon,

Can't be sure, but it looks like a "DEKA East Penn" brand called "Dominator"...

Simon,

I'd agree with Bill's assessment that these are VRLA batteries from East Penn (Deka and MK brands). They're either group size 4D or 8D. Here are links to more info:

P.S. Thanks for your note!
