DEKA Outdoorsman 522FMF 55Ah battery

EAST PENN MANUFACTURING CO., INC. (DEKA) is one of the largest and most advanced battery manufacturers in the US and around the world

A Proud Past with a Bright Future. East Penn began as a dream of the Breidegam family. In 1946, DeLight Jr., a young Air Force veteran, started a battery business with his father, DeLight Sr. The location of their business was a small, one-room creamery in the village of Bowers, PA.

Wartime made for scarce battery materials, but there was big demand for rebuilt batteries so returning GIs could get their vehicles running again. DeLight and his father filled that need by collecting old batteries and rebuilding them to new

Lawn & Garden.

From the hottest summer to the coldest winter – no other lawn and garden battery provides maintenance-free performance like the rugged Outdoorsman Battery from Deka. Guaranteed Superior Performance. Because East Penn has built more than 250 quality control checks into the manufacturing process, Outdoorsman batteries guarantee superior performance – every time.

DEKA argues that "WE LOOK AT THE BEST TO DO BETTER ... MUCH BETTER!"
