MK Battery
MK Battery has the most extensive distribution systems for Sealed Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA) batteries. Solar energy storage needs a deep cycle battery with thick plates for a constant, on-demand flow over a long period, that is cycled daily. MK Battery's extensive knowledge with VRLA batteries makes them a leader in solar energy storage.
Deka batteries are MK battery's main line of solar storage with a variety of battery options for optimal, long-life solar energy storage:
- Deka Solar Gel MonoBloc Batteries - 6 and 12 volt
- 10% more electrolyte than AGM technology for longer life and minimal dry out.
- Increased durability and deep cycle ability for heavy demand applications.
- Less than 2% per month self-discharge means little deterioration during transport and storage.
- Deka Solar AGM Monobloc Batteries - 2 volt
- Completely maintenance-free.
- Less than 2% per month self-discharge means little deterioration during transport and storage.
- Specialized valve design manufactured and tested in-house to 100% reliability.
- Deka Solar Flooded Monobloc Batteries - 6 and 12 volt
- Reliable, low-maintenance power.
- Designed for deep cycle renewable energy applications.
- Individual plate formation (IPF®) ensures consistent voltage and charging from cell to cell, battery to battery and between strings.

Life cycles of these batteries vary from high to moderate, depending on the model selected. MK Battery provides ideal for solar energy storage, RV / marine, alkaline/specialty batteries, and battery chargers.
MK Battery began in 1983 and is headquartered in California, with distribution centers located in the USA and worldwide. In 1995, MK Battery was acquired by East Penn Manufacturing Co., who is based in Pennsylvania. East Penn Manufacturing, established in 1946, is a leading global supplier of Sealed VRLA batteries for use in deep-cycle and standby power applications. 80% of its products are manufactured in the USA. East Penn Manufacturing is a progressive manufacturer and they are committed to safe recycling. 100% of their lead, plastic, and acid components are recycled and 100% of the industrial wastewater is recycled too.
