Braille batteries are rebadged Deka batteries?

[Silverfc88]

So sesolcSTI pointed this out to me because he is in the market for a new battery and I've never heard of this and thought I should share it with everyone else. Basically I found a couple threads stating that the Deka ETX14 is the same exact battery as the Braille battery. Exact same weight, same size and test's at the same CCA's. Even the new battery that is released for everyday use that is 15lbs from Braille is the same specs as the Deka ETX20L. The Deka batteries can be had for around $60 without the terminals.



Some tests on the Deka batteries:

Braille responding on a EvolutionM. They don't sound to happy, but they don't confirm or deny that they are the same battery. So could it be that the Deka and Braille batteries are made by the same company and they are branded with the other companies stickers.
