Advanced American Technology and the use of the most modern computer-aided design and manufacturing techniques combine to make MK / Deka Solar batteries the standard by which all other solar batteries are measured. Our Solar VRLA Sealed Batteries are the best the PV / Solar Battery market has to offer. Made in the United States in a factory that exceeds all environmental regulations, the DEKA Solar 8GGC2 is a completely maintenance-free, 6V, 198Ah (C/100 rate) gel deep cycle battery with T881 terminals, designed specifically for renewable energy applications.
Key Features & Benefits
High Capacity (198Ah @ C/100): Provides substantial energy storage for 6V battery banks. For 12V systems, connect two 8GGC2 batteries in series.
Completely Maintenance Free: Sealed VRLA gel construction eliminates periodic watering, corrosive acid fumes, and spills — no watering, no equalization charging required.
Genuine Gel Technology: Electrolyte will not stratify, allowing for faster recharging and increased durability and deep cycle ability for heavy demand applications.
Low Stand Loss (<2% per month): Little deterioration during transport and storage, ensuring batteries arrive ready for service and maintain charge during idle periods.
Made in the USA: Manufactured in the United States using advanced American technology and computer-aided design for consistent, reliable quality.
Reinforced Case Design: Resists bulging and meets safety requirements for long-term reliability in demanding solar applications.
Heat-Sealed Construction: Case and cover are heat sealed and 100% tested to prevent leaks.
Individual Plate Formation (IPF®): Ensures voltage matching between cells for optimal battery performance and longevity.
Tested to IEC-61427: GEL Monobloc batteries have been rigorously tested to international renewable energy standards.
Rated Non-Spillable: Certified by ICAO, IATA, and DOT for safe air transport — no special containers needed.
Recyclable & Environmentally Responsible: MK / DEKA takes pride in their recycling efforts, products, and people.
