That is an interesting position. Most industry watchers feel that East Penn is the highest quality manufacturer in the USA. Also as mentioned before, all Duracell automotive batteries are made by East Penn, but this only started in the last 1-2 years. Deka is also an East Penn brand. The Douglas battery manufacturing was bought by East Penn. Most West Marine batteries are East Penn. They make tons of batteries for auto parts stores like O"Reillys .
