And no I don't know how to tell the difference.

I did a seach on Google and came up with these......

if it's any help ScoobySport use dot5 with their Group N brake kit

 

dot5 as a "better" fluid is a common misconception...........
the DOT no. refers to the ability to repel moisture and not, as many retailers would have you believe (or maybe don't know??), to the temperature range/performance of the fluid!!
most "race" fluids are only dot4 and yet are better than dot5's (in general)...........dot5 was developed for specific manufacturers ABS systems.
we normally supply either a v.high quality dot4 (£5/litre) for normal use, and race dot4 for track/competition type scenario's (£10+/500ml)
