  • 2002 Ford Excursion 5.4L 2V
Why did you pick this product vs others?: 2002 Ford Excursion 5.4L 2V. Exact Fit. Works as advertised.

  • Works as intended, fast charge.
Great price, and does what it should. However, a little warning: 4.0 Amps isn't enough once you get going, unless you are going out for a 5 minute job. If you are clearing a path, you may want to go to 6.0 amps.

  • Great charger for Makita cordless hammer drill
This charger works great with the Makita cordless hammer drill, 18v. The charger plugs into any socket and takes about 3 to 4 hours to fully charge the drill. I am happy with this combo.

  • That it works, and it’s on time
Good job

  • So it works as advertised but pricey
I got this to power a leaf blower. I only get 10-15 minutes or so off a charge. If you have serious blowing to do around the house or yard get two or three or just go corded electric. However I got this to keep my deck clean and to clear snow. So far works like a charm. No shoveling. If I buy another battery I might chance it on a knock off. I wanted an original Makita to see what the main is like. I went with this because I heard good things about the brand. So first foray into the Makita system. I’ve heard Milwaukee and DeWalt is what many contractors use. But I’m no where near a professional home owner. ... show more
