Description

Build your own Makita tool kit with the 18V Lithium-Ion Battery and Charger Starter Pack. Makita offers over 100 cordless tools and most are available as "bare tools" (tool only, no batteries or charger included). Pick up the Makita Battery and Charger Starter Pack, then purchase the 18V "bare tools" you need to get the job done. It's an ideal way to start building a Makita cordless tool line-up. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries resist self-discharge so they’re ready for use even after long periods of storage. The Makita Rapid Optimum Charger is a smart-charging system that communicates with the battery during the charging process to monitor current, voltage and temperature. This advanced charging technology helps optimize battery life and deliver a faster charge. In addition, the Charger has a built-in fan to cool the battery for faster and more efficient charging, even in hot weather conditions. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created STAR Protection Computer Controls™. STAR Protection is communication technology that allows the tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. Makita, the innovation leader in cordless tool technology, has the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by 18V lithium-ion slide- style batteries.

  • Great job Makita I love the price
Size: 5.0 Ah Color: Black
Fastest charger I've owned and the battery lasts for like 14-20 hours on my fan.

Great buy as you get the charger for the price of a battery - I used my new Christmas Drill with the battery for drilling four holes through my F 250 heavy duty truck frame and still fully charged.

  • Works but there was an issue
Size: 5.0 Ah Color: Black
Everything worked fine. The only thing I found troubling is the battery was fully discharged and it's date label was 2022. Since the battery is a couple years old at this point, I have no idea how long this battery was sitting, fully discharged. The reason this is not good is because Lithium batteries degrade when they're run to zero. With Makita batteries, for max battery life its best to recharge them once they hit two bars. The company I work for exclusivly uses Makita tools and I've never been able to discharge a Makita battery to where no bars light up on the Battery Level indicator. No bars light up when I tested it at first. It did take 45 minutes to recharge the battery which is normal for a 5AH Makita battery. ... show more

  • Seems great, time will tell if it lasts!
Size: 5.0 Ah Color: Black
First off, I already owned this charger from a kit I bought a while back which included 2 2AH batteries, an impact driver, a drill and this charger in a nice bag. The charger works fine and charges quickly. It was pretty much spot on at 55 minutes for a 5AH battery, as described on the charger packaging. I knew it had a fan to keep the batteries cool and was already accustomed to the sound of the fan. Some people say it is loud, but it's quieter than an electric toothbrush, so I'm not sure what they are complaining about unless they got faulty units. The battery and charger did have a "plastic" smell when using them, but not any sort of burning smell. It was just the smell of new plastic. The battery is big and heavy, but not too much considering it is a 5AH battery. The battery doesn't have the "tabs" as noted by another review and has no issues going into my 18v LXT driver and drill (white/black versions). The battery arrived with only 1 bar of charge, so I charged it up and had no issues. I purchased this from David's Tools seller on Amazon for $88.95. The only complaint I have is the battery, while in the new packaging, was jammed into a medium-sized flat rate box from USPS. The box was bulging due to the shape of the battery packaging and the battery packaging was slightly malformed because of this. ... show more

  • The best battery pack I have ever owned
Size: 5.0 Ah Color: Black
This battery is long-lasting, has significant power while reasonable weight. The quality of the product is so good, it makes you want to buy Makita tools just for the trouble-free battery.

  • ** Seems the new LXT's don't work on some older equip. I have a fix **
Size: 5.0 Ah Color: Black
Don't buy the knock-off product, they don't work right. Get Makita brand. Now, there is a little area on the battery that was left on during the extrusion process, one one side of the battery. You have to get the Dremel out and saw it off. It's on the underside, and is about .4" x .2" or so. It is what prevents the battery from sliding all of the way on, you'll figure it out. Just compare to a working battery. Once you figure it out, takes about 1 minute to grind it off. I have 10+ year old tools, all working nearly great still, and to get higher Ah, like 4.0 or 5.0 I guess this is what you have to do now for some of the tools. This fix makes it so the battery works on all tools I have. Goofy move of Makita to do this. But the batteries and product are awesome. ... show more
