Description

The Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion battery charges faster and works longer than standard lithium-ion batteries, giving you and your cordless tools unmatched performance and productivity to take on the most demanding applications. The Makita 6.0Ah battery, model BL1860B, combines more run time (two-times more run time per charge than the Makita 3.0Ah battery) with a category-leading charge time of only 55 minutes so it spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For added convenience, it also features an on-board L.E.D. charge level indicator to monitor battery charge. The 18V LXT 6.0Ah battery is compatible only with Star Protection tools, indicated by the Star Symbol and/or Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool. There are over 125 Makita 18V cordless tools with Star Protection, and more are on the way. 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 (sold separately) 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.

  • Much longer battery life than the 4.0
Style: 1-Pack Pattern: Battery
I use these batteries for a number of different Makita tools, but the one that’s been most noticeable is with my leaf blower. These are more expensive, as well as a little bulkier, and heavier, but for me it’s worth the added expense. If you rarely use your batteries at home, then these probably aren’t worth the added expense. If you’re using them for work, and you’d rather not have to lug multiple batteries around then it’s probably worth it. I mostly use these around the house, but I use my leaf blower to dry my car with as it doesn’t leave hard water stains, or any residual lint or dust. So been a lot more convenient using this battery for that more than anything. I have two 4.0 and one 6.0, usually around the house the 4.0 is plenty for my impact or my drill. However, I was frustrated with my leaf blower dying on me before I had time to dry my vehicle with it. This battery has more than enough power to completely finish job that the 4.0 couldn’t handle. TLDR: It’s a great high quality product. But depending on your use case it might be a smarter buy to opt for a smaller size. These are priced in a similar manner to Micro SD cards or SSD’s; as in the price increases exponentially with minimal gains (compared to x2 increases in lower tiers.) ... show more

  • I own a lot of Makita tools 6.0 is the only way to go if you want long lasting charge
Style: 1-Pack Pattern: Battery
The thing about Makita it holds its charge the longest I have tried a lot of aftermarket batteries and they don’t even come close to compare to the Makita little more money but. Well worth it.

  • Worth it!
Style: 2-Pack Pattern: Battery
I ordered them on Monday, they arrived on Friday evening. They definitely have a longer run time than the 3.0Ah batteries I've been using. The difference is most evident when used with any 36v tools. 18v tools don't need this much juice anyway.

  • Excellent value
Style: 2-Pack Pattern: Battery
Makita batteries have been getting more expensive the last two years. This is a good deal. I have a dozen 5amps These 6s are a great addition for my 36v tools

  • A bit more power
Style: 2-Pack Pattern: Battery
Expensive for what you get but definitely helps when drilling concrete compared to the standard 3amp batteries. Could/Should last longer than they do between each charge. Takes forever to charge them, 30+ minutes

  • What else is there to say, other than, its Makita
Style: 2-Pack Pattern: Battery
These things run forever! Charging takes longer, but the extended runtime has helped to reduce the amount of batteries I carry around now.
