The new Makita 1.5Ah battery with a 22 minute fast charge time with a DC10SB charger or 50 minute standard charge time with a DC10WD charger PLEASE NOTE - when new, these batteries require approx. 6 to 8 full charges to reach their optimum performance Equipped with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to protect against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating EFFICIENCY : Integrated L.E.D. battery charge level indicator allows user to monitor battery charge Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion batteries charge faster and work longer than standard lithium-ion batteries, giving you and your Makita cordless tools unmatched performance and productivity for demanding applications. The Makita 3.0Ah battery (BL1830B) has a category-leading charge time of only 30 minutes, so it spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger. It also features an L.E.D. charge level indicator to monitor battery charge. Makita is the innovation leader in cordless tool technology and has the world’s cordless tool line-up powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries.

Makita technology delivers category-leading charge time so the battery spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger (charger not included) Battery delivers consistent power and run time in extreme temperatures, even in winter (-4°F/-20°C) One of the greatest advantages of Makita Lithium-Ion Batteries is that they can be charged anytime without waiting for power’s complete deployment.Looking at the graphics, it can be noticed the difference in charging between Well Balanced Charging and Unbalanced charging. As you can expect, the Makita Lithium-Ion charges all cells equally while also discharging them evenly, resulting in all cells being used to their maximum potential, increasing the battery performance and charge time. The Makita 18v 3.0Ah Lithium-Ion battery contains high energy density technology. Being Lithium-Ion, the BL1830B has no memory effect and is much lighter than other battery chemistries. 22 minute re-charge in DC18RC charger as well as battery capacity indicator LED's which show you how much power you have left at the touch of a button. Fits all Makita 18v LXT Li-Ion tools with Makita 'Star' technology so if your tool also has a 'Star' you can be assured of battery protection. All Makita 18v and 14v feature a built-in memory chip, allowing one to record the battery usage history. Moreover, the built-in CPU will communicate with each battery allowing it to determine its condition (over-discharging, heat abuse etc.) while also facilitating an optimized charging system. Charge times: 14.4/18V 3.0Ah battery in 22 mins 18V 4.0Ah battery in 36 mins 18V 5.0Ah battery in 45 mins This 6.0Ah battery will set new standards in run time, particularly when used on efficient brushless motor tools or in tandem on select Makita 'X2' - Twin 18v tools. Makita 18V X2 LXT (36V) cordless tools are powered by two 18V batteries, and are engineered to deliver corded power and run time for select highest-demand tools like saws, blowers and trimmers – but without leaving the 18V battery platform or investing in heavier, high-voltage batteries. MAKITA 6AH BATTERY FEATURES

Charge Times: 2 x 14.4/18V 3.0Ah Batteries in 22 mins 2 x 18V 4.0Ah Batteries in 36 mins 2 x 18V 5.0Ah Batteries in 45 minsWith over 100 power toolsacross the 18v range, we can understand the importance of choosing the correct battery for each power tool and vice versa. Makita 18V batteriesfeature one of the fastest charge times in their categories, allowing users to maximize their usage. The Li-ion range delivers 430% more working capacity during it's lifetime compared to Ni-Cad and is 40% Lighter than Ni-MH. The Li-ion has minimal depletion of power during use or in storage over it's lifetime.

COMPATIBILITY : Compatible only with Makita 18V Lithium-Ion tools with Star Symbol™ and/or Yellow Battery Receivers The Makita Bl1840Battery features the same design, weight and Lithium-Ion technology as the BL1830and BL1850while returning increased battery charge, facilitated by the 4.0 amp.Compatible only with Star Protection tools, indicated by the Star Symbol™ and/or Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool DC18RD is a two port fast charger that is able to charge two Makita Li-ion batteries (14.4V-18V) at the same time, as fast as DC18RC charges one battery. The BL1830B is compatible only with Star Protection tools, indicated by the Star Symbol™ and/or Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion is the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery The CPU built into the charger communicates with the individual battery and analyses its condition; the battery may have been abused by heat, overdischarging, or weathered by cycle-age.

A great advantage of Lithium Ion technology is that it provides the user with the possibility to charge the batteries anytime, without any need to wait for their complete power deployment. INNOVATION : Integrated L.E.D. battery charge level indicator allows user to monitor battery charge The new Makita 4.0Ah battery with a 60 minute fast charge time with a DC10SB charger or 130 minute standard charge time with a DC10WD charger. The Li-ion range delivers 430% more working capacity during it's lifetime compared to Ni-Cad and is 40% Lighter than Ni-MH. The Li-ion has minimal depletion of power during use or in storage over it's lifetime.
