The Makita 18-Volt 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 5.0Ah battery has a category-leading charge time of only 45 minutes, so it spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger. The 18-Volt LXT 5.0Ah battery is compatible only with Star Protection tools, indicated by the Star Symbol and/or Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool. Makita 18-Volt 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. 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.

I am very pleased with the recent purchase of 2 Makita 18 volt Lithium -Ion batteries. They arrived earlier than expected. Have one in service and find it noticeably more powerful. Still operating on the first charge. Great price. Excellent service from HD.

This pair of 3.0Ah batteries is supplementing my original 1.5Ah batteries. These batteries keep my older Makitas running and work with the newer brushless tools which I am considering buying.

Great batteries, huge capacity. Seem to last forever. Can’t beat the price as I got these free when I bought a saw.
