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 5.0 Ah battery, model BL1850B, combines more run time (65% more run time per charge than the Makita BL1830 battery) with a category-leading charge time of only 45 minutes so it spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For added convenience, it also features an on-board LED charge level indicator to monitor battery charge. The 18-Volt LXT 5.0 Ah 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 are 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.

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.

They seem to be lasting longer then the 3.0 I have. Not happy with the charging time, it states it’s a quick charger, but takes an hour to recharge the batteries.

These battery packs are as good as it gets, very easy to use, and charging rate time is excellent. Now, as far as how long they last when used, you will be amazed. I’ve used all kinds of battery packs, and they are all different depending on the tool they are driving, but these rank up there with the best of them. When they say “high capacity”, they definitely meet that definition. So, yes I would definitely recommend these if compatible with your tools.
