This is my husband’s favorite drill. I bought him the 5.0Ah battery and he loves the extended time, not having to stop to charge it is a game changer.

Great charger. Charge time listed by Makita was pretty accurate. Easy to attach/remove the batteries. Lights were clear on the status of the charge. The only thing I wasn’t a huge fan of was the amount of plastic that this product was made of, but I don’t see any durability issues with that. Same as other brands for their charging stations as well so I guess that’s the industry standard.

After the $150 sticker shock for this battery subsided, I have been completely satisfied with its longevity while using it to drive deck screws. Lasted a solid 6 hours with continuous use and the charger had it ready to go again in roughly 30 minutes.Highly recommend!

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.
