Makita BL1850B (196673-6) LXT 18v 5.0Ah Lithium-Ion Battery
Where uninterrupted run time is critical, such as on remote construction locations or where charging capacity is distant and would mean valuable time lost away from the operating point, extended run time is all important. The Makita BL1850B 5.0Ah 18v Li-ion battery provides 66% more run time than that of the 3.0Ah battery whilst maintaining the same size and weight so maintaining the excellent balance and comfort of a Makita tool in use.
The introduction of a 5.0Ah battery option will suit those operators who regularly undertake high-load operations or are frequently working on large sites far distant from a charging point. The greater capacity within the 5.0Ah battery protects against over-heating and high discharge during heavy demand operations, thus extending the working life of the battery. The need to carry additional batteries, or be able to recharge batteries regularly, can be avoided by choosing the 5.0Ah battery option.
Recharge time for the BL1850B 5.0Ah battery is just 45 minutes when using a Makita DC18RC or DC18RA fast charger. This compares with 22 minutes for the popular 3.0Ah 18v Makita Li-ion battery or 36 minutes for the 4.0Ah Li-ion battery. The battery capacity indicator LED's which show you how much power you have left at the touch of a button.
This BL1850B 5.0Ah battery is compatible with all Makita 18v Li-ion tools that have a star symbol on the connector plate, or a yellow connector plate with a star on, or have a yellow connector plate only.

Great battery - 5ah at the same weight as my older 3ah batteries. Forget cheap Makita copies - I've had them and they stop working after a couple of months hard use. Stick to these. Long charge period (50 mins), very very long usage but absolutely does not work/fit with my older SDS and Hammer drill Makita LXT kit, but does with my newer stuff. You're going to need at least 2 depending on how much you push them if you need constant access to tools on the go. Highly recommend but take note of which LXT items you have as not all fits this battery. Look for a star on battery connector on tool - those fit fine.

Excellent battery, holds much more power than the 3.0Ah. Also comes with an LED charge indicator which is a bonus. If you are using high power tools such as the Makita grinders this battery is essential .

This battery is excellent, as are all Makita products. As they say, if you want the best, fit the best.
