Replaces DC18SD / DC18RAMakita DC18RC 18v LXT Li-Ion Fast Battery Charger 7.2 / 14.4 / 18v
The DC18RC fast charger, also known as the Makita DC18RC Li-ion 7.2 / 14.4 / 18v LXT Charger, uses Intelligent Charging Technology to control current, voltage and temperature to maximize the battery life. The DC18RC can charges a BL1830B 18v LXT 3.0Ah battery in approximately 22 minutes - and to the fullest charge.
The MAKITA DC18RC has a cooling fan and Active 3 Controls. This means that during the loading of the charging voltage, charging current, and temperature is held in the holes. The cooling system blows cool air into the battery. As a result, high temperatures occur in the battery, so that the battery life is extended, and the charging process is accelerated.
Replaces DC18SD / DC18RA.
FEATURES

Fast charging - charges a Makstar 18v LXT Li-Ion 3.0Ah battery in only 22 minutes
Built-in CPU - gathers information from the battery's memory chip to determine optimum charging method
Forced air cooling fan - cools the battery to minimise charging time
Digital power display identifies the condition of the battery and charging condition
Makita’s 18v & 14v batteries have a built in memory chip that records the battery usage history. While the battery is connected it will transmit the data to the charger
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. A great improvement compared to older technologies like Ni-Cad

Superb device, charges 3Ah 18V battery in no time at all. Great design from Makita, including fan so that the battery does not heat up.

Big improvement over the standard charger although the stated charge times for the various capacity of batteries is slightly out and tends to take 10minutes or so more.
