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

Great Makita product, the best thing about it was the price, by far the cheapest price around with excellent delivery time.

I already have the double rapid charger for the workshop but I bought a Makita stick vacuum recently mainly for the car, but when my missus saw it in action she seconded it for the house. So it follows she wants her own charger indoors - hence the purchase. Just as quick as my double unit but a bit neater. Great stuff Makita.

My old blue chargers were getting old and noisy and having had several batteries die recently, wasn't taking any chances. This black unit is quiet, plays the sane silly tunes and does the job. Can't ask for much more.
