Product Description
Makita BL1850 18V 5.0Ah LXT Lithium-Ion Battery
The Makita BL1850 18V 5.0Ah LXT Lithium-Ion Battery is a high-capacity power source designed to keep Makita cordless tools running longer on demanding trade applications. Built for the Accessories/Batteries & Chargers category, it is ideal for professionals who need reliable runtime on site, from drilling and fastening to cutting and grinding. The 5.0Ah Lithium-Ion cells deliver significantly more working capacity than older Ni-Cad and Ni-MH technologies while remaining compact and lightweight to preserve tool balance and reduce user fatigue. Fast charge times of around 45 minutes with compatible Makita rapid chargers help minimise downtime between tasks, and the integrated LED charge level indicator allows quick checks of remaining power. Robust, shock-absorbing construction and multiple slide-on contacts provide a secure connection and consistent power delivery, while built-in protection circuitry helps guard against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. The Makita BL1850 18V 5.0Ah LXT Lithium-Ion Battery is compatible with Makita 18V LXT tools featuring a star symbol or yellow connector plate and is typically supplied as a single battery pack where stated.
