Makita DC18RD LXT 14.4-18V Twin Fast Charger
The Makita DC18RD LXT 14.4-18V Twin Fast Charger is a dual-port rapid charger designed to keep Makita cordless tools powered with minimal interruption. Built for professional users, this power tool charger simultaneously charges two 14.4V or 18V LXT slide-style Li-ion batteries, matching the speed of Makitas single-port rapid chargers while doubling throughput. Intelligent charging electronics monitor current, voltage and temperature, while the integrated dual-fan cooling system circulates air through each battery to reduce heat build-up and support long-term battery health. Clear LED status indicators and a full charge sound alert make it easy to see when packs are ready to return to work, helping to organise battery rotation on busy sites and in workshops. Compatible with Makita 14.4V and 18V LXT Li-ion batteries, and able to charge certain Ni-MH packs with an adaptor where specified, the Makita DC18RD LXT 14.4-18V Twin Fast Charger is supplied as a twin port charger body only.

- Dual port design charges two Makita 14.4V-18V LXT Li-ion batteries at the same time to minimise downtime on site
- Rapid charging performance delivers full charges in as little as 15-55 minutes, depending on battery capacity, to keep tools working
- Built-in cooling fan and forced air system help control battery temperature for faster, more reliable charging cycles
- Intelligent charging electronics actively monitor current, voltage and temperature to optimise battery life
- LED charging displays for each bay provide clear, at-a-glance status of battery charge and diagnostics
- Full charge sound alert notifies you when batteries are ready, so you can swap packs without constantly checking
- Compatible with Makita slide-style 14.4V and 18V LXT Li-ion batteries, with optional adaptor support for Ni-MH packs
- Robust, low-profile charger body is suited to workshop benches, vans and demanding trade environments
